Aventus Creed 2010

Today times Real Talk about a fragrance that now comes away far too bad. My first Niechenduft and I always come back to him. Many alternatives and dupes have come to me in the meantime under the nose. Among them Orion, Explorer etc and even some that tried to pass themselves off as original. But all these fragrances don't have much in common with Aventus. The secret to the magic of this fragrance is probably the selection of natural smelling ingredients and their mixing ratio. The more recent batches take a rather fresher approach here, focusing on lemon in the top note. The fragrance is even more transparent than its predecessors. The fresh character unfortunately has a negative impact on the durability. Not that it is no longer noticeable, but the new batches are no longer as room-filling as they were back then and it also lasts, in quotes, only 5-6 hours. But if you take the level of most summer fragrances as a benchmark, the current batches don't do badly either. People who just want a fragrance that goes down well won't go wrong with it. It has less potential to be a signature scent because of its popularity, but it doesn't have to be. I for one still like to wear it today, if only because I associate events of that time with it. Even if many don't recommend buying it out of disappointment, the scent is worth a try especially for people who haven't been spoiled by old versions. ✌️
