Emperor Parfums Vintage 2018 Eau de Parfum

I advise caution, have ordered several testers of all Aventus clones of Parfums Vintage and found like many Emperor best, have then ordered 50ml and also an Oud Wood clone which is also available on their website. Emperor was great and Oud Wood contrary to the reviews here, a really bad dupe that smelled completely different. I was thrilled with Emperor though, as it was really on par with the best version of the original Aventus, as was the tester. After a short time, however, I found that the shelf life was surprisingly poor compared to the tester. One could him after 1-2 hours already garnicht more, also others could nevertheless I had several sprays on my forearm, no longer perceive anything. So I thought, maybe a problem of 50ml bottles, because I read different statements about the shelf life. So I directly reordered the 100ml bottle, this was not only similarly bad in the durability, this smelled even significantly different and was decidedly further away from Aventus than, for example, the 30€ Club de Nuit. I have then written directly to Parfums Vintage, whether there was possibly something wrong bottled, or they have made a mistake when mixing, perhaps have another explanation for it. I got like many before me, no answer. The call up a proud price for their perfumes and in my experience, was only the tester of excellent durability. Whether that is specifically so, or I just had bad luck, I can not say, but I will definitely not order a third time there and expressly warn of the strong fluctuations that were delivered to me. For 2 bottles that were not worth the money, I could have bought an original. From my point of view, Club de Nuit is the one that comes closest, in the air hardly distinguishable, in direct comparison I succeed. Too bad, because the tester of Emperor, I could not distinguish from the original, or would even hold emperor rather for the original, he had this typical vibe, which also has the limited edition of Club de Nuit in lighter form. Unfortunately though, the limited edition is overall weaker in sillage than the EDT and in drydown it is also inferior to the cheaper EDT. Getting back to Emperor...I feel bounced and ripped off. The bottles and sprayers from Parfums Vintage are of the cheapest quality, which I could have lived with if the contents had matched the tester, but so only further underscores my image of audacity.
