Description
Aventus celebrates strength, vision and success, inspired by the dramatic life of war, peace and romance lived by Emperor Napoleon. The bottle is emblazoned with a silver emblem of a horse and rider.
The finest ingredients were hand-selected for this composition, and father and son developed this provocative, masculine and optimistic fragrance as a joint effort.
Top notes: blackcurrant, bergamot, apple and pineapple. Heart: rose, dry birch, Moroccan jasmine and patchouli. Base: oak moss, musk, ambergris, and vanilla.
Aventus is available in flacons of 30, 75, 120 and 250 ml. Aventus was launched in 2010. Aventus was created by Olivier Creed Sixth Generation and Erwin Creed Seventh Generation.

Now this guy is the exact personification of what i tried to get across in my previews post below. A moronic aventus fan boy who is telling us that if you dont like aventus, you basically are kind of olfactorily disabled, sick, undeserving, inferior etc. as aventus in his limited mind, should be loved and worshiped by the whole human race. Folks, if you dont like aventus, dont question the fragrance, question your own nose and while you are at it, question your whole existence too.

I love it, and don’t Think you can computer this scient to any other on the Market. If you Got the money; but it. If you Got the money; but it. If not, do not. You cant compare it by price, because there are so many other options on the frag market. All I can say is, that I’m Very glad to Call me an owner.
pypeerold – :
@PaulDell your saying there’s no difference between a 2010-2014 Smokey batch and a 2016-17 pineapple heavy (no smoke) batch? Jog on son.
alex1111 – :
Lots of people add their 2 penny reviews about this fragrance from just whiffing it at a store. Funny. Then you have what I call dumb batch heads or batch Dr’s who think they know the subtle differences between each “batch” produced. So stupid and annoying. I just don’t even have words.
I have a bottle, and have purchased several over the years. I can tell you this, it’s forever in my top 3 fragrances. Yes, I have received compliment over compliment over the years. I’ve even whitnessed several women acting “funny” towards me after smelling me. This is in no reason why I continue purchase. I buy it because it’s by far the most versatile, long lasting/projecting, pleasant smelling fragrance out there. I don’t tie myself to a “signature scent” but this is up there.
Haters gonna hate on this one.

Transposing some modern and youthful ingredients over the most classic form possible in male perfumes (fougere) manages to bring passions to the world of perfume lovers.
The quality of the ingredients is beyond doubt, but even so the price seems ridiculous.
The batch used now seems to me quite different from the one I tried a few years ago, in which the pineapple flavor seemed to me stronger. The big olfactory change found quite often reminds me of the Forest Gump surprise candy … you never know if the surprise is a nice one or not …
Longevity is a great one (for me all day) and the projection is moderate, which is also something positive.
Although I would like to wear it from time to time, Aventus has not addicted me at all.
Fragrance 8/10
Projection Medium
Longevity 12 h

unique and versatile, good longevity and projection.
This is in my opinion what an adventurer would smell like, personally wouldn’t use this for formal purposes.
Akeks CH – :
I wanted to like Creed Aventus, I really did. But upon receiving a 2ml genuine sample, to say I disappointed was an understatement. None of the fruity notes came through, the only smells I could detect was a hard heavy musk, tobacco, damp wood and a smell akin to the time my Labrador took a dip in the local marina. I decided to spray some on a card and have another smell, but alas, no change.
A few days later I was passing my local department store and decided to pop inside to smell Aventus directly from the bottle, lo and behold, exactly the same. Now I understand there are roughly 2 million different batch variations of Aventus, and I’m sure there are some that smell a lot better than others, but in all honesty, instead of paying $300 for a bottle of Aventus, I’d pay $300 never to smell it again.
