Aventus after all these years, will always be the KING. Owned 200ml CDNIM EDP and montblanc explorer, but aventus no matter what batch will always have the quality of creed, that clones will and never be able to replicate.
I love Creed Aventus, however, it has been copied to death. Also, with the “batch variations” I don’t think it’s worth the hype anymore. Too expensive for the inconsistencies.
@@kylanes7652 Last batch of Pineapple Vintage smells like a year old wet sock rotten in sweat on top of which you poured discount pineapple juice. I wouldn't advise it to anyone, ever.
Personally I’d just say what juice I was actually wearing. I’m gonna assume if someone asks the question they most likely like the smell. If they like it why not tell them the truth. Get the real deal if that’s what you want. Especially if it makes you feel amazing.
The ironic part is that even though Aventus is pretty expensive, even if we collectors over-sprayed it every single day, and wore Aventus exclusively for a year. It would still be way cheaper than what most of us spent on cheapies during our first six months collecting.
that's what I'm talking about too. My nose is pretty good at choosing niche and designer smells, it HAVE TO BE the smell I go through the whole day of work and completely happy with the smell and not make me feel tired or uncomfortable. That's why I only use about 6-7 fragrances for 4 seasons. And that's also I don't spend money for like 5-6 fragrances that smells the same as the best one, in this case is Aventus, if you just use Aventus and repurchase it (because you love it), I'm pretty sure it cheaper and save money for you than buy a few bottles of each brands like sauvage, cdnim, vibrant leather, parfum vintage, bond no9,....
Very good video, do you reccomend to purchase aventus, as a blinded purchase, I mean, I've never smelled IT, if I have the Money do you think thats a good idea to buy it?
No, smell it first or one of the clones. I was gonna blind buy it but at the last minute decided to go out and sample it and was glad I did. The pineapple scent is very polarizing some love it and some hate it. I found that it was not for me personally. I strongly suggest smelling for yourself. Best case you'll fall in love with it, worst case you'll find it's not for you, either way with a $300 price tag you'll KNOW what to do with your money.
I see exaclty what you mean!! When i first smelled aventus i went noise blind to it i couldnt really smell it anymore! But now i have it on i keep getting whiffs of it! Aventus smells so good eveytime it hits my noise i feel happy thats how awesome it smells!!!
Kinan Steib glad you said that I just bought it from neiman Marcus and by the time I got home I couldn’t smell it on my hand anymore. I’m hoping I just went nose blind and didn’t waste money.
I'm not sure if it's worth the hype but now that I own Aventus, I still wear CDNIM, if that helps. I was pleasantly surprised that buying the original did not change my enjoyment of CDNIM (or L'aventure, for that matter). They're different enough to warrant my prefering one over the other at any given time.
trust me its ! for a 30$ it get me more compliments than my creed aventus bottle ! its crazy ik but its true but one thing my dude don't get the 2019 CDNMI batch its shit ! if u search enough u can still buy the 2018 oct/nov batch on the internet , sadly u can't find the 2015/2016/2017 batches anymore
For compliments sauvage is in the top next to aventus something about that smell when someone smells it for the first time it surprises you it was very well done. Chanel allure homme sport extreme is also very good and could very well be a better fragrance than sauvage but the truth is that it will not beat sauvage in compliments. Sauvage is the aqua di gio of this time.
@@funnynotjokin2387 I believe you some people just cant stand fragrances. I work with someone like that, it doesnt matter if is creed,chanel,or dior she hates it and will say something negative. Another interesting thing to me is that dior sauvage and acqua di gio have really low ratings on fragrantica compared to the other top designer fragrances but somehow they are in everyone's most complimented list of all times.
Me too man. I suffer from it bad, it sucks. I try to spray the back of my neck and chest area which helps a bit . Just try to keep it farther away from your nose
The first time I smelt aventus was a really nice smokey pineapple bottle. I liked it but it wasn't really my thing but I still appreciated it. More recently I got 12ml of Zara vibrant Leather to see what the clone was like and I didn't really like it so I smelt the real thing again and it was completely different to the first time I smelt aventus and smelt exactly like vibrant Leather. What's that note that smells similar between them?
When I spray Aventus on me..I feel like I am a part of the nature..part of our EARTH..feels like Men is made of Aventus...Like real man in forest full of life fresh fruits and animals....Absolutely MAGIC composition
Chaos Fragrances , PLEASE address the BO, Foot Odor smell in PVI!! You’ve always been real and honest in your reviews, and there are many buyers that have a fecal smell in their PVI! PLEASE address this!! We are counting on you
Johnny Bump Thank you! I’m so glad I’m not the only one with this issue. Perfumes vintage emailed me back and told me to put it in the fridge. I also read other people online had on this as well. Have you tried doing this? And if so what were the results
Peter Ng I really just want a fragrance that has a big pineapple note, and I heard gold does that. Have you smelled gold before? Since this pineapple vintage intense is messed up, as well as from any other people too, I’m hoping gold will deliver that good juicy pineapple note
I think you’re really are the most comprehensive and persuasive person thus far regarding this topic. Very inspiring and I’d love to get Creed one day when I make the goal of paying for it. I want to experience it and how amazing and near perfect it after nearly 10 years of it’s existence. Thank you very much!
brother thanks for the video, yours is definitely the best i could find about aventus, and i’ve been watching them for days, just bought a bottle , i’m looking for something but i really didn’t know about it
100% right about most people outside fragrance community not knowing the DNA etc. Ive got a decant, 100ml bottle of 18e01 and also a bottle of CDNIM. The decant is defintley fresher.......but the bottle smell exactly the same as CDNIM to me 😂😂😂 love the videos, keep it up mate👌
People have asked me what I wore and I happily said Parfums Vintage Emperor Extrait. I have a 2018 Creed Aventus and I can confidently say that the PV Emperor Extrait smells much better to me and the performance isn't even a contest. Creed Aventus has been one of the biggest regret buys of my recent years.
Can anyone recommend the best place to buy aventus besides saks and Nordstrom they never run sales. Are places like fragrancenet ect real versions of it? Thanks in advance.
I have a 17U01 batch, here's a story for you to put Aventus into context. Was going on a night out so figured, I'll wear Aventus for a change as I hardly wear it (99% full bottle). I did 6 sprays and 30 minutes later, it was undetectable by myself and even my girl couldn't smell it. So before I left, I had to top up with several sprays of CDNIM. It's a pretty fucked up situation when a £25 clone has to compensate for the £265 original.
