Reads like salad dressing - but smells great!

After many statements once again a review! Currently, the Aventus mania has gripped me.

Since I'm really dissatisfied with the current versions of creed, it went off to the rabbit hole ...

What can the lion? Only roar?
From the ingredients you certainly do not get smart, so many herbs, plants, etc. The first spray reveals the secret!

In the opening gibts here no fruit. One knows otherwise pineapple or the like, but here we start very citrusy and herbaceous. This works immensely refreshing.

In general, Esencia is not really sweet and very adult. No synthetics as with other alternatives.

I could compare it to an aventus from 2017 and the birch note is nicely replicated here. In my humble nose I would certify similarity to 89%

The Leo is a bit peculiar after all, so I felt it was almost too herbaceous for me and had a "ham" note. However, this association only came about in comparison with much sweeter fragrances and is probably more of an irritation.

So we have a citrusy herbaceous opening. Spice comes right in and creates an adult feeling. No fragrance for teens. After 1-2 hours we have a great and very aventus similar sillage developed. Sophisticated and masculine. No need to describe individual fragrance notes here. The mixture is super - nothing that disturbs.

Of all the alternatives I have tested, the lion is the adult.

He stood in the test against:
Supremacy Not Only Intense
Perfumer's Choice NÂș9 Victor
Black Creek
All from the Club de Nuit Intense Man Eau de Toilette range.

Finally moved in: Esencia and Supremacy!

So you have a green adult Aventus lion and the fruity smoky from the Orient. As always: try yourselves out :)