Now that I have the Aventus fanboys seething, I’d like to conclude by saying, I understand some people may love Aventus, more power to you, but it is, by far my least favorite fragrance until someone manages to concentrate the smell of rancid meat.
bor4ik – :
Creed Aventus is beautiful and unique and definitely a compliment getter there is no doubt but is it worth of money ??aspecially there are few very similar scent out in the market called Armaf club de nuit intense,P&M Aventus and L’Aventure.i understand the opening is a bit harsh of armaf and L’Aventure doesn’t project much but P&M Aventus is far better then the other two on my skin and longtivty and projection is absoulty amazing.
posterVIP1281 – :
Never liked this sweet fruit punch. I have seen many little fan boys who didn’t even know how to spell fragrance but were proud of their aventus next to their only other bottle of Eros or 1million on their shelves and those guys were the same who terrorized all kind of internet platforms, registering on forums defending their newly acquired aventus to death based on the first 3 sprays.

About 15 years ago when I was a university student, I used to wear fake fragrance from street fragrance shops in Indonesia (you’ll find many there). My favorite was (fake) Bvlgari Pour Homme Extreme. It smelled very sexy and suited my sport personality. The thing about fake fragrances is they smell different from the original. BUT…BUT…. this fake BPHE smelled much better than the original. So I had been wearing fake BPHE for nearly 10 years. I stopped wearing it because I felt older and less active.
When I smelled the famous, “king” of fragrance, Aventus Creed(2.5ml) for the first time, I was completely shocked by how similar this fragrance to my fake BPHE. I just smiled and my wife even said “that’s your old fragrance”. I used to love this fragrance. Now it’s between like and meh… been there.
AC is a sexy fragrance, for well-built men under 35. This fragrance gave me similar vibe to Tom Ford Grey Vetiver edp. Well, AC is sexier.
And if you happen to be in Indonesia, try BPHE from street fragrance shops. They are very similar (the BPHE is a bit harsh, like Armaf CDNI). But you can get 10 ml for one US dollar!

I have a weird relationship with aventus
I’m trying so hard to not liking it anymore cause it’s so damn famous but I can’t. Every time I smell it I just go crazy of how amazing it smells. It just smells divine. Wish it wasn’t popular. I want my fragrance to be unique and whenever people smell it on me they be like “What is that” Not like “Oh it is aventus”.
This is God of fragrances who is victim of its own success.
RB00 – :
I let my cat smell my colognes, when he smelt this one he tried to eat the sprayer. Defiantly loved aventus but he probably wouldn’t like to taste it.
About a week later I came home and he had bought himself a bottle of creed along side a suit, tie and a classy pair of shoes.
4 months later he now own shares in over 100 multi-million dollar companies, drives a Maserati and listens to Miles Davis on the deck of his Villa in Costa Rica surrounded by beautiful women drinking the finest of french champagne.
даня – :
Perfume that is not worth the fame it has. Persistence is weak and this makes it a scent too expensive for what it should represent. I much prefer Afnan Supremacy Silver (one of my favorites).
Rating: 7/10
escollacrag – :
@mazga, out of more than half a milion fragrantica users. Which means that just about 1% of perfume enthustiasts have Aventus. It’s not hard to believe.
Joe Kuvalda – :
Seriously has Creed done something to the latter batches? I bought two new bottles now and both smell less deep and more citrusy.
The decants I have smell better.
Fragrantica should judge Aventus after year/batch because it’s very different
xthyzdcrbq – :
Creed Aventus is beautiful. It’s unique. It effortlessly outperforms all clones I’ve tried in terms of scent.
Smell is amazing. 1000 times more natural than that synthetic piece of sh*t from Armaf.
Will always be in my collection. LOVE IT.
alexadm – :
Best men perfume so far….LOVE IT! very long lasting
shtirlic – :
Beauty. Signature worthy, but…only if you can afford it. I have more important things to buy though. To its defence, there are other expensive frags, that dont receive so much hate.? As a scent on its own it developes nicely, is well balanced and smells natural.