I have been using Aventus for like 2 years. I have 17N01, 17X01, 18D02 and 19P11: of all, the one that best performs on me is 19P11. However, it is over performed by Emperor EDP and Emperor Extrait still.
Chaos Fragrances To be honest, I am anosmic to Aventus (and CDNIM) there's something about that fragrance DNA. Perhaps to some degree after wearing Aventus for years my girlfriend is also quite noseblind to it. I had a 13Q01 batch before and that thing was a monster, I guess I'm just comparing my current bottle to that. By the way Dallas, you're the first person I've come across who's familiar with my batch, I've found very little online about it. Glad to hear you rate it anyway, makes me feel slightly better haha. Thanks for the video anyway, and for taking the time to reply 👍
Antonio Haven't tried any of the 2019 batches but I hear good things. I just wish creed were more consistent with performance. I can live with batch variations in terms of smokiness etc. Just get the damn performance up when we are shelling out all this money.
I own. 19s41 and 19u11...i love them...however I don't own any or even have I smelled any older batches either for basis of comparison...as many people have stated...after awhile I can't smell it..just whiffs every now and again..has olfactive fatigue reared its ugly head or is it just alot weaker now...i really wish I knew myself...for all I know it could be pushing out like a champ...or could it be a waste of money...once again I really wish I knew myself...as far as the first initial blast it's amazing...is it worth the price once again..i don't know..part of me wants to climb to the top of a mountain and scream (aventus is incredible!) and another part of me wants to hide in a corner and say to myself quietly (wtf did I just spend $600 on?).
In my opinion..18B01. Worth every penny. It's my only go to aventus. That's why I bought 5 bottles at once at Bergdorf's on 5th Ave at the time. I know it was going be a grail batch. No regrets baby!..😎🤟⚡🔥. The ladies absolutely love this one. comps beyond expectations each time I wore it..got lots of dates. A little bit goes a long way. 2 spray that's it behind the ears.😉.
Two years ago Aventus was exclusive and unique, the hype was huge and it was a rare event if you caught a waft of it in a social setting. Two years on and I've become bored of it, all the clones have spoiled my excitement for it, it's not unique any more...I still respect it but I've moved on to other things, which is the right thing to do considering theres over 50'000 fragrances out there.
My first Aventus bottle I got in 2019 with batch 17Y01, to me it's so rich like smoky pineapple people talking about. My 2nd bottle is 19Y01N, ok people letter ''N'' is reformulated batch, I really get it, it smell brighter, fruitier, the juice very clear not slightly yellow, it's just smell like 70% of my 17 batch...HOWEVER, I let the bottle sit in it's box (still decant 10ml to bring with me everywhere), now the juice is yellower, and my nose feels like it smell like 90% of my 17 batch. And I'm very happy with it. My 3rd bottle is about 50ml I bought from a store, it's is 50ml remain from 1 liter flacon Aventus, with batch 19P11, this batch to me smell like Hacivat + Aventus, a bit too green and oak moss to me, I'm still like it and will use it but prefer smoky pineapple like the first time I smell it.
@@hieubeo1202 thank for your reply and to be honest my 19Y01N 100m straight out the box doesn’t look clear it’s got color to it I used it the first day I got it and it’s been In the box since. The smell was very nice and was actually strong it last all day I took a shower and I still smelled it on my skin (neck area) so much so I didn’t wear any thing the next day I also have montblanc explorer and it’s a very very close smell but it’s missing that pop and it doesn’t project as long or as strong as adventus.. I’m going to leave my 19Y01N in the box for a while and see what color it turns
@@sors1599 if you wanna save your money and use Montblanc Explorer or CDNIM or Zara Vibrant Leather instead of Aventus, my advice is just..don't, just don't use those clones man. I used all of them, all that clones I just use 10ml decant and use it side by side with my Aventus for a few weeks. And you know what? Those clones always missing something, they always smell like 60% of Aventus (even with new batches or vintage or whatever), and ''that missing notes'' is very important, for me and for people complimented me because of Aventus. So just use the original, and 19Y01N is amazing man.
I have a few testers with no cap, I say go for it if you're saving money. for aventus stay within the $220 range for 100ml. every other creed from their normal line stay under $190 for 100ml
i only own a sample of Aventus that i got when i bought Green Irish Tweed at Bloomingdales..so i actually like these kinda vids cause one day, i plan to purchase an Aventus bottle.
Anybody knows if Creed now wraps their boxes in cellophane for their 2019 batches? I saw it in Ken’s Apothacary the other day. According to the sales assistant, Creed now does that to most of their 2019 batches. Ken’s is the only store that sells “authentic” Creed fragrances in Malaysia btw. After I saw that, kinda doubting it now.
Batch is everything 17x01 is my favorite fragrance of all time but my other batches it's not even in my top 5 list of fragrances. If you don't wanna bother with batches then I say just go parfums vintage pineapple extreme I would pick that over most batches of aventus for scent
Pineapple Vintage Intense was the worst fragrance I've ever worn. It smelled like pineapple bug spray and almost made me nauseous. I put it on when I got out of the shower and had to get back in and scrub the spots I sprayed about 15-20 times with Dr. Bronners citrus soap to get rid of the smell. My wife agreed that it was terrible and is nothing like Aventus. Just my experience.
Would like to see your thought about Creed GIT and why is it worn by many celebrities? What does it have that makes it supersede Aventus in terms of that category?
with all due respect, I disagree with you. Wearing fragrance clones is not the same thing as wearing a fake Rolex. Wearing a cheap watch that looks/performs great is almost like wearing a clone. There still is history/culture, quality, and performance in clone houses.
My question won't be do you think that Aventus is worth paying retail for? I purchased 50ml retail at $325, but performance is not that great on my skin. I want to buy on grey market, but don't want to get scammed and get Evintus instead and waste my money, Clones are good, but nothing like the real thing.i love Aventus but think that it is very overpriced. FYI: Batch 19P21
uradamnfool2 man you need to join a group on Facebook . I own 5 bottles and won some in a group . I paid $330 for a sought after 17 batch 120 ml’s . Brand new 19 batches from 200- 250 100 ml . Aventus addicts is one .
