When I first received the EDT version, ONE SPRAY WAS SUPER STRONG; it filled out the entire room. After a few weeks of usage, I really can't smell it anymore.
Creed Aventus isn't the fragrance it was! Since it's reformulation all it is now is an expensive clone of Club de Nuit which is now more like Creed than Creed! There's an old saying " if it works don't fix it " ! They should have left it alone!
EDP is the best of this line. It smells like the original Creed Aventus from back in the day... The EDT has the lemon in the opening. The Limited is watered down. Buy the EDP put three sprays on you. Then buy Demeters pineapple and spray once... You will have the Creed Aventus pineapple fruity batch from 2016. You're welcome.
let the limited macerate for a few weeks imo. I found it was the most well rounded from the line. the smokiness was perfect. how do you find the limited edition now
I will probably agree that the edp version of cdnim is finest one, there is something in the LE that doesnt cut it as the EDP.. the pure parfum is amazing too and it lasts 2-3 hours longer
I have the EDT and the Limited Edition version. I never wear the EDT. I bought a decant of Aventus a while back to see how close the CDNI was to the original and I was shocked at how close the Limited Edition was to the original. The clone lasted longer and projects better imo. When I wear the original, I get about an hour of projection, then it’s skin scent throughout the lifespan of the fragrance. I’m probably going to buy a bottle in the future just for the culture lol, but I’m not in a rush anytime soon. The Limited Edition is good enough for me.
Same for me too. Bought the limited edition and real aventus and tested side by side. The only difference was the in the beginning. Aventus had a little mancera cedrat boise thing going on at 1st but quickly settles to smelling like the limited edition. The limited edition just smells richer and stronger. However, the limited edition gives me a headache whereas the aventus doesn't lol. Ps oud for greatness gives me a headache too so i don't think it's the cheapness lol
@@redwanhossain5181 The EDT to my nose is harsh, harsher than the parfums. But it smells amazing in the air, not that u would enjoy it lol. The best part of it is the smell after about 8 hrs. It's the best smelling after that 8 hr mark. I wear the edt for others not for me. Compliment magnet, but ur nose will pay for it lol
I wish I could smell this pineapple in Aventus that so many ppl describe. I get zero pineapple when i smell Creed Aventus. I have a Middle Eastern called Qaed Al Fursan by Lataffa now that thing actually smells like Pineapple to me. Great vid as always!
Layer that Al fursan or rave now with any CDNIM and you get a good smokey pineapple. I like the CDNIM edp and parfum the citrus is tone down and i use the Al fursan to give it the pineapple.
I can’t make up my mind. Thanks to you, I’m just buying all of these here 😂. I’m a big fan of Creed Aventus. I’ve owned 2 bottles. This last one I have, I’m treating it like it’s the last one in the world. I’m using it lightly because let’s be honest, it’s a pretty penny. But I’ve heard great reviews of these Intense from CDN. I’m definitely buying them all. Might as well. New to the channel and new subscriber. Great video. Thanks
U went ahead and did it, you bought all 4 😂 you are truely a fragrance addict haha im just laying in bed all day today stressed out trying to figure out which is best, im obsessive and apparently have horrible coping skills when it comes to trying to decide with fragrance versions, ooooh it does me in fam, subscriped fosho
This shit has definitely been changed or reformulated, I got a bottle in 2021 of the EDT right off the bat it was insanely good, not much lemon, light smoke with this crisp pine needle, xmas ish scent with vanilla and musk soapy clean. Was absolutely bomb!! I wish I knew what batch it was but never looked, ….unfortunately I ran out of that bottle and got another one… and man WTF did they change, it’s not the same scent at all… it was like a dry smoked lemon peel and that’s it, even after months of no use never changed. I gave that bottle away and ordered 2 more bottles last week, making sure one was (made in France) and the other (made in UAE) both batches were 05/2024. And again not at all the same scent. Just straight dried out lemon peel that was smoked. I wish I knew what was changed and I wish I could find the scent of my first bottle… have tried every other Aventus dupe and nothing comes close to that first bottle of armaf I got in 2021. I have 2 bottles of Aventus, yes my first 2021 bottle has some aventus dna but to this day best scent I have smelled was my first bottle of CDNIM in 2021. Picked up a canned body spray, just to see if it had the smell and scent of the first bottle I got (2021) and…. It was very close but slight different and also didn’t last but it brought back that amazing smell I was looking for. Don’t know why they changed the EDT. I’ve tried limited edition and EDP still not the same as the 2021 EDT If anyone knows what has changed or experienced same thing and has found something with that pine/xmas vanilla musk and lemon let me know!!