Borderland – :
Upon initial spray this gave me a retro vibe. It’s not a summer fragrance because it’s too woody and vanilla but it can be pulled off. No woman is going to rip your shirt off for this. It’s not a compliment monster (no such thing) the cheaper alternatives are all better than this. Hype hype hype. I owned it when it started blowing up and guess what, I sold it to get my money back. Also I kept it for a while before selling. Overpriced and overhyped. Save your money trust me
enquisy – :
Well what can i say it speaks for itself Aventus is one of a kind so glad i have a bottle of this is a gem sent from the creed gods, the opening is just so clean and well blended the fruity notes are really nice and pleasant the smokey note is lingering in the background but yet not to strong either i don’t mind that, definitely gets great compliments and projection is pretty solid also i love the way it smells and i love the way creed made scent, lasting power is great i get over 8 hours on my skin with scent which is more than enough for me with Aventus
(Projection) 10
(Silage) 9
(Longevity) 10
Overall i’m giving this gem a 10
sfylhtq – :
What else can be said about Aventus? This is a masterpiece, and that is not an accolade I use liberally. Gorgeous pineapple complimented with birch and balanced with a hint of vanilla and rose. The result? A mouth-watering aroma that attracts the curiosity of everyone around you.
Schulc – :
Don’t get all the hype around this. It just smells alright to me, and alright isn’t good enough for me to part with hundreds of dollars. My wife prefers the Zara clone over this, so I’ll save my money and please us both.
ScuScuddy – :
What can be said about this one that hasnt already been said. It is insanely hyped up in the frag community, and I think it deserves it.
Extremely unique combo of notes, very masculine, very versatile, very high quality, great performance, and extremely high compliment factor. What more could you ask for in a cologne? I guess if you could only have one cologne, this has it all.
Dont know if its a combo of the juice itself with the name and reputation, but you feel very alpha/confident going thru the day or night with it on.
Deserves its status as a masterpiece.
adderaAdjurdy – :
In the avenue of niche perfumery, this is a safe buy for most men. The fragrance is fresh with lovely musky dry-down notes, long-lasting, good performance and sillage.
Although I have come across many discussions on the variations in notes among batches, the latest is not anything to complain about.
Price may seem high, but then again – you know this is in to niche territory and they don’t come cheap! Especially for a brand that has a long history.
Keterina – :
Newer 100ml bottle.
Great scent. Performance is good but I think older batches seem to be better.
One knock on this is it’s own success. I just smell clones of this although you can tell they are clones but just what this is going for $410 retail is too much for the newer smaller bottle and weaker fragrance.
DashaChe – :
I was fortunate enough to get the Creed Aventus Batch 17Y01 “Pineapple Bomb”. This stuff blew me away. When I sprayed it on it was like getting hit in the face by a 5 gallon bucket of chopped pineapples. Then it slowly dried down to a slight smokey accord, with the fruitiness still present. I sprayed this on 2 hours ago and waffs of it are still hitting me in the face, in a good way. I heard Aventus batches are very inconsistent and have their own subtle nuances that make them special. This one is definitely for the smokey pineapple lover. I may have to go back and get a larger decant of this before it’s all gone.
lionsb – :
New batch seem to be weaker. Performance only around 6 hours compared to +12 for the older ones.
Zara Vibrant Leather is a clone that is very very close to the newer batches of CA. And its only around 20 euros.
wko704speagoessenda – :
100 ml new batches have weaker performance than old ones , i had a 120 ml of 2014 bacth , it lasted 12 hours + on me , , 2018 batch give you a 6-8 hours and project for 1 hour, so who will buy a perfume that cost 400 $ with average performance
eqi752Unlogrere – :
The question is not “Is it worth the money?” but rather “Am I still thinking of Aventus after every other fragrance I buy?”
If the answer to that is yes, just get a bottle. The clones will never do it for you. You need to scratch that itch. The real itch.
SCRATCH THAT ITCH LIKE A LABRADOR MY BOY!!
