It's not so surprising if you consider the batch code. 15X01 is a vintage pineapple-centric batch. Compared to what the real stuff is selling for, the fake is made to look like a bargain.
I’d feel dirty just wearing that fake. When I started collecting fragrances I got a fake bottle of Eros, it smelt like urine in the bottle. Have developed a deep hatred for fakes ever since.
Wow I love the passive aggressive movements. Perfect ending. I wanted to know how the scent was. And for $350+, they failed terribly. There are fake Jordan shoes that are identical
The easiest way to tell if it is fake is to remove the sprayer cap and look at the washer under neath. 99% of the time, the fakes use a metal washer under the sprayer. The real ones use a white plastic washer.
Do you know if Amouages and Parfume de Marleys are victims to this as well or is it mainly a Creed thing due to the popularity and the status of the brand?
Thanks for the comparison and hopefully less people will fall victim to these fakes but that is an very expensive. I'm also getting ASMR vibes from this which is really relaxing/satisfying, was that done intentionally?
Thanks for watching! I get questions about eBay deals on creed aventus all the time and most of the time they are a fake but this video will hopefully help!
Great video. I just purchased a 50ml bottle in the UK from John Lewis online. They are supposed to be a reputable store. At least I know what to look for if it's a fake.
The ASMR is strong with this one. But goodness are these counterfeiters bad at their jobs. The box doesn't even look right. All you'd have to do is take a photo of the box and duplicate that plus the shape of the bottle is a Google search away. I love how you flicked the box away with such disdain.
Creed does and still do make 4oz (120ml) bottles. So having a 120ml does not suggest it's a fake... you want know for sure if it's fake or real. Remove the spray nozzle off your bottle and look at the outer ring. If It's any other color besides a white plastic looking piece. You have a fake bottle!!!! I don't care what color the bottle is check the outer ring that's a dead giveaway.
Are you sure they aren't both fake?? Real Creeds are supposed to NEVER be wrapped in cellophane...ever. Also, I would have pulled the atomizer head off and checked for the white ring on both of them which is supposed to indicate it's real...but what do I know
@@Mr.Plutonium I did buy Viking Cologne straight from the New York Creed Boutique and it WASN'T wrapped. Maybe it's only for certain markets where they use the wrap and I am hearing more and more they are starting to do this more...
I’m no expert, but I’m not entirely sure that was fake. Creed had 120 ml and 75ml bottles to start off, then switched to 50ml and 100ml. That could have been an old bottle, but it also might have been a fake.🤷♂️
Why none of the reviewers compare the actual smell? When it comes to Aventus, this scent is extremally hard to fake and no other brand has done a good clone, so it's obvious it would be a crap, but smell it and tell it...
I think both bottles should have hit the wall. The House of Creed is now owned by a big hedge fund and even you would agree that the quality of the recent batches has fallen off considerably. Forget about this bad Chinese fake. Aventus has not evolved and has become a template. Chromatography machines now make it possible to replicate Creed fragrances and there are a handful of the hated "clones" that are so good, that if that juice was in an Aventus bottle, they would be hailed as inspired.
I paid $20 for a fake. In the hot weather, it’s not bad for the price. But, I also have 200 ml of an original batch, decanted from a 1 liter container, which is brown, and nearly pure oil.
@@bbosafredrick3579 Oh yeah. That opening, acidic pineapple note stays with me. It blends so well with the patchouli. 2 sprays at noon, and 24 hours later the scent is still there. Even after a shower, workout, another shower and a change of clothes. I don’t wear it very often. It’s my black tie, dating frag. I don’t want to tire of it either.
i bought a fake today in new york near chinatown for $20 lol it smells like cleaning supplies at the mall no box or anything , the lady said its an overstock tester from a european warehouse obviously i cant return it
Monicka--------we miss your beautiful voice, your intelligent commentary, and your lovely face!---I could go on. Please don't ever make a silent video again! Nice video all the same.
The fake is of the old design cap and they used to do 120ml but not anymore.
Exactly, there is no 120ml available on Creed's website and the bottle is just sloppy.
@@MonikaColognes Batch code of the fake is 15X01, and at that point in time, 120ml bottles were available. But cellophane-wrapped boxes were not. ;)
Great video 🙌🏻❤️
@@MonikaColognes no smell test though
Definitely make these silent unboxings a regular thing plssss😭💤so relaxing and educational
I lol’ed hard at the end. Was not expecting that 😂🤣
Haha 😂
Love the ending lol. How does the fake one smell compared to the real version, is it even close to similar?
Nice throw! Nothing will ever grown in that spot now. 😂
Again, this ah great service to us out here in fragrance land. This was very well much needed!!!!!! "THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
That ending! 🤣🤣🤣
This is why I just buy Club De Nuit LOL..If I had this happen to me, I'd be heated
just by from a legit store and you will get the real deal. Aventus is much better then Club de nuit
@@mixedpleasure4324 aventus low performance tho?
@@alisedits6022 not on me
@@mixedpleasure4324 Where did you get your Aventus from please?
This was oddly relaxing... and damn that's very expensive for a fake product.
Thank you! That's exactly what I said when first watching the video :) I can't believe sellers are getting away with selling the fake for so much!