But is it still worth it with the performance supposedly lacking greatly? I've seen talk of the majority of batches made in the past several years only getting an hour of Projection and maybe 4 hours of longevity and then you're having to respray. If that's the case then that seems like a lot of wasted money 💸
I have Aventus 16H11 and 17N01. Both are good, one fruity and other is smoky. I love this juice. It is my all time no 1. But somehow my CDNIM 2017 gives me more compliments and more noticed by people, because it is synthetic and lean. If you can really afford it or youre a perfume collector or frag head then go for it without going into batch debate. I would say try a decant first. If not there are tons of alternative out there, buy any of them.
I just received 100ml aventus from costco ($249), I bought it because it was deal, but then I compared it to my $25 club de nuit intense. holy crap, the clone has better performance( i can still smell it little after taking shower, the aventus is almost gone). I am returning this to costco, the $25 dollar can do the job. I'd rather go buy layton or something.
Hey Dallas. Great Vid. I like the watch comparison, I love my watches and I’m not a big fan of clone watches. As for frags? I do wear PV Emperor extrait a lot. I will buy Emperor EDP as I like it a little better for performance. Unbelievable on my skin. I might go FragranceNet or something for the Aventus. Hopefully I get a good performing batch.. big pineapple; vanilla; smoke;? I don’t really care; just want a good performing bottle.. thanks again..
I completely agree with you and I wear PV Emperor Extrait over my bottle of 2018 Aventus. Although I understand the comparison between watches I don't fully agree. Being a watch collector myself you can easily tell the difference between a fake Rolex and a real one. It is also more obvious because it is something you can see with your eyes and feel if you were to ask the person to take a closer look at the watch. A scent is different though because its something we smell and don't see. The people who are fragrance experts will know Aventus right away when they smell it. Others however wouldn't be able to tell the difference unless they smell one after the other. Also as Dallas stated, no one outside the community even knows about Creed so why would they even know what you wear is a clone if they aren't familiar with the original scent.
Got my sample of silver mountain water Smells like wet rag and grass. Got a milky vibe kinda So far not impressed but will wear it tomorrow and see how it goes.
I own a bottle of cdnim(2018). I did not blow me away in the first sniff but I thought that others might like it. I even received hate comments about the scent (my mom even said it smells like sweat! (I didn't feel it though)) But some boys tent to like it but not mind blowing reaction. Now I am really confused that is it just about the clones or should I get a real aventus!?? (The hate comments I mentioned earlier was severe)
I noticed around my area people really dont where neich nor know what neiche frags are so most of the popular frags I can get away with since it's not played out so I am lucky .
I just sold my last three bottles. I’m over the hype! Rarely gets compliments, newer batches don’t perform.. I’ll stick with a clone for the days I want it. The real MVP’s of the house are SMW, GIT and OV
For me I like real aventus because the clones dont smell anything like it. I own CDIM on the cheaper side of the clo es and I also own PV Emperor. I can smell the difference a mile off that's why I wear aventus.
@@seekthetruths22 I'm a fan of CDIM but let's be honest the first half hour it smells like bathroom cleaner. Aventus is is way more complex the pineapple smells great too. Maybe you cant smell the difference in quality but I deffo can. I find performance of then both roughly the same.
@@ND-ku4yo 😂😂😂I'm the fan boy but you've bought every knock off going???. When you've saved up your Penny's for the OG feel free to come back and thank ya boy 😉😂
Just got me a 1.7 oz of this today waiting for it to come in been avoiding it for long time so I figured time to buy a small bottle and give it a shot of fragerance net .
Great overall video . I really like it and I now own 5 bottles and decants and also enjoy Cologne as well . DNA just works and in the end no matter what you get just enjoy it wether it’s cheap or expensive . If you like the scent just rock it and the same as the clones !!
Nice topic Dallas and I dig these videos, originality does matter to me more so than a lot of ppl tho lol. Tried 2 Aventus clones both free 1 didnt like (Babylon Frags) 1 way better (DUA). Would like to sample Aventus but BR540 even more so I think. I also dont wanna get ripped off lol. Totally agree with u tho about the "real world" most people have no clue what Aventus is and if u tell them how much it is they bout shit themselves lol. Keep up the good work kid.
@@ChaosFragrances Thanks man ya I def want to. Just so u know the comment about originality was about these videos u been doin in this style. I was sayin they r original I dig it. Prolly wasnt clear enough abt that lol my bad
Nothing can beat the real beauty and intoxication of older batches of Aventus, except Pineapple Vintage flankers (club de nuit is crap compared to PV). I will always recommend going for a decant of old batches of Aventus.... current batches of Aventus are not worth it. You don't know what you're going to get. Better to go for a decant of the old batches of Aventus or to go for a reliable popular clone like Pineapple Vintage PVI or Emperor flankers, which many people say are way better than modern batches of Aventus.
CDNIM is almost dead on I’ve had both on and almost dead one and the performance CDNIM is absolutely beast and it’s 30$ so unless you’re super rich and 300$ is nothing I’d recommend CDNIM
maybe people buy clones because they ACTUALLY SMELL BETTER THROUGHOUT the wearing. sure u can always save for the STATUS SYMBOL, however, if its not the BEST at the time, get MORE FOR YOUR MONEY with CERTAIN clones. NO HATE... just sharing a thought..
That boxer dropper talk is such BS!!...women love the way aventus smells...its just that %95 of normal women aren't going to compliment you never mind start drooling and squirming around like a cat in heat...men will compliment men because 1..they like the way the fragrance. Your wearing smells...2 they want to know what your wearing so they can get it and increase their chances of getting women.
Men overhype it for ONE reason! And that’s because the women love it! My wife and her family love this fragrance when I wear it. She can’t stop smelling it. Lol!!
i love aventus in Terms of the smell, but the Performance of my 2018 Batch is awful.. im not trolling, but all my John varvatus fragrences, which are known for bad Performance, which is totally wrong nowadays, are Performing WAY BETTER then my aventus... i think you Need a new Batch from 18 or 19 to finally argue if aventus is still worth the hype... 99% of the customers just buy them retail so they Always have the newest Batches..
Very interesting point.... “The real world “ I feel the same as you when I got my first AVENTUS , fragrances enthusiasts will love AVENTUS forever! REAL WORLD will buy OFFICE FOR MEN hands down LOL 😂. Nice video.
With the amount of time Aventus has been out, it’s a good time for a talk of this sort. Price increases, Batch variation, and decent clones that replicate specific batches all come into play.
