It's just a shame....

My relationship with Creed's Aventus could be likened to a visit to the hyped, new burger joint.

The fancy burger place that opens around the corner and is massively hyped. Every second person posts in their Instagram story that they've been there and are also one of the "lucky" ones to have tried the oh-so-good burger.

With me it was like this: I have wished for the fragrance for a very long time and then got it as a gift from my friends for my birthday. I was on cloud 7, finally Aventus. THE original Aventus. But the disillusionment came very quickly: WO. IS. THE. DURABILITY?! Sure, the fragrance DNA itself is absolute madness. Simply magical.

But when 4 friends get together to give me an expensive niche fragrance, you expect 8 hours of shelf life at the minimum. With me, the maximum lasts 1-2 hours.

Back to the burger joint association. It feels like you've finally visited that burger joint yourself and then it's just a small, thin patty with some lettuce between two buns and with what feels like 2-3 drops of sauce. You feel full for exactly 15 minutes and the magic is over - I'm sure this burger would have been better at home.

Yes, I am indeed a bit frustrated.
