PUDI wants to know
Or better: PUDI simply had to know! What does this fragrance, which is praised by the whole world, smell like? But first of all... I became aware of this scent through YouTube and crazy Jeremy. Other perfume-YouTubers could hardly find enough words of praise for him and even a well-known streamer of video games could not hide his enthusiasm. It was also the first time I came into contact with the term niche fragrance. Niche scent? Interesting, I thought. This Aventus must be something really great! The bottle reminds one of cheap aftershave, but the contents must be all the better. Well, well... ;)
Anyway, my interest was aroused and so I did some research. What exactly are niche fragrances? Finding: Basically they are intended for a rather small clientele and not a mass product (therefore niche), often they are very expensive, mostly of high quality and logically not available everywhere. Wow! I had to get to know this world better and Aventus was to be my first trip there. I mentally prepared myself in advance that it might be difficult to get my hands on this scent, because as I had learned, niche scents are not available everywhere, or even rare. My amazement was correspondingly great when I was asked about Aventus in the first mainstream fragrance store and got the answer "sure, we do! O.0
I had expected this now niche! ;D
The lady headed for a shelf, but did not take the fragrance from it, but opened a drawer under the shelf. "Ohooh, locked it up? How noble!" The expectations rose and rose. When the ladies sprayed some Aventus on a piece of paper, she looked at me as if she wanted to say "you can't afford it anyway", whereupon I countered with the thought "shut your cheeks, I don't want to be your friend either". Good that I am not dependent on the goodwill of others, because now, despite the unpleasant atmosphere, I could calmly test the fragrance I had heard so much about. Well, what can I say... The first thing that went through my mind was nothing less than a huge question mark. That's him? The famous Aventus?? I was expecting an "Ooooh!", but it turned out to be an "Och!" He's not bad, but he's not what I expected. Fruity/fresh? Yes! High-quality? Yeah, sort of. But it was by no means the fireworks we expected. Luckily, I didn't let this sobering experience discourage me, because shortly afterwards I got to know exactly the world of niche fragrances that I had imagined as so beautiful in my imagination and realized how wonderful perfumes can smell. Aventus is booked as an experience and part of my fragrance journey, but will not make it into my collection.