I'm 100% with you on the majority of people don't know about creed aventus, we need to stop being paranoid about things like this but then again that's what makes us so passionate about this hobyy :)
Ppl dont know if aventus or not then why does it matter if you tell ppl thats club de nuit lol. Also Club de nuit is a clone not a fake. Fake would be the Aventus from China
Couldn't agree more on the feeling of accomplishment when buying your first bottle. Aventus was the holy grail to achieve and now I'm part of the chaos 😁. Unfortunately I'm one of those frag heads who always needs a back up bottle of my favourites so it's only a matter of time before I buy a second bottle, despite barely using my first bottle as of yet 😂
i don’t have it in my modest size collection. but if i always want to spray it on in the store when i visit its a sign it’s high on my list. a 50ml bottle probably rather than stretching to the 100ml
For me it was the first and last time I bought a bottle of Aventus. It wss good but once I came across CDNI, there was no point in buying Aventus anymore.
In my opinion in terms of Scent and performance there are better options than modern Aventus batches, for example Emperor Extrait tends to smell and definitely perform better than Aventus today. But Aventus is still Aventus and to some it may be worth the status.
You haven't talked about 2018/2019 batches of aventus! I think you should do a video on the latest batch of all most popular creed fragrances(Aventus,GIT,MI,VW,SMW and OS)
If i was gonna save up for a more expensive niche fragrance & it was gonna be the only niche fragrance i own id go for something a bit more elegant like a tobacco or oud type of thing that would be for special situations .
I have been thinking about this since the latest PV in which i thought Emporer Napoleon was a step backwards. I'm done with the Aventus clones there's too many and its killing everything the original Aventus was. Because the clones are either the fruity version or the woody version never the total Aventus experience. Fruity top woody middle and smokey drydown. That being said Creed themselves have not helped by watering down their Jewl in the Crown. I now have 170ml of Aventus and 300ml worth of clones. There are some expections but they are very few.
The majority of people have never even heard of aventus let alone even creed!!! So in regular everyday life you may not run into too many folks up on it
I have bought my last bottle of Aventus! I bought a 2020 bottle earlier this year and it is my third bottle of aventus and also my last! My 2018 bottle is awesome and there is still a few mills left in it, it is powerful and potent and smells expensive! My 2020 bottle is such a disappointment, smells like a cheap clone and the performance is awful! My 2018 batch would last all day and I could smell it in my clothes the next day and even the day after! It pains me to say do not buy it guys it’s awful! I have no idea what creed have done but it is def not worth the money! My new fav is amouage reflection
Aventus after all these years, will always be the KING. Owned 200ml CDNIM EDP and montblanc explorer, but aventus no matter what batch will always have the quality of creed, that clones will and never be able to replicate.
I agree 👍🏼
Totally agreed. Original will always be the original.
I love Creed Aventus, however, it has been copied to death. Also, with the “batch variations” I don’t think it’s worth the hype anymore. Too expensive for the inconsistencies.
Great points 👍🏼
You need to try Parfums Vintage Fragrances. They make the best copy of Aventus.
@@kylanes7652 Last batch of Pineapple Vintage smells like a year old wet sock rotten in sweat on top of which you poured discount pineapple juice. I wouldn't advise it to anyone, ever.
@@SafirLamkhantar lol maybe you smell yourself not the PV. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Miller Heileife 4 different sources, 5 with me. Of course it happened.
Personally I’d just say what juice I was actually wearing. I’m gonna assume if someone asks the question they most likely like the smell. If they like it why not tell them the truth. Get the real deal if that’s what you want. Especially if it makes you feel amazing.
Buying the real adventus does give you a sense of satisfaction that clones don't. Thanks for the vid.
The ironic part is that even though Aventus is pretty expensive, even if we collectors over-sprayed it every single day, and wore Aventus exclusively for a year.
It would still be way cheaper than what most of us spent on cheapies during our first six months collecting.
Salvador Villagomez thats such a good point
Great point, in line with what point I was trying to make in my cheap fragrances video 🙏🏻
That actually sounds true.
that's what I'm talking about too. My nose is pretty good at choosing niche and designer smells, it HAVE TO BE the smell I go through the whole day of work and completely happy with the smell and not make me feel tired or uncomfortable. That's why I only use about 6-7 fragrances for 4 seasons. And that's also I don't spend money for like 5-6 fragrances that smells the same as the best one, in this case is Aventus, if you just use Aventus and repurchase it (because you love it), I'm pretty sure it cheaper and save money for you than buy a few bottles of each brands like sauvage, cdnim, vibrant leather, parfum vintage, bond no9,....
Regardless of what ppl might say about Aventus, I love this Cologne. And will keep wearing it!
I’m in love with your videos! There are so much useful information in every single one..
Very good video, do you reccomend to purchase aventus, as a blinded purchase, I mean, I've never smelled IT, if I have the Money do you think thats a good idea to buy it?
No, smell it first or one of the clones. I was gonna blind buy it but at the last minute decided to go out and sample it and was glad I did. The pineapple scent is very polarizing some love it and some hate it. I found that it was not for me personally. I strongly suggest smelling for yourself. Best case you'll fall in love with it, worst case you'll find it's not for you, either way with a $300 price tag you'll KNOW what to do with your money.

Is CDNMI still worth the hype? Got my bottle coming in tomorrow.
I'm not sure if it's worth the hype but now that I own Aventus, I still wear CDNIM, if that helps. I was pleasantly surprised that buying the original did not change my enjoyment of CDNIM (or L'aventure, for that matter). They're different enough to warrant my prefering one over the other at any given time.
trust me its ! for a 30$ it get me more compliments than my creed aventus bottle ! its crazy ik but its true but one thing my dude don't get the 2019 CDNMI batch its shit ! if u search enough u can still buy the 2018 oct/nov batch on the internet , sadly u can't find the 2015/2016/2017 batches anymore
Yesss it is I have a 2018 batch of club de nuit intense man
2019 CDNMI made in france is still a beast, i believe the UAE version of 2019 is the problem . I have it and it's 10h+ on me.
Dior Sauvage EDT vs Dior Sauvage EDP vs Chanel Allure Home Sport Eau Extreme? (Best for compliments)
For compliments sauvage is in the top next to aventus something about that smell when someone smells it for the first time it surprises you it was very well done. Chanel allure homme sport extreme is also very good and could very well be a better fragrance than sauvage but the truth is that it will not beat sauvage in compliments. Sauvage is the aqua di gio of this time.
Sauvage EDT 💯
@@funnynotjokin2387 I believe you some people just cant stand fragrances. I work with someone like that, it doesnt matter if is creed,chanel,or dior she hates it and will say something negative. Another interesting thing to me is that dior sauvage and acqua di gio have really low ratings on fragrantica compared to the other top designer fragrances but somehow they are in everyone's most complimented list of all times.