How long have you use that new EDT? Try to maturate it. Use few times and put to dark place - try again after few (maybe 8) weeks. Some times gently shake the bottle.
If I'd known what I know now. I would have gotten two bottles of CDNIM Limited Edition and never bought Aventus. I could have saved money and still have got the version of aventus I love with better performance.
@dejvisvideos I asked them. It's the freshness in the air. Massively fresh. 3 compliments just in the last week. I've never gotten compliments off any fragrance in my life except the edt. It's really weird.
More Great Content. I've had the EDT and that joint was a compliment monster for me EVERYTIME I put it on. I have the EDP now and it still gets the job done, but its alot smoother and subtle. Doubt if I'll ever grab the others because the EDP Bottle seems like ENDLESS juice. Plus I have the Afnan Not Only for that DNA as well. But you make a Very solid case for the LE Parfum.
I have "afnan supremacy not only intense" I am thinking of getting armaf intense man EDT . But I am solely concerned about the compliments Do you think This is a good idea?
IMHO....Having a CDNIM on hand is a win in any collection. Either incarnation works....EDT should definitely get you compliments just gotta get past that rougher opening. The 6.7 ounce EDP is probably the best value and it solves the harsh opening with smoothness. I can't speak on the others (LE Parfum or Pure Parfum.) @@pototejiri4111
Think about this from a legal standpoint the harsh opening of the original EDT might have to do with the fact you can only come so close to the original Creed without a lawsuit
All colognes are macerated when their making the product and it matures as it sits on the shelves and in our homes,really appreciate the video my mannnnnn 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
I'm a true fan of the Aventus DNA it's the king for a reason. I still have the edt I bought in 2018 my most complimented fragrance. I even had the gen1 edt that had the lemon pledge thing going on but at the same time that puppy pulled compliments left and right with nuclear performance. My second favorite clone is Reyanne Insurrection pure II wich is my second most complimented fragrance. The DNA WORKS PERIOD! Like you said in the air it's all the same. Great breakdown.
2018 cdnim EDT was the last true time cdnim had a really powerful presence about it..I had 2017..18.19..20 the 2019 was pretty decent but 2020 was weaker..still smelled great but lost some zip that 2019 had..it sat for a while got lil better though..not by much even now in 2024 it's probably been stabilized at what my 2020 batch was ..honestly don't know.
I have the 2024 cdnim edp 200ml non limited edition..I would say it's between 2018-2019 EDT in terms of longevity and sillage etc..but smells much better.
You Know I LOVE Me Some CDNIM!!!... Just Got A New Bottle In Yesterday, It's Been A Couple Weeks Since I've Worn It, Gonna Have To Pop That Cherry On That New Bottle This Week😂😂😂
Damn that was a GREAT review!! I just received my bottle today. First time trying a clone. Thanks for the info. If all goes well.. will purchase others in the line. 🚀🚀🚀
Thank you for this review. I do appreciate it 👍. I am a true Creed Aventus fan. I love the dna. I have many Creed Aventus dupes/clones. CDNIM Pure Parfum and CDNIM EDT and CDNIM Pure oil are my 3 favorites imo. All three perform well. All three smell amazing. All three are still in heavy rotation. I'm also digging Hamidi intense. Smells amazing and resembles the older batches of Creed Aventus. Another favorite of mine and glad to have it in my collection.