Great info 📹 and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

Thank you. I was going to buy a fake one but your video stopped me. I love the unboxing sound
Creed used to make 120ml bottles fyi
Thank you for chucking that fake into the wall 🤣
That was exceptionally relaxing. ❤️❤️❤️ the ending….. exquisitely funny and unexpected.
Wow I love the passive aggressive movements. Perfect ending. I wanted to know how the scent was. And for $350+, they failed terribly. There are fake Jordan shoes that are identical
Amazing mic quality, which one that?
End of the video...great! 😂💥
Creed used to make 120ml bottles, they just don't do it nowadays. Thought i'd clear this up.
Yep, they are trying to sell them as new bottles
LMAOOO the end 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
That one is clearly fake, but Creed used to make a 120ml bottle.
Hi, I ordered creed online from a shop based in UK. Then I have noticed that the link named ,copy of aventuse. Is it possible that it is fake????😢
The easiest way to tell if it is fake is to remove the sprayer cap and look at the washer under neath. 99% of the time, the fakes use a metal washer under the sprayer. The real ones use a white plastic washer.
I feel so sorry for all of the people scammed over fake aventus, and don't understand how amazing the scent is.
Your video is a great example of how to tell the an authentic box and bottle from a knockoff.
Hi Monika! Keep up with your videos. You're Amazing. What kind of fragrance do you suggest for a 18yo guy?
Thank you! You can't go wrong with Versace Pour Homme!
It’s always been my understanding that authentic Creed will NEVER be wrapped or sealed in cellophane or plastic wrap.
Yep...no checking of white ring under atomizer head either...
In the past it wasn't. But starting with 2019 batches, boxes are cellophane-wrapped.
@@FjordPrefect my 2019 SMW wasn't cellophane wrapped and came from fragrancenet...
@@nicktoth3994 It happened to Aventus in the course of that year. My 2020 bottles of MI and GIT came unwrapped.
@@FjordPrefect I just bought a new Creed Silver Mountain Water 3/4 months ago, and it was not wrapped in plastic.