ATROLYPROSY – :
I can’t identify notes in perfumes other than the most obvious ones such as vanilla or lemon. That said, my brother walked in the house the other day stirring a breeze which brought his fragrance to my nose.
I said, “my God man, what have you got on?”
He said, “Aventus by Creed.”
Let me tell you that THIS stuff is gorgeous – just plain class and mystery in a bottle. A real man’s cologne. It should be reserved for men who are comfortable in their own skins.
poetlestythit – :
Amazing Fragrance!!
Truth be told, it’s more amazing to me than it has ever seemed to be for anyone around me.
2/3rds through the 8.4oz flacon & never received a single unsolicited compliment.
Everyone seems to like it if/when asked, but never had anyone mention it on their own.
This is including the multiple sample decants I’ve owned.
Current flacon batch #17Y02 smells amazing, strong for about 2 hours lingers close to the skin for about 4.
10/10 scent either way.
ebk139Unlogrere – :
The champion. The saviour. Creed Aventus! Nothing I can say that hasn’t already been said. The opening is flawless and the dry down gets even better. Huge amounts of compliments wearing this and the price totally justifies the scent. I bought Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man after reading how similar it is and it totally is! I’d say it’s 85% Creed so to the untrained nose, it may just smell like Creed but I think the money is on that last 15%, that’s where Creed’s quality is shown. Unfortunately I don’t wear this too often due to the price tag. I have the 2015 batch
neville981 – :
For the longest time I’d been seeking substitutes for some of my favorite but expensive fragrances. And there’s a psychology to being in that position. You don’t want to spend resources that would be more responsibly used for your loved ones needs. And though you love fragrances you don’t want to be selfishly indulgent. So, you F around with the Dua’s and the pineapple vintages and the arabic knock off artists. And so on. And you make the best of it in your head, thinking that people who spend money on this type of thing are just buying the brand recognition value.
But then you’re also getting your shit together. And all of a sudden. This price tag isn’t something so outlandish.
And maybe you end up like me. Right back to the point where you knew it at first sniff. You can’t fake the rarest of whale puke balls, and perfect high fidelity pineapple and so on. I had a sample of this so long ago. And it sang off my skin magically. Powerfully. And people around me loved it.
And now I got me a bottle. And you know what else. I wasted a lot of little low rent purchases trying to smell like this. Should’ve just skipped all the BS and just had less bottles.
That’s where I’m at now with this. A well curated fragrance wardrobe of pure loves. No more bottles in my collection that are just king of meh… pretty cool, since I can’t have the high quality stuff.
So… anyway. Just responding to the psychological processes around high quality high price fragrances.
I love this one. It belongs in my collection. As long as I can afford it. And if not. I just won’t bother with the imitations.
Encre noir is a 30$ bottle. I’ll just wear that. Love it. And luxuriate in it’s authentic beauty. What I will never do again is buy a bunch of low grade crap to approximate the real beauty and end up spending the same amount and not end up wearing any of them.
asdzxcv – :
This fragrance really does live up to its hype.. i received a sample delivered to work and just sprayed one mist onto the back of my hand (just to test smell and longevity) and as i approached a co worker about 5 minutes later, i was still about 5 metres away then, BANG!! Instant compliment.. i received them all afternoon from this person.. mine didnt have a strong pineapple smell i felt just a very subtle one on the top note but then fades into awesomeness..
mini-soul – :
This is so well made! The first time I wore it out a guy came up to me and started smelling me and told me, “Whatever it is you are wearing is just amazing. Uh-mazing!!”
It has beautiful balance. It is spicy, fruity, musky, hot, cold and clean all in one and it lasts a long time on my skin. It is so much fun to wear and it is definitely of the highest quality. It is expensive for a reason and you can tell immediately.
jvxmqybazez – :
I remember the price was less than 200$ only a year go, youre just paying the extra money for the popularity of this one which is ironic since you dont want to smell like anyone else lol.
rifat164 – :
@genny17 good for you (and your husband). If you love it so much and can afford, why do you care? Or nobody can hate a scented water you love?