@@MuhammadIrfanSaifulAzmi That's a difficult question to answer. The older or newer batch? Creed Aventus has the fruity-citrusy batch and the woody/birch batch. Hamidi Addicted Intense last forever on my skin and smells nice. My CDNIM Pure Parfum is amazing. It also last forever on my skin and clothes. My bottle was very woody/birch heavy at first. After 6 months, now it is becoming more fruity-citrusy. Rayhaan Imperia is some good stuff too. Smells like the older batches of Creed Aventus. Last up to 7+ hours on skin. Supremacy Not Only Intense is a beast. 👍
I bought the the EDT cologne because of the reviews and I was quickly disappointed. Yes, it's very overpowering, but the scent smelled very cheap, cheaper than the already cheap price tag. It reminded me of my late grandmother's friends perfume that they wore on Sunday's at church. I don't understand the hype. Really don't.
GREAT CONTENT AS USUAL MY BROTHER. I OWN THE PURE PARFUM WHICH IM ROCKING TODAY. ALSO, I JUST RECENTLY GOTTEN IN TWO LIMITED EDITIONS TO HAVE THIS DNA FOR LIFE.
Hello mate, I'm just asking for advice. I bought CDNIM EDP version of 200ml (for 60€), the perfume is logically original, and I bought it from a reliable source. Batch is from 8/2023, made in France, new, unpacked, everything normal. I looked at a bunch of reviews, comments, forums, etc. all over the internet about that perfume, and what everyone praised the most was projection, sillage and durability, because literally no one complains about it, people sa its a beast mode even with a newer batches. I sprayed 4 sprays on myself, and it lasted for about 3-4 hours, with a good projection for the first 30minutes, then it becomes a skin scent. At first I thought that I had become so-called nose blind to perfume, but I asked others and they say that they cant smell it. I don't know what it is and I really don't understand that it only lasts so short for me, I heard that for some perfumes you need to do the so-called "maturation" What do you think, i am dissapointed?
Either one or two things here.. this could be a skin chemistry issue where the fragrance oils are just not compatible with your skin, or you could have gotten a bad batch.. maceration is real.. let it sit for a few weeks or a few months and retry again.
There is Ambroxan in it, not real Ambergris as Fragrantica would have you believe. This cologne is too cheap and synthetic to even use the real deal which costs thousands per kilo to obtain.
Hey Big D, I have been waiting for this video. Masterfully explained. My 30ml bottle of the EDP is coming to an end and I wasn’t sure which version to go with. I am going to digest your comments and go from there. Great work.
@@dedrickhicksjr On reflection after digesting your comments on your video. I am ordering the limited edition parfum. Seems to be a good half way house of fruity and smoky. Thanks again Big D.
@@creep.46 I would say they project the same. The LE is smoother and a better scent. TBH honest if projection longevity is your main consideration the EDP will work just as well as the LE.
You should try Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense, also a beast mode fragrance. I have the Pure Parfum and Limited Edition from Armaf. I like the Afnan SNOI better then the pure parfum version, the blackcurrant is just so dominant in it, it's really good. Nevertheless, my favorite is Limited Edition.
@@profound369 I got the 05/23. Did you spray 15 and let it sit for a month? Although, mine was already beast mode out of the box, but it even improved further.
Just received limited edition pure parfum. And so far the performance is weak… Weak weak weak. My EDT in 2021 was a beast. This one is so subtle. The next day I smell my shirt and it’s not there. But when I wore my edt. That would stick to clothes for days. Idk what’s going on with my batch. But it’s 06/2023
That’s very interesting.. could be a weak batch or skin chemistry idk.. I get really good performance. Let it sit and mancerate for a while, don’t give up On it..
@@ravindranj6862 it smells better but it becomes a skin scent. It’s not the major blastor the EDT is. But it smells way better. I’m just gonna have to double up on sprays
In fact, it is more amazing than the 2019 Aventus, which I have. Smoke Smoke Smoke is charming, but I have not tried the 2013 batch, so what is your experience?
@@dedrickhicksjr I went from listening to a few other RUclipsrs to your video and your commentary was noticeably quieter. Great video as usual other then that!
I still don't own any armaf. Only middle easterns I own currently are hawas, 9am dive and Pendora Scents Saviour. Was thinking urban man elixir for my first armaf
In terms of the edp vs the pure parfum they are both the same price but the EDP is 200ml and the Pure parfum is 150ml....so is the pure parfum worth getting over the edp at the same price with even 50ml less juice. I already have the edp and was considering getting either another bottle or get the pure parfum.
