...knocked on the bush...
Ah,
what must one often hear or read of evil
Scents hear or read

Like for example here of these
which were called "SWEET" and "STICKY"

I confess, I am addicted
other statements, all void!

I don't know..
how it's done
whether at any crypts
the jasmine from Egypt
is eagerly screwing around
or sticking well?

Cyanide
even the almond
with the sensual rush and change
always anew
my hat?

In the reason it does not matter
the Baccarat redeems the torment...

Once the receptor is occupied
the endorphin provides the rest!

Urine and uranium...
One of my esteemed biochemistry professors would probably have put it this way:

"Aventus has about as much to do with Orion as urine has with uranium."

Even the fruity opening of the two fragrances cannot hide the fact that the similar top note is basically the only real common denominator. At the latest when the heart notes unfold, the paths separate. The "second born" Orion is an original creation. Definitely.

If you like, the YANG elements clearly dominate the "Italian" from now on, while the "Englishman", in contrast, appears to be a YIN type.

Orion has a much spicier and warmer effect due to the use of thyme and oregano in the heart area. The base of the Terenzi fragrance is also much more woody due to oud and cedar, and, thanks to incense and amber, also more resinous than its Creed counterpart.

There again the heart notes rose and juniper berry play in the middle and provide - in combination with the somewhat "greener" pineapple of the top note - by floral-metallic cool hints for greater freshness. Vanilla, ambergris and oakmoss underline the overall harmonious impression and create a balsamic-soft base. But: This idyll seems a bit empty and a bit sterile in places. Perfection can be quite tiring in the long run - even the olfactory nerves (anosmia!).

Speaking of which: Sometimes a highly synthetic note spreads at higher doses of Aventus, which does exactly that, namely n e v e n v e n . Dose-increases are therefore not a tried and tested way to escape a possible boredom.

Orion won't get embarrassed. In any case, the community sees him as the clearly more complex type of fragrance. Apart from the resinous aspect already mentioned above, the more masculine Southerner of all people seems to be even richer in a flowery facet for the testers. The remarkable interplay of jasmine and birch skilfully balances the fiery character of Mediterranean herbs and is reminiscent over long stretches of the beloved L'Air du Désert Marocain by Tauer. Noble, noble!

Durability and Sillage of Orion and Aventus are similar and rank in the upper midfield. Orion tends to be ahead of the game. It is probably due to the fact that Terenzi has not saved on the quality of the raw materials used and that it is also a genuine "Extrait de Parfum"
Regardless of this, Orion scores with the significantly better price-performance ratio.

The "A" and "O" of fruitiness at a glance:

Aventus: YIN type fresh, soft, harmonious (EdP)
Orion: YANG type warm, spicy, powerful (XdP)

You decide.

Shooting powder decelerator!
Some things just take time. Chaman's party, for example. In the beginning the party doesn't want to get going. The practically only guest of weight struggles with starting difficulties.

And this is not surprising, since "Vetiver" is a fragrance extracted from the roots of a tropical species of grass. It takes several hours to reach his full potential! So if you are hoping for a quickie, an igniting firework or even blossoming landscapes, you can click here confidently...

Chaman's Party starts in the truest sense of the word "underground": deep, smoky, discreetly salty, bitter-aromatic and dark.

Over time, however, the fragrance breaks through the topsoil, grows, thrives and becomes softer and rounder. Aromas of guaiac and whisky join in and finally grate the wood sweetly. The balance will be perfect. The whole thing is at any time very masculine, warm and super relaxing.

Chaman's party is grounded and leads to its own center: Pure root power! What basically appeals to me about the fragrance is that hardly anyone knows it and that it has been composed without any synthetics. You can feel this authenticity.

Test recommendation for all (persevering) lovers. ;-)

Still clean?
"He smells like soap", this or similar was the first blunt feedback from my personal environment. Ok, I admit that I was somewhat surprised, if not quite disappointed at the time: One of my first niche scents, which I carefully approached - and then this fiasco!

From today's point of view, the reaction is absolutely understandable. Touaregh is probably as densely woven as the garments of the desert nomads who were the inspiration for the name. Unlike my esteemed fellow commentators, I therefore do not even attempt to cut this "material" in the first place.

Touaregh has an effect on me as a whole and first and foremost as a fine material. I would describe it most aptly as lightful, gentle and pure. Untouched like an oasis in the desert still waiting to be discovered. Not of this world. Not yet.

Some may unconsciously associate this immanent originality and "purity" with the everyday ritual of soaping or washing. In this respect, the circle closes here. You feel good when you've done it.

For me Touaregh resembles a garment of ivory-coloured light - airy, ethereal and enveloping at the same time. His ability to flow in a constantly iridescent way in form and to mark boundaries at the same time makes him unmistakably unique. It is far more than the sum of the quality ingredients that breathed its existence into it and now give it the quality to lift our spirits. Muscat thank you.

I see Touaregh mainly in people who have already found their place in life or are about to take it.

Currently my absolute feel-good fragrance No.1!
Definitely with addictive potential.
