This wallet is NOT genuine.  First at all the smell of the wallet is from a cheap made wallet means the leather is not high quality like all Mont Blanc wallets are made.  I owned several of them and none of them smell like leather from a tennis shoes . Next the packing is fake. The box it came only have the correct pattern in the outside along with the small bag with a fake logo.  If you don't care about the quality and just want the look of a Mont Blanc wallet maybe it will do the job but the question is for how long?  For a few more dollars you will  get the real wallet and will last for years.  Pretty disappointed Amazon sells a product as genuine when it is not. That's very wrong!
