Unexpected
Excited I waited for the shipment of the 10ml sample Molecule01 from StolzerOskar.
Today then came the letter.
First spray: Sharp alcoholic note, no scent recognizable. Oh no, I can not smell Iso-E-Super at all (as some report here)? The top note consists solely of pungent alcohol, which takes its 5-10 minutes until it is completely gone. Then, very slowly, the aromas unfold. Some say freshly sharpened pencil, that's about right. It reminds me of an old apartment with creaking beams. The smell of dry wood. But it certainly doesn't smell like a freshly washed t-shirt. Not yet.
The scent doesn't strike me as strong either. You have to smell closely.
But curiously, it gets stronger and stronger and after an hour, the note actually goes somewhat in the direction of fresh laundry. But different than I had expected. He then remains for several hours. Definitely does not carry a cloud in front of you, but at least my brother found that you can already hear him clearly.
After 6h I hardly notice anything.

What amazed me was the development, from pungent alcohol to pencil/dry wood to fresh laundry, while becoming stronger and stronger, unlike all other perfumes that I know.

The price is of course already a number for such a fragrance. Especially when you consider that this is more chemistry than creation. I would be interested times, how well you can assemble it yourself, with neutral alcohol and Timbersilk could go for the fraction of the price.

So that's him
the Olympus among perfumes (at least in terms of popularity): Creed Aventus.

I have yes slowly approached the world of fragrances. For years I wore nothing but Boss Bottled and One Million and thought nothing more of it. But then learned about the hype around Aventus and 4 years ago times of such a dupe company (whose name must not be named) in the 50% special offer procured a copy to be able to assess the nature of the perfume. Sour, smoky pineapple, I was immediately thrilled, but had no plans yet to spend >200€ on the original. Now in the 2.Lockdown started to collect everything that goes in this fragrance direction, and I think it is now probably almost 2L together.

But it all helps nothing if you do not know the original, therefore struck at the French of Nose.fr. Batch No. 20M01.

First spray, yes, so I imagined the original: Less biting than L'Aventure and Club de Nuit Intense (less citrus cleaner!), finely fruity, pineapple recognizable, although citrus dominates after all. Well balanced!

So after 30min-1h then the smoke emerges and the fruit retreats. The smoke note is already very strong, stronger than most dupes and can be somewhat penetrating.

With me, the scent on the skin is almost gone after about 5h. One has read a lot about it. Measured against the copies, the durability is good, measured against bombs like One Million of course not.

Overall, I am satisfied. The top note is really successful and you can smell almost not full. The base almost too much smoke, I standh probably rather on the fruity (or pineapple) composition of Aventus DNA.

Rightly the king of fragrances, but with the moderate durability, the price is of course already a number. Some speak, after all, of "Greed" Aventus....

Will wear it on special occasions and in everyday life continue to use my fragrance twins with the same DNA.

Crazy mistake
On my odyssey through the inscrutable world of Aventus Dupes, I wanted to get the Rumz al Rasasi Zebra at the right (price) opportunity.
When the package arrived today, I was disappointed to find out that the leopard was delivered instead of the zebra. I looked again in the online shop, it was probably a mistake on my part, because they do not carry the zebra at all. I should concentrate more when ordering.

Briefly looked here, rating 7.7, maybe it fits. First spray, what is that for a (stink) bomb? Quite difficult to classify, what in my collection there is still most similar, is the Shaghaf Oud Abyad by Swiss Arabian. Also compared directly with each other (left arm - right arm) and let it work. Top note very similar, oriental-smoky. While the dense incense and oud smokiness remain with the Swiss Arabian, they become more subtle with the Rasasi, and something floral emerges. But not necessarily weak durability, even after 6h still very clearly audible.

The fragrance is already very special. Can you wear on vacation in Dubai. In everyday working life absolutely unthinkable.
My sister in law found him terrible.

A fragrance that fits only a few occasions. Even if he pleases me quite after some time. Let's see, maybe I keep a small part for special occasions and see if someone wants him in the souk. Somehow I have enough perfume for the rest of my life now and need to structure/economize it a bit. But no hurry...

Good but weaker Fahrenheit clone
Fahrenheit by Dior is the signature scent of my brother, and is for my taste a bit too penetrating masculine, you could say a testosterone boost. Since I can imagine but quite situations where you can wear such a fragrance, I have struck at this La Rive copy times. At the price you can not go wrong.

The bottle is colored to the original and comes in a standard form.

The fragrance immediately unfolds the typical Fahrenheit aroma. I could today again gegentesten the original and the scent differences are rather small, especially in the top note. The main difference is in the strength. I find the original to be more of a sillage bomb and this one comes in much weaker. After the top note fades away, it becomes quite skin tight. But you can smell him even after more than 6h still directly on the skin.

Apply more generously and re-spray, and the Hitfire is a good low-budget alternative.

Good price performance
The One4Him I had bought a year or two ago in Aldi. Gladly I would still have the One2Be, but I decided then to take only one and since then I have not seen him in Aldi. If you do some online research, you can see that Aldi probably always runs the promotion in the first week of December. Price is top with 5 euros (if I remember correctly).

Flacon is nothing special. There is still a cylindrical box made of aluminum or tin in addition.

The scent is very pleasant, fresh, somewhat reminiscent of a fresh men's deodorant or shower gel. I hardly think there are people who hate this scent.

I can't make a comparison because I don't have Dior's Sauvage. But if that one is anything like it, a little more intense, it would be an item for my wish list.

The scent is not strong or penetrating from the start, but comes across rather faint on the chest. But it still lasts a long time and you can still smell it well on the skin after 6-8h. So you can say, good durability, moderate sillage.

For this price, definitely a nobrainer. Can you have in any case in the collection.