2019, Sauvage EDP 🔥🔥
I have just received creed adventus from neiman marcus and it doesn't come in a cellophane wrapper.
I bought mine retail from a creed dealer and it wasn’t in a cellophane wrapper either and was told that creed doesn’t wrap em. Mines a 2019 fragrance.
Aventus is great, but I get really bad olfactory fatigue from it. I can't smell it after the first hour or so, but those around me can.
Me too man. I suffer from it bad, it sucks. I try to spray the back of my neck and chest area which helps a bit . Just try to keep it farther away from your nose
Any suggestions where to buy it at?
What is the difference between the 2 links for aventus links cologne and edp. Is esp stronger? Or cologne? Internet search was confusing
The first time I smelt aventus was a really nice smokey pineapple bottle. I liked it but it wasn't really my thing but I still appreciated it. More recently I got 12ml of Zara vibrant Leather to see what the clone was like and I didn't really like it so I smelt the real thing again and it was completely different to the first time I smelt aventus and smelt exactly like vibrant Leather. What's that note that smells similar between them?
What is the difference between Creed Aventus & Creed Aventus cologne?
When I spray Aventus on me..I feel like I am a part of the nature..part of our EARTH..feels like Men is made of Aventus...Like real man in forest full of life fresh fruits and animals....Absolutely MAGIC composition
Chaos Fragrances , PLEASE address the BO, Foot Odor smell in PVI!! You’ve always been real and honest in your reviews, and there are many buyers that have a fecal smell in their PVI! PLEASE address this!! We are counting on you
I got the same thing with PVI.
Agree, bit of that sweat vibe with PVI
Johnny Bump Thank you! I’m so glad I’m not the only one with this issue. Perfumes vintage emailed me back and told me to put it in the fridge. I also read other people online had on this as well. Have you tried doing this? And if so what were the results
Peter Ng I really just want a fragrance that has a big pineapple note, and I heard gold does that. Have you smelled gold before? Since this pineapple vintage intense is messed up, as well as from any other people too, I’m hoping gold will deliver that good juicy pineapple note
I think you’re really are the most comprehensive and persuasive person thus far regarding this topic. Very inspiring and I’d love to get Creed one day when I make the goal of paying for it. I want to experience it and how amazing and near perfect it after nearly 10 years of it’s existence. Thank you very much!
brother thanks for the video, yours is definitely the best i could find about aventus, and i’ve been watching them for days, just bought a bottle , i’m looking for something but i really didn’t know about it
100% right about most people outside fragrance community not knowing the DNA etc. Ive got a decant, 100ml bottle of 18e01 and also a bottle of CDNIM. The decant is defintley fresher.......but the bottle smell exactly the same as CDNIM to me 😂😂😂 love the videos, keep it up mate👌
People have asked me what I wore and I happily said Parfums Vintage Emperor Extrait. I have a 2018 Creed Aventus and I can confidently say that the PV Emperor Extrait smells much better to me and the performance isn't even a contest. Creed Aventus has been one of the biggest regret buys of my recent years.
Can anyone recommend the best place to buy aventus besides saks and Nordstrom they never run sales. Are places like fragrancenet ect real versions of it? Thanks in advance.

I have a 17U01 batch, here's a story for you to put Aventus into context. Was going on a night out so figured, I'll wear Aventus for a change as I hardly wear it (99% full bottle). I did 6 sprays and 30 minutes later, it was undetectable by myself and even my girl couldn't smell it. So before I left, I had to top up with several sprays of CDNIM. It's a pretty fucked up situation when a £25 clone has to compensate for the £265 original.
All the time with Aventus. It lasts but it doens't project on me
I’d say more likely than not you both were anosmic to it. Happens to myself often too. 17U01 is a solid batch of Aventus
I have been using Aventus for like 2 years. I have 17N01, 17X01, 18D02 and 19P11: of all, the one that best performs on me is 19P11. However, it is over performed by Emperor EDP and Emperor Extrait still.
Chaos Fragrances To be honest, I am anosmic to Aventus (and CDNIM) there's something about that fragrance DNA. Perhaps to some degree after wearing Aventus for years my girlfriend is also quite noseblind to it. I had a 13Q01 batch before and that thing was a monster, I guess I'm just comparing my current bottle to that. By the way Dallas, you're the first person I've come across who's familiar with my batch, I've found very little online about it. Glad to hear you rate it anyway, makes me feel slightly better haha. Thanks for the video anyway, and for taking the time to reply 👍
Antonio Haven't tried any of the 2019 batches but I hear good things. I just wish creed were more consistent with performance. I can live with batch variations in terms of smokiness etc. Just get the damn performance up when we are shelling out all this money.
I have 19P11, and it doesn't blow me away for the price point, probably won't repurchase.
Sell it to me? I’ve been looking for 19P11!
I own. 19s41 and 19u11...i love them...however I don't own any or even have I smelled any older batches either for basis of comparison...as many people have stated...after awhile I can't smell it..just whiffs every now and again..has olfactive fatigue reared its ugly head or is it just alot weaker now...i really wish I knew myself...for all I know it could be pushing out like a champ...or could it be a waste of money...once again I really wish I knew myself...as far as the first initial blast it's amazing...is it worth the price once again..i don't know..part of me wants to climb to the top of a mountain and scream (aventus is incredible!) and another part of me wants to hide in a corner and say to myself quietly (wtf did I just spend $600 on?).
Hi man what do you think is the best batch for the last 4 years?
In my opinion..18B01. Worth every penny. It's my only go to aventus. That's why I bought 5 bottles at once at Bergdorf's on 5th Ave at the time. I know it was going be a grail batch. No regrets baby!..😎🤟⚡🔥. The ladies absolutely love this one. comps beyond expectations each time I wore it..got lots of dates. A little bit goes a long way. 2 spray that's it behind the ears.😉.
Two years ago Aventus was exclusive and unique, the hype was huge and it was a rare event if you caught a waft of it in a social setting. Two years on and I've become bored of it, all the clones have spoiled my excitement for it, it's not unique any more...I still respect it but I've moved on to other things, which is the right thing to do considering theres over 50'000 fragrances out there.
Steve Bingham true. However vintage batches are still unique and worthy of the hype.
Its still exclusive
I still never smelt someone with Aventus, even not it’s dna. I don’t think it’s That known.
