The hatred that this fragrance faces surprises me, because the scent itself is actually great. If Lattafa were to release it, YouTubers would be singing its praises again, and everyone would go wild. And no, I am not a Rammstein fan. However, there is a very important but, more on that shortly.
The fragrance starts off fresh with the "Aventus DNA," although I must immediately agree with my predecessor here. This is actually more of a
Club de Nuit Intense Man Eau de Toilette clone. The opening is a bit brighter, a bit fresher, a bit greener, and it doesn't have that harsh chemical opening where you have to wait 20 minutes like with "Club de Nuit Intense Man (Eau de Toilette) | Armaf." So it even does that better than "Club de Nuit Intense Man (Eau de Toilette) | Armaf." I don't want to get into the small details about which one smells better after 20 minutes and why, because that's a matter of taste and not so important here. Because now comes the big BUT.
Because the good CDNI brother smells really good, BUT, it is so linear that it sometimes comes off as boring. You really have to achieve that with this "Aventus" DNA. The
Club de Nuit Intense Man Eau de Toilette is much more mysterious, it piques your curiosity, you bump into it, people want to know: What is that? It radiates and has energy. Here, after just 30 minutes, it’s more like "Yeah, pretty cool." But nothing more than that. I simply don't expect that from a scandalous, groupie-banging rock band. Where is the fire, where is the special something when you venture into the Aventus corner and want to stir things up? Or did the legendary, flamboyant Rammstein rock gang want to push the tame, boring Aventus onto the market? Everything is very strange. And as if that weren't enough, it even costs €39.99 on sale and has a terrible longevity/sillage, which pulls this otherwise beautiful scent into complete disaster. After about an hour, you can hardly smell anything from about 10 cm away. And you get this scent when you're in the mood for action. I wanted to wreak havoc in a hotel room, I wanted a show like Rammstein puts on. And what I got was useless crap. So the scent itself is really good, but somehow they really messed it up here, and in my opinion, you can tell that this is a mass-produced product that no one spent more than 5 minutes on. With the motto: "Yeah, just mix something together in the Aventus corner," and the next day at the first test: "Yeah, smells great, let’s take it." Mass production and off to the drugstores with it, the fans will buy it anyway. I find that very weak. No perfumer can be proud of that. The H/S isn't even enough for a decent unit at the gym. And that should have been noticed by everyone and should never have hit the market. For €12, okay, I would have kept quiet. For €39.99 (on sale), take it home. It's kind of a scam. So, if any of the responsible people read this, take the crap off the market and put some horsepower under the hood, what the hell!!!
I also don't understand how some people can talk about mediocre to even good longevity here. Yes, it has longevity, at 0.8 cm. Riddles upon riddles. And before people come in with "let it mature." No, I don't want to buy a perfume for €40 that I then have to let mature for 3 months before I can even use it, and I strongly doubt that this is the problem, because the tester was almost empty.
That's why I advise everyone against it. Get the CDNI for €28, ignore the first 20 minutes, and you'll have a cool bottle, power under the hood, and a scent that does the same thing, just with that certain extra, which also performs all day long. Send the money to the Arabs, they put in the effort and sold it at an incredibly fair price. They can buy themselves a new eagle with it, they deserve it. There you get the scent and the action that I would have expected from a rock band. So I need to calm down now. Adios
