Usual top scent from Creed, but the performance is abysmal
Scent composition wise, I still think that Creed is top of the game, no doubt. Unfortunately, there is an inverse correlation with its performance.

Today I went to London's Covent Garden Creed shop. I sprayed Absolu and Green Irish Tweed on skin. After 3 hours both of them turned to faint skin scents. Given the price, absolu-tely unacceptable.

If you like this DNA, try Afnan's Collector Edition. The scent is very similar (but a bit fresher) with at least twice the performance. You won't be disappointed.

Should have called it Aventus Elixir
Lol it's mostly a clone of sauvage elixir, just with pineapple instead of grapefruit at the top and minus the licorice.

The weak disguise of calling this an absolu instead of an elixir is almost comical.

It's not even smelling higher quality (maybe a tiny bit) and it's not even as artistic / daring as the spices are way toned down and more "safe".

It's maybe a bit less screechy, but I think it's kinda part of the charm of sauvage elixir and comes with the brutal performance. Here the performance is more like average.

Fore me the choice is quite easy. I clearly prefer sauvage elixir.

Better than the OG
It starts with VERY juicy fruits. Even more than Aventus. The pineapple is still there and is very prominent. It is also much sweeter rather than fresh like the OG. The opening is a perfection. I could smell it all the time.
After a few minutes, maybe 10-15 you can smell more and more of the spices but fruits are still very much there. The sweetness is just about perfect. The longer time goes by the more woodier/spicy it gets and fruits fade away.

At this time I even consider it an overall better scent than Aventus. Lately I wear it much more often.
The performance is quite good. Not a killer in any way, but with 8-10 sprays you will smell it on yourself for 8 or more hours. On clothes even a couple of days after.

About the price... I live in EU so I'm gonna speak about it as it is here. You can get it for around 315$ with the newsletter code directly from Creed. It is not even close to the 500$ or 550$ I heard people in the US has to pay. The price is high but you get very nice, well blended, for me even outstanding smell in a nice packaging. It is also a limited edition which probably makes it more pricy just because of that.

I bought 2 bottles and consider buying third just because it smell SOO GOOD.
Try it if you can guys.

My Favorite
This is, as of now, my favorite fragrance of all time. I had wanted this from the very moment it was released, and secured a deal on Aura Fragrance for $220 off retail. When I finally opened it after anticipation, in an unboxing documented on my YouTube channel, I truly was amazed. The all black bottle, signature box with seals, ridges and private-line-stripe, and every detail of the presentation was classy and expensive-looking. The smell was as expected, a nice twist on the original aventus, with a husky hit of spices borrowed from another one of my favorites: Dior Sauvage Elixir. Extremely thankful to god that I was able to obtain this, genuinely incredible. May not have 100% creativity or too superb price value, but the smell and experience truly makes up for it. 10/10.

Expensive Hype Beast
The opening has freshness from the citruses like Grapefruit and Bergamot, Ginger adds zest and Pepper notes to awaken your olfactory senses. The opening reminds you of OG Aventus, and quickly transitions into the next stage within a couple of minutes.

The famous Aventus Pineapple note lingers in the background as we enter the middle phase and is not as prominent of a fruit note as found in the OG Aventus and it's flanker cologne.

The patchouli notes add to the darkness/earthiness, while Pepper and Cinnamon add to masculine spiciness.

The dry down is often compared to Sauvage Elixir due to notable similarities. The notes of Cardamom, Ginger, Cinnamon, and Grapefruit are the notes that cause the similarities, but the Sauvage Elixir dry down is significantly more spicier, heavier, and Middle Eastern perfumery-like than the Aventus Absolo. There are similarities, but they aren't the same. This Sauvage Elixer-like phase lasts for a couple of hours.

Like any masterfully blended fragrance the top, mid, and base notes bleed into each other with dry down being heavily supported by Pepper, darkness from patchouli, Ambroxn and musks, and woody vetiver.

This scent is significantly different from the OG Aventus and Aventus Cologne. It's been incredibly hyped by perfume influencers, and while it may not suit my personal preferences ( I don't enjoy Sauvage Elixer), others may find it appealing. If you have the means, have this in your collection.

So much money for so little. Riding on Aventus' hype train won't pay off, Sprayed in a mall it was gone before I left the building.

Best Aventus in my opinion. Mature, thicker, more refined and sophisticated. Projection, silage and performance is excellent.

This was a bit of a disappointment for me, it's not strong, it's very similar to the cheap Club De Nuit Intens...

Nothing to hate, It’s just another easy to like Aventus. More smoky citrus opening that turns into slightly sweet Aventus. I like it so far.

Better quality than the standard Aventus. Feels more fresh and clean with the same DNA. Actually performance is rather decent on my skin.

An Aventus-like DNA (closer to Cedrat Boise) opposed by fresh-spicy-woody masculine aromatic (Sauvage Elixir/Papilefiko) aspects. Just meh.

Delicious opening of citrus fruits. The pineapple in the dry down is heavenly. Projection and longevity is rather poor. Not worth the cost.
