this is my absolute favorite fragrance there are some dupes out there, but none are as good as this.
My woman loves smelling it on me says she just can't get enough Guys at work have stopped me to tell me that i smell good and for them to say something positive is a big deal so it must smell really good to them too,
when i wear this i do feel more confident you can dress it up or down wear it when it's 0 to 80 might save it for nights in the really hot summer I'm sure it will be really strong then,
it doesn't project a lot, but they will smell you well after you leave the area and a good breaze will carry your scent a long way.
my only downside to this is the ridiculous price like 200 max not 500+
This is a masterpiece! Opens with that signature smoky pineapple but this time with added spices, makes it more masculine and darker! It is an amazing fragrance and works super well! definitely the best from creed along with the OG Aventus
L'une de mes amies m'a laissé goûter celui-ci l'autre jour. C'est sans aucun doute mon parfum préféré de Creed. Il prend l'aventus et lui donne une tournure plus sombre et plus chaude. Si vous aimez Creed Aventus, vous aimerez certainement ce parfum.
Une version très épicée de l'ADN d'Aventus, un peu comme si l'on superposait spicebomb et aventus. Les épices sentent un peu l'Elixir Sauvage. Grande longévité et projection sur. ma peau ! Super cher cependant.
J'aime ce parfum mais je ne l'adore pas. La longévité est solide pour moi (6 heures environ), mais ne vaut pas le battage médiatique ni le prix. Je pense qu'il y a de meilleurs parfums épicés pour le prix/la valeur. Dans l'ensemble, 3,5/5 pour moi.
Je veux dire, quel est l'intérêt s'il n'y a pas de projet. Une bonne odeur... que vous êtes le seul à sentir. Elle ne dure pas très longtemps non plus.
Absolu Aventus est une sortie intéressante, car elle montre à quel point les gens sont prêts à payer un prix stupide pour un produit de qualité inférieure et paresseux. Ne vous méprenez pas, la senteur elle-même est agréable, mais l'ensemble du produit n'est qu'une déclaration d'intention. Il contient des éléments de l'aventus original, principalement la bergamote et le cassis juteux, mais il manque l'ananas et le bouleau emblématiques. À la place, on trouve du pamplemousse, du gingembre et de la cannelle, ce qui donne au parfum une direction plus chaude et plus épicée, tout en conservant une fraîcheur significative. Comme je l'ai dit, ce parfum sent vraiment bon, mais pour être honnête, je préférerais de loin porter l'aventus original. Ce parfum ressemble beaucoup à une sortie paresseuse, réalisée en une journée sans trop de réflexion, ce qui est très typique de Creed.
D'ya know what??? I'm really glad that Cedrat Boise is NOT even featured in the first few 'reminds me of's' on this page because I'd heard some folk saying that this new Aventus was similar to that abomination but gladly however un called for, stupid, cashgrabby, outragously priced, appealing to people I feel I'm way above (I'm kidding Aventus fanboys!!!), and redundant as I feel this release might be....it's not the olfactory equivilent of the child from the Omen AKA Cedrat boise. A fragrance which starts out inoffensive and basically an Aventus-ish riff but soon becomes oppressively horrid. Anyway enough about what it's not...what IS IT? Well...a bit disappointing. However, saying that would imply that I perhaps had high expectations for Absolu Aventus, I didn't. What it delivers is a slightly rejigged Aventus formula and I quite like Aventus. Despite having sold my old 'Vinatge' lol bottle (because someone told me what it was worth!!!) I do quite like the fragrance and as a cultural and industry icon I can't fail to recognise it as an epoch shattering, golliath of a fragrance. But the facts are thus...This has a really nice fruity opening, possibly more complex and less turbo pineapple accord than I recall from the original (whichever BATCH it was?) which is all nice and such but the base feels more grown up, more cuddly and luxurous maybe, this is a parfum type version afterall and it defintely feels that way. However, the reason I liked Aventus in the first place was for all it's knockabout, hollowness it had oomfph in the form of a hard, almost cheap, relentless, woody accord that feels muted and a bit more rounded in this version. Where's the really smoky element of cedar and birch which made Aventus truly pop when it first appeared on shelves? It's just not quite there for me, although this is a worthy representation of what I think the spirit of Aventus is about. It still captures that, I'm not saying it misses the mark and I'm sure collectors will just want it for the sake of it, even if they feel underwhelmed by the smell. For £325 for 75ml I personally wouldn't bother, but I'm not the target of this one, by any means. Absolu has been informed by the world around it, a world it helped to create a decade or more ago. It's a bit like when a band pioneers a certain type of music and then you listen to their new record 20 years later and feel as though they now feel obliged to be more like the bands which came after them, who were actually inspired by them in the first place, in this craxy feedback loop. Feels a little tired because ultimately they haven't really moved on. I suppose that's how music, fashion and ultimately all art works, so it's not a complaint merely an observation and the motives to continue Aventus are clear, it's a big juggernaut of a thing with money and expectation and affection from it's fanbase. Update 06/02/24 So I've worn this again today and feel as though I need to comment yet again on it, because the practicalities of wearing it are evident, it's a very enjoyable thing. I'm having a blast, all is well with the world and no doubt folks who catch a whiff of me are impressed with how nice I smell and this is not to be underestimated, Aventus didn't dominate and arguably change the fragrance world forever, without good reason. I think my review above was just reiterating that no flanker following in it's wake could ever do the same. To state the bloody obvious! but what it might/will do is make a few quid for Creed. That's a given. So I don't know whether I noticed this (I can't even be bothered skimming through my own review above haha) but the notes here don't list birch and that's wholly accurate because I don't smell that characteristic I remember so vividly from the original release of Aventus way back. It's not smoky or birchy because it's deliberately not supposed to be! I'm here for the fruitiness and added freshness and even the woods conjuring a bit of something near that, but it's nowhere near as ballsy as the original, this tweaked formula offers something slightly different, I can't comment as to whether that's a good or bad thing. This smells good.
Smells good, a lot like Aventus, but the longevity is abysmal. To me, this smells absolutely nothing like Sauvage Elixir.
