NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We need to talk, Gerard!! Hahaha. I have Pure Malt in my collection and I have a little different take than Gerard and I think this is stuff is pretty amazing! Come fall/winter or even cooler spring season, I really enjoy this and I get pretty good performance. Now, would I pay in the upwards of $190+ for a bottle, no but if you can find it under $100, it's a no brainer IMHO. Gotta respect your honesty and telling it like it is, Gerard.

I bought my first bottle of pure malt around 10 years ago. Mostly thanx to the fragrance bros on youtube and loved it. My fragrance collection was just the a men line and i at least smelled different then everybody else. Later when pure malt went away and came back i bought a new bottle and it was less strong but the scent stayed the same. It is rather linear but i love the scent so i don't mind. I rarely had a compliment though because it is rather weak of a scent which is my biggest let down with it. This is hands down my favourite date night scent and wouldn't know anything that bests it in my eyes If my bottle runs out i will try a clone.

I have got 2 bottles of the original 2009 release of pure malt left over. ( I bought 5 when it was released) It honestly lasts for hrs, and I absolutely love it. For me it was worth the hype 💯. As a side note, not only does the boozy smell stay throughout, but it projects out individually from the base.

I do have older bottles of this… And they have turned into liquid gold… I am a big believer in additional maceration taking place and improving certain fragrances… Pure Malt is one of them… The woods in the base..??? I don’t get that at all with my bottles.. But again I do have older bottles.. One of my all time favorites. I would keep using it and seeing if it changes for you… Having said all that….. Can’t say it’s worth the after market prices you see nowadays.

I had a decant years ago and i thought it was just ok. Nothing i had to have right then and there. Had plans of maybe getting a bottle later. Then time passed and the price shot up and i couldn't justify spending that kind of money on something that didn't blow my socks off. I heard about the clone Star Men Nebula from fragrance world and thought I'd give it a shot. For the price of like 20 something bucks i guess it's ok but it just seems overly powdery to me. So much so that i just can't bring myself to wear it. I feel like the hype behind Pure Malt was just that and it just kept growing and growing. Im not sad that i don't have it in my life. Just my .02

I was trying to see under your bottle. If it reads ''Thierry Mugler'', it's the older form. If it reads ''MUGLER'', it's the newer form. Both Pure Havane and Pure Malt have their ''MUGLER'' version, and their ''Thierry Mugler'' version. Kryptomint and Ultimate, fell under the ''MUGLER'' form as well. The new version of Havane loses the cherry note to my nose, and the new form of Pure Malt is diluted and it's longevity has been cut. I also have Pure Malt Creation 2013, which is almost like Pure Malt Intense. I respect people's opinions about fragrances. Some climb the hill with you, some don't. Best to you and yours, Gerard.

Pure Havane is miles better - Pure Malt 2015/14 bottles and older would be before the Thierry Mugler buy-out - also the batch code is on the actual bottle inside the flask - they made the glass sections of the bottles replaceable inside the flask in 2017 I believe so you can pop the top portion of the bottle off to reveal the bottle with batch code on it - you can also replace the bottle inside the flask if you want as well.