Just used my entire bottle of CDNIM Limited edition a few weeks ago. If you want a better quality of aventus, you’ll have to try….. - Parfum Vintage Emperor Extrait - Scentual Obession King of Kings - New bottle company Aventus variation Guarantee you guys want be disappointed 🫡
I didn’t even know there’s a fourth version, the pure parfum. So thankful I watched. 👋🏽
FINALLY someone compares them all.
I got the EDT and it’s a compliment beast,I thought it was weak because i can’t smell it but other people definitely smell me all day
When I first received the EDT version, ONE SPRAY WAS SUPER STRONG; it filled out the entire room. After a few weeks of usage, I really can't smell it anymore.
Same here! I think because I had a family member that would wear it that my brain ignores it now. But definitely noticeable great projection
@@howaboutno4586 which batch?

Great video. I have the EDT love the DNA. Compliment magnet
Reasoning, EDT alcohol top layers wear off and expose the smoke and layers of the fragrance.
Excellent breakdown of the CDNIM Line. The Limited Edition Parfum is my personal favorite.
Creed and MFK Baccarat Rouge 540 are the King and Queen of Fragrances, we can all agree to that
as dumb as people think I am. I wear my Curve from Wal-Mart more than I do my Sauvage, YSL Y EDP, or CDNIM.
These Clones can Copy steal everything from others except good taste on Bottles !!!

Is the LE the only one with Ambroxan in it? Because I somehow cannot smell Ambroxan (Dior Sauvage)
To my knowledge there isn’t any ambroxan in any CDNIM.
There is Ambroxan in it, not real Ambergris as Fragrantica would have you believe. This cologne is too cheap and synthetic to even use the real deal which costs thousands per kilo to obtain.

Should I get edt or edp
I’d start with the edt.. can’t go wrong with either..
Hey Big D, I have been waiting for this video. Masterfully explained. My 30ml bottle of the EDP is coming to an end and I wasn’t sure which version to go with. I am going to digest your comments and go from there. Great work.
Let me know which one you get.
@@dedrickhicksjr On reflection after digesting your comments on your video. I am ordering the limited edition parfum. Seems to be a good half way house of fruity and smoky. Thanks again Big D.
@@Fragman-Scoop dope! Hope you enjoy it!!
@@creep.46 It’s definitely smoother but in all honesty the EDP will work just as well.
@@creep.46 I would say they project the same. The LE is smoother and a better scent. TBH honest if projection longevity is your main consideration the EDP will work just as well as the LE.
I have the EDT haven't tried the EDP yet
You should try Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense, also a beast mode fragrance. I have the Pure Parfum and Limited Edition from Armaf. I like the Afnan SNOI better then the pure parfum version, the blackcurrant is just so dominant in it, it's really good. Nevertheless, my favorite is Limited Edition.
Mine doesn't seem beast mode. My production date is 6/23 that's why I'm watching this video. I got the 150ml 6/23 version
@@profound369 I got the 05/23. Did you spray 15 and let it sit for a month? Although, mine was already beast mode out of the box, but it even improved further.
@@Version-ru1mj mine has been sitting a week. Do you have the 100ml or 150ml version?
@@profound369 I have the 150ml version. Be patient, wait for another 3 weeks, fingers crossed bro.
@@Version-ru1mj I tried it again after I replied and it was awesome today. A lady said I smell amazing. Apparently I was nose blind
Excellent review. Well presented and edited
Thank you man! I really appreciate that!
My guy are u reviewing the 2023 batch of the cdnim edt or 2022?
2022
Great breakdown, appreciate you
Thanks Zoro! Thanks for watching!
Can we still get the fruity notes in the drydown?
Not as fruity.. the earthy tones come out in the dry down..
@@dedrickhicksjr but pineapple gives the smell of bergamot, doesn't it? I made a blind purchase of pure parfum before I tried the edp decant.
Thank you so much for making this video. Extremely helpful. Cheers! 🥂
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Mane how you forget the Splaka up down all round Outo hahaha
I was tripping!

Welcome To The Smell Good Family!
Which one do you recommend?