Any thoughts on 19Y01n?? This happens to be the batch that’s in my store cop or not?
My first Aventus bottle I got in 2019 with batch 17Y01, to me it's so rich like smoky pineapple people talking about. My 2nd bottle is 19Y01N, ok people letter ''N'' is reformulated batch, I really get it, it smell brighter, fruitier, the juice very clear not slightly yellow, it's just smell like 70% of my 17 batch...HOWEVER, I let the bottle sit in it's box (still decant 10ml to bring with me everywhere), now the juice is yellower, and my nose feels like it smell like 90% of my 17 batch. And I'm very happy with it. My 3rd bottle is about 50ml I bought from a store, it's is 50ml remain from 1 liter flacon Aventus, with batch 19P11, this batch to me smell like Hacivat + Aventus, a bit too green and oak moss to me, I'm still like it and will use it but prefer smoky pineapple like the first time I smell it.
@@hieubeo1202 thank for your reply and to be honest my 19Y01N 100m straight out the box doesn’t look clear it’s got color to it I used it the first day I got it and it’s been In the box since. The smell was very nice and was actually strong it last all day I took a shower and I still smelled it on my skin (neck area) so much so I didn’t wear any thing the next day I also have montblanc explorer and it’s a very very close smell but it’s missing that pop and it doesn’t project as long or as strong as adventus.. I’m going to leave my 19Y01N in the box for a while and see what color it turns
@@sors1599 if you wanna save your money and use Montblanc Explorer or CDNIM or Zara Vibrant Leather instead of Aventus, my advice is just..don't, just don't use those clones man. I used all of them, all that clones I just use 10ml decant and use it side by side with my Aventus for a few weeks. And you know what? Those clones always missing something, they always smell like 60% of Aventus (even with new batches or vintage or whatever), and ''that missing notes'' is very important, for me and for people complimented me because of Aventus. So just use the original, and 19Y01N is amazing man.
@@hieubeo1202 I have 100m creed adventus and 100m explorer I’ll only use creed for a special day
@@sors1599 me too.
Chaos is it worth it to buy a tester with no cap of aventus and other creeds and what is a good price range to stay when buying 3.4 oz creed testers
I have a few testers with no cap, I say go for it if you're saving money. for aventus stay within the $220 range for 100ml. every other creed from their normal line stay under $190 for 100ml
@@ChaosFragrances Great thanks bro. I appreciate your content and your honesty. That's what makes you great at what you do. ✌
Hey bro, that beard with your hairdo (that fade) looks so good on you. Keep it up!
i only own a sample of Aventus that i got when i bought Green Irish Tweed at Bloomingdales..so i actually like these kinda vids cause one day, i plan to purchase an Aventus bottle.
hopelessly_g you won’t be disappointed. How does green Irish tweed smell? I plan on sampling it.
daniel zychniewicz it smells great bro. it’s a clean scent. lasts all day long. you’ll honestly still smell it on your clothes the next day.
hopelessly_g same with Aventus. I love creed. I want to sample all Viking and ERolfa too. Cheers mate.
hey I was wondering what you do for a living to be able to buy all these fragrances
Club de nuit intense man best aventus clone👍
so perfume ventage empior extract is that better then 2019 aventis
Anybody knows if Creed now wraps their boxes in cellophane for their 2019 batches? I saw it in Ken’s Apothacary the other day. According to the sales assistant, Creed now does that to most of their 2019 batches. Ken’s is the only store that sells “authentic” Creed fragrances in Malaysia btw. After I saw that, kinda doubting it now.
They started wrapping with 19S31 and beyond. Before that they are not.
This is the most informative and honest video I have seen for Aventus..
hey bros, what do you think of batch 19P21 is it any good?
I just got a bottle of that batch waiting for it to get here so I'd definitely like to know how people feel about this batch
Batch is everything 17x01 is my favorite fragrance of all time but my other batches it's not even in my top 5 list of fragrances. If you don't wanna bother with batches then I say just go parfums vintage pineapple extreme I would pick that over most batches of aventus for scent
Pineapple Vintage Intense was the worst fragrance I've ever worn. It smelled like pineapple bug spray and almost made me nauseous. I put it on when I got out of the shower and had to get back in and scrub the spots I sprayed about 15-20 times with Dr. Bronners citrus soap to get rid of the smell. My wife agreed that it was terrible and is nothing like Aventus. Just my experience.
Would like to see your thought about Creed GIT and why is it worn by many celebrities? What does it have that makes it supersede Aventus in terms of that category?
with all due respect, I disagree with you. Wearing fragrance clones is not the same thing as wearing a fake Rolex. Wearing a cheap watch that looks/performs great is almost like wearing a clone. There still is history/culture, quality, and performance in clone houses.
My question won't be do you think that Aventus is worth paying retail for? I purchased 50ml retail at $325, but performance is not that great on my skin. I want to buy on grey market, but don't want to get scammed and get Evintus instead and waste my money, Clones are good, but nothing like the real thing.i love Aventus but think that it is very overpriced. FYI: Batch 19P21
uradamnfool2 man you need to join a group on Facebook . I own 5 bottles and won some in a group . I paid $330 for a sought after 17 batch 120 ml’s . Brand new 19 batches from 200- 250 100 ml . Aventus addicts is one .
@@cookiepuss8182 Thanks I appreciate that. Didn't know about the FB groups. Will check it out. $330 for 2017 120 ml? DAYUM!!! I been missin out!
uradamnfool2 yes and so many legit and great sellers on there . Definitely do it and good luck !!
But is it still worth it with the performance supposedly lacking greatly? I've seen talk of the majority of batches made in the past several years only getting an hour of Projection and maybe 4 hours of longevity and then you're having to respray. If that's the case then that seems like a lot of wasted money 💸
Great video, man! Enjoy hearing you just discuss a fragrance, not cheer not bash, just discuss. I appreciate the discussion starting point.
Just got me the 19s11 batch and it’s my first Aventus , please can somebody tell me more about it
I got the same batch.. lol
I have 19s11 and doesn’t last on my skin more than 2 hours. 😔😔 Do you have the same sensation?
it depend some time I go noise blind
I also have 16h11 and me personally I love it it has everything especially the 🍍🍍 🍍 ❤️❤️❤️
Luis Rodriguez i don’t know what batch are you talking about cause the new one smell like really strong lemon like CDNI
carlosgj1308 in my Aventus it says 16h11 and I get that blast of pineapple 🍍 and I also have CDNI but it’s more of a Smokey batch to my nose 👃
Luis Rodriguez i guess you have the best one which is the pineapple the new one smell smoky like CDNI Which I don’t like it
Yes..i also have 16H11. I love this jucie. Very good
I have Aventus 16H11 and 17N01. Both are good, one fruity and other is smoky. I love this juice. It is my all time no 1. But somehow my CDNIM 2017 gives me more compliments and more noticed by people, because it is synthetic and lean.
