Nice, versatile and cheap fragrance
First off, Momentum Intense is considered similar to CH Men. IMHO, there are some similarities but BMI does its own thing and is not a clone by any means. Gone is the leather note from CH Men and it is fresher, with something of an aquatic aspect. To my nose, CH Men is much smoother and sensual than BMI.

For reference I would say this is a mix of 2/3 CH Men (minus the leather) with 1/3 Dylan Blue. This is a gross oversimplification but it gives you an idea.

As far as performance, I get good performance out of this. Projection is average, 1-2h of moderate projection, then it starts diminishing slowly to a skin scent. Longevity is very good. I usually wear this to work, spray it at around 8:00, and at 18:00 when I get home I can still smell it, though it is weak by then. As a disclaimer I have only tried it spring/summer, but I imagine this will work all year round except the hottest and coldest days.

Price is very good at around 30-35€ for 100ml online.

All in all this is a nice cheap fragrance that although not mind-blowingly good, has good performance, is office friendly and as such it can be a good addition to a beginner's collection like me :) or someone who just wants an affordable versatile fragrance for everyday use.

ahhh, uhhh ohhh
When i smell this fragrance, instantly scream :"ahhh, uhhh ohhh" like Alex perfume (an Italian influencer who promoted this fragrance).
More peaple get me compliment when i wear this perfume.
Don't wear only in winter and for 30$ it's the best buy, blind buy.
P.s. i forgot, an italian singer already has review this parfume, in one frase of his choruses: Dolce un pò salato.

Bentley's Wood Class
A blind purchase from the WWW. Once again :)
Momentum Intense was listed on eBay by a perfumery as new and original packaging in an auction. For relatively little money, this Bentley made its way to me.
The information here is rather scarce and sometimes contradictory. If you research a bit more, some YouTubers claim it is a copy of CH Men, or at least strongly reminiscent of it. For the sake of completeness, I must say: sounds good, but I don't know it either.
The first impression was a bit sobering. Anyone expecting a screaming testosterone monster will surely be disappointed. I perceive a woodiness that reminds me a bit of damp sawdust or fresh wood chips. For me, it is definitely light wood, which cannot deny a slight mustiness. However, I only notice this very close to the sprayed area. In the room, the scent floats lightly and carefree. Above it spreads a subtle sweetness that is far from being sticky or intrusive. Personally, I don't perceive many more notes.

Although Momentum feels light to medium-heavy when wearing it, it radiates quite well in the first period and can scent a small office nicely with three sprays. And even though I don't perceive the scent on myself for an incredibly long time, the longevity can't really be bad if T-shirts still smell of it days later.
After repeated wear, I really like Bentley Momentum Intense. I appreciate the subtle "good-friend-feeling" it conveys. Not intrusive, definitely not extravagant, but also without any major edges or corners.

Sweet Synthetic Bomb
I purchased this fragrance as a "blind buy" because it was mostly positively reviewed on YouTube and here as well. It cost me €25 for 100ml.

Now the big BUT! - The price is reasonable, but you get nothing in return. Momentum Intense is supposedly a clone of CH Men (EdT), but it smells only of lavender from the start and has a persistent, penetrating sweetness that lasts until the end, about 8 hours later.

I honestly don't know why this perfume had such a real "hype." In my opinion, it can't be about the scent. This extreme synthetic sweetness is bothersome from start to finish.

The opening is particularly strong, sweet, and synthetic. After about 20 minutes, it calms down. However, that doesn't make the fragrance any better. I couldn't detect tonka bean here either. It's more of an extreme licorice kind of sweetness that unfolds.

After 8 hours, it was finally over. That was my last blind buy for now and also the last fragrance from Bentley.

However, those who enjoy extreme sweetness and synthetic notes will definitely get their money's worth here.

The sun so red...
Maybe some of the older ones remember Westernhagen's album from the early eighties, when he felt the need to create something "new German wave"?!?

No?!

Well, it was pretty inconsequential... and so the circle closes to this Bentley.

However, this moment here is not only inconsequential but rather quite disappointing. Aside from the fact that the ingredient descriptions above hardly match, in my opinion, it’s just a lukewarm, listless mix of Disquared Potion Kadett, cheap deodorant, and a peppery pinch of pepper.

That’s it, it could have been so much better with this brand, with this perfumer - but unfortunately, it is not.

For a gravel pit in Großhessellohe, it might be okay....

Ambery, balsamic, resinous, woody. A serious, sober and very masculine scent for the colder months.

CH Men with -3dB reduced sweetness intensity.
But +3dB in longevity & sillage strength.
Highly recommended!!

One moment, this is clearly Vintage CH Men with much better performance! Plus, it's less sweet and therefore even more pleasant!

CH Men Intense! However, the grass note is completely missing here and the leather is more dominant. I recommend buying this instead of CH Men Vintage :)

For the price (around €25 online) a so-called "no brainer" - smells good, lasts well, and the synthetic notes are not scratchy or annoying! Tip
