spring freshness
Blind bought. This smells wonderful. The opening is quite different from GIT. Creed GIT has an opening that smells like freshly cut grass and reminds me of floor cleaning product (not a fan). The opening of L'Aventure Knight is synthetic powdery and lemony, and not particularly pleasant. However, as they dry down, they begin to smell very similar. Both have a very pleasant powdery, clean, marine, and flowery (iris and violet) scent. With 4-6 sprays, it lasts at least 8 hours on my skin.
It's not love, but I like it a lot. My partner described me as smelling like a perfume version of men shower gel. In a good way, of course.

versatile
Very versatile. Can be a signature scent in the spring and summer. I ordered a sample first, but I wasn't convinced. I was drawn to that sample and continued to apply until I was concurred. The pineapple note isn't as strong, nor is the leather (which I can't really detect). Lemon, bergamot, and apple are definitely present in the opening. I ordered a 150ml bottle and became completely addicted. It's fresh, and the combination of woods and citruses works beautifully. The disadvantage is poor performance. My one will not last... I really wanted this to be the beast that everyone claims it to be... However, after about 4-5 hours, I feel the need to reapply because the scent is almost like a skin fragrance...Also, because I couldn't detect the pineapple, I decided to layer it with Qaed Al Fursan. It works like magic. However, that one also fades quickly. So in conclusion, great smelling perfume, but poor performance for me.

Modern classic
I blind bought this one as I found it for £20 at TK Maxx UK. It has great reviews in the community so I thought to give it a go. And I could not be happier. It smells so perfect for spring. I very much prefer it over Santal 33 - for me that one has the pickle note extremely strong and I can't stand it. Century on the other hand has nothing of that. I must say that this one is up high there in terms of quality. I am probably lucky as my batch is from 2017 so I feel like it is first release (which is a bit confusing as the year of launch here is 2018). The presentation is impeccable and feels way more expensive then what it is priced. It smells classy and fresh, crisp and clean. Neroli and citrus drying into a beautiful floral woody smell. And it projects very well. I applied the perfume at 13 and now it is 17 and still going strong. I can still smell it around me. I am impressed.