And yes, I don’t have the money to afford Aventus… unfortunately most people in the world can afford to have toilets or clean water, so, I judge myself as a privileged person cause I can have a couple of US$40 scents.
But the fact I can’t afford, does not mean I can’t dislike it (actually, I like Aventus). I hate several cheap fragrances too.
IMHO, no fragrance worth US$ 300, but it’s just my opinion…
maximusss_25rus – :
It’s just a very overpriced smokey pineapple. Very well done, but is just mad to pay for it.
In Brazil (which has not a famous clone house like Armaf, but instead, several small “garage” clone factories) is possible to find 95% similar smell and longevity by less than 1/10th of original price.
As @sharpLess say, most “normal” people ever smelled even a clone, and certainly, can’t tell the difference.
It could be argued that is worthy if at least was something “exclusive” but with that many clones around the world, is a waste of money. It’s like to buy a pricey “Supreme” white t-shirt with a red rectangle written “Supreme” for some hundred dollars, to find in the street corner someone in a pickup truck selling the same thing for pennies. The only bigger waste of money than Aventus is GIT.
Creed is the Supreme of fragrances. Hype fueled.
taras14 – :
It’s a good fragrance. It’s just become too played out, like radio killing a great song. I think people just like saying the name, and seeing peoples sticker shock face at hearing the price. It was my gateway drug into niche fragrances, but it is very very very far down the list on the best smelling niche fragrances that I have tested. I don’t see myself buying anymore of it in the future, it to me is very mediocre compared to Roja Dove’s and MFK’s fragrances. At that price point I expect better, and Dove and MFK definitely deliver better.
Sweeptith – :
If you want to know this I can tell you:
Overhyped?: NO
Overpriced?:Yes…BUT… If you have a pearl like this in your hand and don’t want it to go mainstream you give it on this price (will I buy it on this price?: No! :D) THAT’s it. I want to write a proper review of this frag’ but it deserves a very profound interpretation. “Unique”…”well done” and such phrases are not worthy here…and definitely not because of the price…as soon as I can put myself together i’ll explain why this perfume is rated so high…there can not be a satisfactory opinion for everyone though…and that is a mark of a good perfume 😉
Malopuk – :
I love the smell, but dislike the price. But if you’re a collector like me, Aventus is a “must” in your collection just like Dior Sauvage, Bleu De Chanel, and Chanel Allure Sport Eau Extrme. If you want to experience Aventus, Armaf is a good clone. I just can’t stand the harsh smokey scent in the first 20 min. after that it’s all good. But Aventus will be Aventus and as of now no clones hasn’t dethroned it yet of its status as “The King”.
ford058 – :
Eventually, it all comes down to the emotional impact. I find Aventus to be a decent fragrance, the construction is interesting, longevity is good, but it fails to excite me and there’s nothing I can do about it. The smoky and herbal notes are good, but there’s something in the sourness of the pineapple that comes across a bit skanky, at least on my skin. I remember having a similar impression with Montblanc Legend. If you’re fond of pineapple scents, then by all means, get Aventus. If money is no issue, get Aventus and do what you will with it. Otherwise, maybe get a decant first. It’s no magic potion, just a quality fragrance that’s worth exactly how much you’re willing to pay for it. For me, it is overpriced.
motiv – :
I just got my first bottle of Aventus, from my LOVELY, and BEAUTIFUL girlfriend. It is batch 18B11, anybody else with that batch?
Okay, this is a BEAUTIFUL scent. The opening is amazing, pineapple, bright, and with lots of heavy undertone. I can honestly say that the performance on this is BEAST, as I can spray it on me and smell it over 12 hours later, and it’s strong still even after that amount of time. I’ll update later as I get to familiarize myself with this, but so far, it’s a great get.