I hope so too! We don’t need fakes in our lives!
Creed doesn't make 120ml bottles anymore. They use to. Also very thorough comparison well done. And that ending lmaooooooooooo EPIC!
Great you guys doing service to us so that we don’t become victims.. kudos 👍🏽
Thanks for watching! I get questions about eBay deals on creed aventus all the time and most of the time they are a fake but this video will hopefully help!
I would never pay so much for a juice that costs the 1/10 of the retail price.
The juice in the fake was just horrible. I can still smell it when I walk by
Great video. I just purchased a 50ml bottle in the UK from John Lewis online. They are supposed to be a reputable store. At least I know what to look for if it's a fake.
The biggest giveaway of a fake: the feather plume on the box is not hot stamped with silver and the atomizer doesn't have the black sleeve around it.
I rather just pay £30 for Armaf CDNIM tbh
What About the scent, how did the fake one smell?
The scent wasn’t even similar it was like a poundland/dollartree version of an Armani code.
Need to compare 120 mls side by side

can you check the Creed Aventus perfume for authenticity if I send you photos of the perfume?
Thumbs up for the wall toss at the end!!
Creed does and still do make 4oz (120ml) bottles.
So having a 120ml does not suggest it's a fake... you want know for sure if it's fake or real.
Remove the spray nozzle off your bottle and look at the outer ring.

I don't care what color the bottle is check the outer ring that's a dead giveaway.
Haha love the end!
I have an aventus where when nozzle removed its white inside. Is it fake or not?
Yes it should be white inside once the little spray cap is removed
Are you sure they aren't both fake?? Real Creeds are supposed to NEVER be wrapped in cellophane...ever. Also, I would have pulled the atomizer head off and checked for the white ring on both of them which is supposed to indicate it's real...but what do I know
False, late 2019 and < Aventus is wrapped.

I am sorry 4 ur loss
Stay safe
You forgot to do the last test with the original. I would appreciate it so I can detect which one is the fake from watching the difference.
Despite being fake it still sold at $300
Bro tell me if it was real bottle but reflid with fake liquid please tell me how to spot the fake liquid
The end 😂😅👌🏼
I like the throw at the end. No words need!! That was one costly fake.
Mines can't be fake I got the 120ml in 2017 smokey pineapple ... still smell it in my clothes in the morning
Are you selling?
Aventus doesn't have any smoke after like 2012.
I wont be buying either. It's way too expensive.
Plot twist: it's not fake, it's just a bad batch
=D
So much detail in the fake one it almost looks legit,
Aaron had two fake bottles on his channel also
Never had this fragrance but as I watch the video there were a lot of similarities but a few differences
I’m no expert, but I’m not entirely sure that was fake. Creed had 120 ml and 75ml bottles to start off, then switched to 50ml and 100ml. That could have been an old bottle, but it also might have been a fake.🤷♂️
You forgot to show the under the atomizer.
They didn’t even try!!!😂😂😂
This was informative and Funny
since when does creed wrap the box in plastic...wtf
Nice! Thank you!!
I thought creed didn't come wrapped in plastic?!
excellent vid

You should have found a real 120ml to compare to the fake 120ml.
It is definitely a fake, I hope that person stops selling nonsense to people.
However you still get 120ml original bottles roaming around on Ebay.
Tell me I’m wrong but isn’t she just comparing an old version vs the new
They used to make 120mL bottles
Why you break it,you can used as toilet air freshener
I paid $20 for a fake. In the hot weather, it’s not bad for the price. But, I also have 200 ml of an original batch, decanted from a 1 liter container, which is brown, and nearly pure oil.

Ummmmmmm neither should be wrapped in cellophane 😩
Okay I’ve just been scammed 🤣
Thx
But does it SMELL the same? I could accept it if my pride if my nose didn't know the difference :P
355$ for the fake? tooo expensive! its cheaper! you can buy it sure for 50$ (maybe not in your county but in europe)
Counterfeiting is a multi billion dollar business. Made Jeff Bezos the richest man in America. 😂
I like this series
There ist no 355 dollar fake on the market 😂
They are way better now
They’re both fake , real creed doesn’t come with plastic wrap
false, late 2019 and after come with cellophane.
Monika you would be great at ASMR lol
Anyone had both the fake and authentic? I just got a free fake and definitely smells cheap
i bought a fake today in new york near chinatown for $20 lol
it smells like cleaning supplies at the mall
no box or anything , the lady said its an overstock tester from a european warehouse
obviously i cant return it