The limited edition Parfum.
nice review bro, greetings from romania 🇷🇴 big up 💪🏻🙏🏻💥
Thanks for watching Sunny!
Hey nice, what about the Elixir version?
That’s a separate fragrance from this line.. but I think it’s pretty good..
Thanks a lot 🙏
Just received limited edition pure parfum. And so far the performance is weak… Weak weak weak. My EDT in 2021 was a beast. This one is so subtle. The next day I smell my shirt and it’s not there. But when I wore my edt. That would stick to clothes for days. Idk what’s going on with my batch. But it’s 06/2023
That’s very interesting.. could be a weak batch or skin chemistry idk.. I get really good performance. Let it sit and mancerate for a while, don’t give up
On it..
@@dedrickhicksjr I’ll update in 4 weeks and see if there is any difference there. But all in all. The actual smell of the fragrance is phenomenal.
@@Changoleon1100hey. How is it performing now?
@@ravindranj6862 it smells better but it becomes a skin scent. It’s not the major blastor the EDT is. But it smells way better. I’m just gonna have to double up on sprays
which one is the smokiest , or at least another good aventus clone that is smoky
The pure Parfum
I LOVE YOUR PAGE!!!!! Man!!!!! Too elegant!!! Too well spoken!!!!
Thank you bro!!
Instant sub, loved this vid great insight. God bless.
Thanks bro! Welcome to the Smell Good Family!!
I just ordered the limited edition version. Can’t wait. I love the smoky batches of Aventus from back in 2013.
It’s good!!
any updates?
@@upthefuckingreds2546 ??
In fact, it is more amazing than the 2019 Aventus, which I have. Smoke Smoke Smoke is charming, but I have not tried the 2013 batch, so what is your experience?
Thank you
Salute
Which one is the closest to the original Creed Aventus?
I’d say the limited edition Parfum
@@dedrickhicksjrif I can get one, which do you recommend?
@@VF5 you looking for more of a fruity batch or a earthy batch
@@dedrickhicksjr hmm...just the highest quality all around that I can wear for office work
Huge review!
If i could suggest doing something different for a mic so that we can hear you better
Never heard that before.. I use a professional mic.. I’ll watch back and see if I missed a edit to enhance the quality..
@@dedrickhicksjr I went from listening to a few other RUclipsrs to your video and your commentary was noticeably quieter. Great video as usual other then that!
@@mixsignal91 thanks for the feed back
Nice take😊
LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I still don't own any armaf. Only middle easterns I own currently are hawas, 9am dive and Pendora Scents Saviour. Was thinking urban man elixir for my first armaf
Definitely worth getting your nose on bro!
Can somebody tell me where to buy it from? What’s a good place to buy it from and it’s real I’m talking about the clone.
ARMAF club de nuit intense Man EDT Men New in Box, Black , 3.6 Fl Oz a.co/d/3CPWKGj
Great breakdown and pretty accurate IMO. Each one good in there own way!
Drew!! Preciate you man!
Thank you for your review. Very detailed, very good
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
In terms of the edp vs the pure parfum they are both the same price but the EDP is 200ml and the Pure parfum is 150ml....so is the pure parfum worth getting over the edp at the same price with even 50ml less juice.
I already have the edp and was considering getting either another bottle or get the pure parfum.
The difference between the 2 is that the pure Parfum is a bit more earthy.. the edp holds a lil more freshness to it..
@@dedrickhicksjrWhat do you think is there a difference in projection between EDP and Parfum?
So 1.limited edition
2.pure parpum
3.edt and 4.edp
Is that right?
In the order I reviewed them?
Just used my entire bottle of CDNIM Limited edition a few weeks ago.
If you want a better quality of aventus, you’ll have to try…..
- Parfum Vintage Emperor Extrait
- Scentual Obession King of Kings
- New bottle company Aventus variation
Guarantee you guys want be disappointed 🫡
I agree with that vintage emperor extract
is the drydown of the le the same as the edt? because i love the drydown of the edt but would be cool have a version without the harsh opening
No it’s much smoother
@@dedrickhicksjr so if i like the drydown of the edt as it is, i dont really need the le?
