Creed – Millésime Impérial

In hour 4 of my first try of this and I have to say I just don't get it. I know I'm not going anosmic because I had a can of tuna for lunch today, hours ago, and can smell that on my fingers. But I can hardly smell this stuff, and what I can smell, is nothing to write home about. Opened with orange, nice enough if you like orange, and I can smell what people are calling melon, nice enough if you like melon. But a few hours into it, in the drydown, there's not much at all but a quietly dwindling melon, and, there is a single note that I can only describe as "body-odor-like", which is definitely not pleasant. But I have to inhale deeply to get even that, because this stuff doesn't smell much, or especially nice, to me. I'm at a loss to understand all the raves for it. It just seems like there's no "there" there. Especially at Creed prices.