UPDATE: From my experience with this particular batch(18B11), is that it’s extremely well balanced and powerful to boot. Maybe a little bit tipping towards the fruitier side, but overall everything hits well. The delicious pineapple opening, the smoky cool down, to the woodsy finish(noticeable trace of Vanilla surprisingly).
The performance is pure beast, as I’m still getting compliments on it 10 hours later. Sillage is as good as I’ve had, as I sometimes catch it myself when I walk back from where I came. The projection is also very good as I’ve had people from across about a 15-20ft room smell it immediately, of course that settles down to bubble status after about 3-4 hours.
Compliment factor is VERY high. I get one or two each and every time I wear this. The fact that others call this their most complimented fragrance is as true as it gets. It just smells great, and it’s hard not to notice due to it’s potency.
THE PERFECT Men’s fragrance in my opinion. All year round versatility, beautiful masculine scent, performance beast, and most of all unique. Most people aren’t nuanced on fragrances, like at all. So trust me, unless you live in a community that for whatever reason is into fragrances, you’re going to get noticed, and questions will be asked. Get it, forget the clones. It’s as they say, you want to smell like Aventus, THEN GO GET AVENTUS.
Truly the Crown Jewel of my fragrance collection, all in thanks to a certain beautiful friend of mine……
LOVE YOU NAB
Irinka – :
I have to say that yes this scent is revolutionary its the scent that connects poeple to have a more appreciation towards niche fragrances. Im sure there are still some countries which this scent hasnt invaded fully so if you happen to live on these places and you have this one or even just a clone of it you might be able to start a cult following lol! Now with regards to the places where it is very well known i believe it is still popular but due to the increasing number of affordable clones people will outgrew this one in a couple of years. But just like the past classics who have proven their worth it will have its place in the pantheon of legendary scents of all time.
Now down to getting compliments as far as my experience is concern the best way to get a constant compliment on this one is through teasing the smeller meaning the person who might smell you should only get whiffs of the scent it should moderately/softly linger rather than leaving a scent trail or relying on its projection or for It to constantly radiate in you if you were able to only tease people of its smell it greatly reduces the chances of them getting fatigued with the scent hence making their experience of smelling this from you more special and memorable.
I dont recommend it as an everyday scent its a special scent best worn to impress people on special occassions or events..
stlev01 – :
This is a masterpiece! Plain and simple! Clones capture the essence of aventus buy they do not replicate the journey of creeds number 1 scent! The natural ingredients used shine through in comparison to the harshness of the copycats. Compliment king also. A complete stranger approached me in a supermarket and said ‘oh my god it’s you who smells so amazing’. Women fall in love with this fragrance and will remember you for it!
Surgutskiy – :
So much hype and so many fanboys. I was excited to try this at my local boutique retailer. I sprayed Aventus on the sample card and also on my wrist. I must say, I was disappointed.
Don’t get me wrong, this is a quality perfume with quality ingredients. However to my nose, the scent is very average and some what dated. Fruity opening with a woody dry down. Probably suited for someone in their late 30’s/40’s. Longevity is very good, I could still smell it on my wrist 12+ hours later.
The price astronomical so don’t blind buy this, try before you buy.
FisH86 – :
Smells like heaven on earth! <3 Everything is balanced and Aventus has high quality ingredients. 🙂 Smell is very sophisticated and sexy. Love all the notes so much 😉 Aventus also gives extra confidence and has good effect on mood. And personally I have never smelled anything similar. Clones for example CDNIM are not sold in my country.
Smell 11/10
Uniqueness 10/10
Longevity 9/10
ps1onez – :
there is a good clone with 4 euros called: “giardino dei sensi legni esotici”.
jeck22 – :
This perfume is to me a fruity dark smoky scent with a base on a very ripe pineapple that is somewhat sweet but in a non-offensive way. On my skin, it lasts around 12 hours, this may vary from person to person.