If you can really afford it or youre a perfume collector or frag head then go for it without going into batch debate. I would say try a decant first. If not there are tons of alternative out there, buy any of them.
I enjoy this format. I love the bit left in where you put up 3 fingers up and mean 2. Makes it more informal, like you are just chatting.
Liked before i began watching, Thanks for your take on this man I appreciate it !
Absolutely worthy, i have 18E01,19N01 and 19P11 and they all work great on my skin 😁😁
Sell me 19P11 please lol. If you’re interested in selling I’ll buy.
19P11 was the best
I just received 100ml aventus from costco ($249), I bought it because it was deal, but then I compared it to my $25 club de nuit intense. holy crap, the clone has better performance( i can still smell it little after taking shower, the aventus is almost gone). I am returning this to costco, the $25 dollar can do the job. I'd rather go buy layton or something.
straden79 your aventus must be a fake one
Hey Dallas.
Great Vid. I like the watch comparison, I love my watches and I’m not a big fan of clone watches. As for frags? I do wear PV Emperor extrait a lot. I will buy Emperor EDP as I like it a little better for performance. Unbelievable on my skin. I might go FragranceNet or something for the Aventus. Hopefully I get a good performing batch.. big pineapple; vanilla; smoke;? I don’t really care; just want a good performing bottle.. thanks again..
I completely agree with you and I wear PV Emperor Extrait over my bottle of 2018 Aventus. Although I understand the comparison between watches I don't fully agree. Being a watch collector myself you can easily tell the difference between a fake Rolex and a real one. It is also more obvious because it is something you can see with your eyes and feel if you were to ask the person to take a closer look at the watch. A scent is different though because its something we smell and don't see. The people who are fragrance experts will know Aventus right away when they smell it. Others however wouldn't be able to tell the difference unless they smell one after the other. Also as Dallas stated, no one outside the community even knows about Creed so why would they even know what you wear is a clone if they aren't familiar with the original scent.
Got my sample of silver mountain water
Smells like wet rag and grass.
Got a milky vibe kinda
So far not impressed but will wear it tomorrow and see how it goes.
Stealthy silver mountain is my fav :( yea i would say spray it on your skin and let it settle maybe it will change :)
Elequite didn’t work out this hot girl that usually sits next to me in class moved away from me. I knew I smelled like shit lol.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm gonna try it have a blessed night
Thanks!
I own a bottle of cdnim(2018). I did not blow me away in the first sniff but I thought that others might like it. I even received hate comments about the scent (my mom even said it smells like sweat! (I didn't feel it though))
But some boys tent to like it but not mind blowing reaction.
Now I am really confused that is it just about the clones or should I get a real aventus!??
(The hate comments I mentioned earlier was severe)
You are wrong about the outside world not knowing about Aventus. In the UK it’s becoming very mainstream
Bought a bottle last week. Love it, clones dont come close in my opinion. Amazing smell.
I noticed around my area people really dont where neich nor know what neiche frags are so most of the popular frags I can get away with since it's not played out so I am lucky .
Keep these videos coming bro, it’s unique content that no one else is doing and it’s great insight!
Appreciate that a lot ! Will keep them coming 🙏🏻
I just sold my last three bottles. I’m over the hype! Rarely gets compliments, newer batches don’t perform.. I’ll stick with a clone for the days I want it. The real MVP’s of the house are SMW, GIT and OV
For me I like real aventus because the clones dont smell anything like it. I own CDIM on the cheaper side of the clo es and I also own PV Emperor. I can smell the difference a mile off that's why I wear aventus.
@@seekthetruths22 I'm a fan of CDIM but let's be honest the first half hour it smells like bathroom cleaner. Aventus is is way more complex the pineapple smells great too. Maybe you cant smell the difference in quality but I deffo can. I find performance of then both roughly the same.
@@ND-ku4yo 😂😂😂I'm the fan boy but you've bought every knock off going???. When you've saved up your Penny's for the OG feel free to come back and thank ya boy 😉😂
Just got me a 1.7 oz of this today waiting for it to come in been avoiding it for long time so I figured time to buy a small bottle and give it a shot of fragerance net .
Great overall video . I really like it and I now own 5 bottles and decants and also enjoy Cologne as well . DNA just works and in the end no matter what you get just enjoy it wether it’s cheap or expensive . If you like the scent just rock it and the same as the clones !!
Agreed 100%!
Nice topic Dallas and I dig these videos, originality does matter to me more so than a lot of ppl tho lol. Tried 2 Aventus clones both free 1 didnt like (Babylon Frags) 1 way better (DUA). Would like to sample Aventus but BR540 even more so I think. I also dont wanna get ripped off lol. Totally agree with u tho about the "real world" most people have no clue what Aventus is and if u tell them how much it is they bout shit themselves lol. Keep up the good work kid.
Def checkout Br540! Very original, I think you’d dig it. Thanks for watching!
@@ChaosFragrances Thanks man ya I def want to. Just so u know the comment about originality was about these videos u been doin in this style. I was sayin they r original I dig it. Prolly wasnt clear enough abt that lol my bad
Ofcourse, it's a hype. Love Creed and love aventus.
Nothing can beat the real beauty and intoxication of older batches of Aventus, except Pineapple Vintage flankers (club de nuit is crap compared to PV). I will always recommend going for a decant of old batches of Aventus.... current batches of Aventus are not worth it. You don't know what you're going to get. Better to go for a decant of the old batches of Aventus or to go for a reliable popular clone like Pineapple Vintage PVI or Emperor flankers, which many people say are way better than modern batches of Aventus.
Which batch has the most pineapple in it
CDNIM is almost dead on I’ve had both on and almost dead one and the performance CDNIM is absolutely beast and it’s 30$ so unless you’re super rich and 300$ is nothing I’d recommend CDNIM
Richard cdnim > aventus. There I said it.
Lol you broke boys are hilarious and trying to justify your purchases. Cdnim is 💩 period.
daniel zychniewicz yea alright have fun wasting 400 for something that doesn’t even last as long as CDNIM
Richard lol you doofus I have a vintage flask that lasts 14 hours. Obviously they’ve watered it down now but cdnim is still crap 💩
daniel zychniewicz keep tryna justify your wasted money it’s fine
Still the best didn’t like Parfums vintage emperor or king intense got both 2016s n a 2017 n 18 have no performance issues. Love it 😍
maybe people buy clones because they ACTUALLY SMELL BETTER THROUGHOUT the wearing. sure u can always save for the STATUS SYMBOL, however, if its not the BEST at the time, get MORE FOR YOUR MONEY with CERTAIN clones. NO HATE... just sharing a thought..
I've actually been thinking of getting into this, but from what I see it seems to appeal to men more than women. What do you guys think?
Definitely. Men like Aventus, not women.
I’m woman and yes we love it !!!
That boxer dropper talk is such BS!!...women love the way aventus smells...its just that %95 of normal women aren't going to compliment you never mind start drooling and squirming around like a cat in heat...men will compliment men because 1..they like the way the fragrance. Your wearing smells...2 they want to know what your wearing so they can get it and increase their chances of getting women.
Men overhype it for ONE reason! And that’s because the women love it! My wife and her family love this fragrance when I wear it. She can’t stop smelling it. Lol!!
16K11 that’s my first batch ever. Holds a special place in my heart. Nice video man
Love 16K11! Great batch forsure
i love aventus in Terms of the smell, but the Performance of my 2018 Batch is awful.. im not trolling, but all my John varvatus fragrences, which are known for bad Performance, which is totally wrong nowadays, are Performing WAY BETTER then my aventus...
i think you Need a new Batch from 18 or 19 to finally argue if aventus is still worth the hype... 99% of the customers just buy them retail so they Always have the newest Batches..
Great video, glad to see all your success my brotha✌
Appreciate that as always bro 🙏🏻
i don't like the clones either, it kindof ruins the original for me a little bit and also you do feel better wearing the real thing rather than a fake
I also have 17N01, I think it's a great batch! I love PVI, PVI Gold and Emperor. I rock all of them and don't have any issue telling anybody.
17N01 is awesome! It got hate but now it’s actually pretty sought after, imagine that haha. Thanks for watching!
thoughts on 19P21?
Very interesting point.... “The real world “ I feel the same as you when I got my first AVENTUS , fragrances enthusiasts will love AVENTUS forever! REAL WORLD will buy OFFICE FOR MEN hands down LOL 😂. Nice video.
Haven’t seen you in a minute brotha! Thanks for stopping by
Chaos Fragrances always checking your amazing RUclips channel bro. Keep it going. Blessings.
just curious can i buy acqua di gio essenza from you
With the amount of time Aventus has been out, it’s a good time for a talk of this sort. Price increases, Batch variation, and decent clones that replicate specific batches all come into play.
I'm 100% with you on the majority of people don't know about creed aventus, we need to stop being paranoid about things like this but then again that's what makes us so passionate about this hobyy :)
Ppl dont know if aventus or not then why does it matter if you tell ppl thats club de nuit lol. Also Club de nuit is a clone not a fake. Fake would be the Aventus from China
SOTD! To me still great, I’m with you in sticking with original!
Couldn't agree more on the feeling of accomplishment when buying your first bottle.
Aventus was the holy grail to achieve and now I'm part of the chaos 😁.
Unfortunately I'm one of those frag heads who always needs a back up bottle of my favourites so it's only a matter of time before I buy a second bottle, despite barely using my first bottle as of yet 😂
Lol uh oh, I’m the same way. 5 bottles later... 😂its an addiction bro
I use L'aventure by Al haramain. A clone of aventus for $20. I get compliments

@@RosalezJohn 🙌🏻
i don’t have it in my modest size collection. but if i always want to spray it on in the store when i visit its a sign it’s high on my list. a 50ml bottle probably rather than stretching to the 100ml
For me it was the first and last time I bought a bottle of Aventus. It wss good but once I came across CDNI, there was no point in buying Aventus anymore.
In my opinion in terms of Scent and performance there are better options than modern Aventus batches, for example Emperor Extrait tends to smell and definitely perform better than Aventus today.
But Aventus is still Aventus and to some it may be worth the status.
Peekatew exactly any aventus addict that says otherwise still has their older bottle and hasn’t checked out any of the newer bottles
Agreed. Emperor easily outperforms 18 & 19 aventus imo.. I honestly prefer the pv versions..
I wanted to buy some Creed Aventus, but my bank loan was denied.
In my humble opinion come rain come sunshine Aventus still remains the king 🏆
You haven't talked about 2018/2019 batches of aventus! I think you should do a video on the latest batch of all most popular creed fragrances(Aventus,GIT,MI,VW,SMW and OS)
The 2018/2019 batches are better than what they are selling now
Great job Dallas, I got a travel size $50 just to see what the hype is about it and I loved it! I can't afford it but I love it. Thank you!
thanks for watching! glad you like it
Only problem is that longevity sucks 4hours max for that price
If i was gonna save up for a more expensive niche fragrance & it was gonna be the only niche fragrance i own id go for something a bit more elegant like a tobacco or oud type of thing that would be for special situations .
I have been thinking about this since the latest PV in which i thought Emporer Napoleon was a step backwards. I'm done with the Aventus clones there's too many and its killing everything the original Aventus was. Because the clones are either the fruity version or the woody version never the total Aventus experience. Fruity top woody middle and smokey drydown. That being said Creed themselves have not helped by watering down their Jewl in the Crown.
I now have 170ml of Aventus and 300ml worth of clones.
There are some expections but they are very few.
Anyone else got a 19s41?
I want to buy that one.whats your thoughts on it? How does it last/project?
The majority of people have never even heard of aventus let alone even creed!!! So in regular everyday life you may not run into too many folks up on it
this is why i wear it so much
True that 🙏🏻
I have bought my last bottle of Aventus! I bought a 2020 bottle earlier this year and it is my third bottle of aventus and also my last! My 2018 bottle is awesome and there is still a few mills left in it, it is powerful and potent and smells expensive! My 2020 bottle is such a disappointment, smells like a cheap clone and the performance is awful! My 2018 batch would last all day and I could smell it in my clothes the next day and even the day after! It pains me to say do not buy it guys it’s awful! I have no idea what creed have done but it is def not worth the money! My new fav is amouage reflection
What is ur fav batch of 2018