The initial opening is 90% base on a very ripe pineapple that just tones down and goes on the 2nd or even 3rd note after 5 minutes. This is when the smoky fruity notes start to develop along with ambergris and they will be present throughout the longevity.
It’s the first perfume I found that it’s fruity but very pleasant sweet due to the smoky accords.
It’s a scent for every occasion and any season, something that is very rare.
Side notes: starting from a sample, I went and bought the 250ml bottle which it seems it has the second best value after the 500ml. A lot of Creed perfumes have something in common something special on the base, it’s the case also with Bois Du Portugal which I also own.
Expensive? Yes, but I think it’s totally worth it.
Clones? No thanks, the original is special. In the end, you’ll have 50 frags from which you love a couple, so choose wisely.
VVolkoff – :
Dam this is turning into a school playground lol. Come on people be calm be cool everybody relax we are all fragrance lovers. No point going to war like Napoleon lol in the Aventus bottle. For me personally the true legendary fragrances are Dior Oud Isphan and the ultimate king Vintage M7 by Yves Saint Laurent.
mity0306 – :
All you frag snobs that say “everyone ” is wearing this make me laugh! No one I know has even heard of it. Do you even realize the % the fragrance community makes up in the population? Not alot. This gem manages what most of today’s boring aquatic freshies can’t. Longevity, sillage and and versatility. Woody, fruity, smoky sexiness in a bottle. Great stuff. A masterpiece and a classic to be no doubt.

Aventus scent is kings, I have a bottle and a 10ml sample.
I have tried most of the clones and they just dont make it.
My complaint with Aventus is performance 2 hours and its gone completely not even a skin scent.
Scent 10/10 or more.
performance 4/10 at most
Orim – :
wow this one was great
Daden – :
Basic AF. Sorry not sorry, this is overrated like no other. Like it smells okay. Its not a bad nasty smell, but seeing that this 1 bottle cost the same as nearly half of my collection.
Its smokey pineapple and birch wood. Zero “wow” factor. All these people gassing this fragrance up are just trying to justify spending the ridiculous amount of money this brand cost.
I don’t recommend a blind buy, cause once you smell it you’ll be like not worth the price to smell basic.
larisa231182 – :
Love it or hate it !
Aventus is undoubtedly the kings fragrance and i totally love it.
The problem is its been way far copied and cloned now that it dosent smell that uniqe.
I got this bottle just to make my collection more spectacular and complete.
But honestly its not most appealing fragrance. Good for mature person or maybe old school.
My lady dislikes aventus and so is the same reaction with many ladies .
I would pick dior sauvage over aventus.

dim00n95 – :
I don’t know if this is because of the batch or the warm weather but on my skin Aventus is very Patouchli forward from the get-go with black currant leaves and oak moss behind it….
It’s nice but I don’t get anything beyond Patchouli, Blackcurrant Leaves, and Oakmoss.
Longevity on my skin is maybe 5 or 6 hours in decent weather.
llj823Diobtetty – :
After giving this a proper amount of time wearing along with CDNI, and other various other clones I have to agree with the raves about this in the fragrance community. I received a 50 ml decant from a respected member of the fragrant community. Batch number 17T01 and this is the only batch I’ve tried. I’ve had this fragrance for about 7 months now and it is definitely awesome. CDNI is close and very very good for a clone and has grown on me more and more. But I still highly recommend Aventus. This is just different. Hard to explain. Quality, scent, feeling etc… in my opinion. CDNI is an awesome contender and is a deffinate blind buy worthy purchase in my opinion. The best way I can give an example is my love for AHS vs. VPH. Very similar but yet very different. Anyways, haters will always hate just to hate.
FYI Gallagher fragrances launched Fineapple and it’s gorgeous. My next purchase. If you like a true Aventus quality vibe but also different I recommend checking it out.
