I encourage these houses because it teaches a lesson to the designer and niche houses to come back to earth from the clouds with their insane prices and formulations that get worse and worse each year. More people should buy these clones.

[@johngamer7]

Bro, he's one of these houses LMFAO...

[@profound369]

​@@johngamer7 his prices are justified in comparison to normal niche houses

[@billgallagher2450]

He makes extrait de parfum concentrations with top notch ingredients. We are talking above 22 pct oil concentration.

[@hunter1hall]

If the original loses longevity, loses sillage, and becomes less of the fragrance that made it king and still continues to charge the same premium or more, then I applaud anyone for making something that can outperform the original and save its consumer money.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

I aggee

[@siegfriedo]

Exactly why I would not bother buying the CA. I have CDIM Limited Edition Parfum for the fraction of CA price and with monstrous performance, longevity and sillage. CA is still lovely but is rather subtle from the get go and quickly loses any power it has and fades away. It does not deserve the outrageous price tag by any stretch.

[@revoltzzz1178]

Earlier versions of Aventus had linalool in the mixture, which obviously provided for the intensity now lacking in the current formulation (same thing happened with La Nuit de l’Homme EDT, or with the outright suspension of Terre d’Hermes Eau Fraiche) but I don’t see the same amount of criticism in their case… one has to wonder why …

[@oginza]

Amen to that. Let the market do its thing and may the best quality product win the consumers!

[@Tsobe]

@@siegfriedo Because CDNIM is disgusting compared to the original, had both but tossed CDNIM

Maximum credit to you for reviewing dupes, especially of the houses who wildly overcharge nowadays. Lattafa and Perfume Parlour are worth looking at. I love PP's version of PDM Herod, which is a bit sweeter in the opening and dries down very similar to the Parfums de Marly, which I own and love as well. By the way, Oxytocin is one of my all time favourites! I had an unprompted compliment from the supervisor at the checkout at my Sainsbury's local! x

[@ANA7H3MAhd]

Been binging your content lately, can’t get enough. Wishing you health and wealth

[@damirmateljic2435]

In my opinion, you are 100% right Aaron. If the original starts lacking and gets reformulated to a point where its no longer its former "beast" self than those dupe companies should feel free to take the old DNA and revive it again. I Own this Club de nuit intense man Parfum and the Club De Nuit "Sillage EDP" (Silver Mountain Water) clone wich also apparently smells like the old formulations as far as ive heard from a few people. I used to like and respect Creed for their fragrances..... but man after so many refomulations i dont even know what to think anymore to be honest.

[@indianhistorybuff]

Millisime Imperial is even worse. Milestone by Armaf is miles better.

[@twistedfantasyy]

@@indianhistorybuff YES. I have the Millesime Imperial because it's one of my favorite scents but the poor sillage and performance is just unacceptable for the price. Thankfully I only paid $150 for mine because it's a partial but spending retail on a full bottle of this is unjustifiable when Armaf's Milestone has more depth and is stronger than the original at 20% of the price.

[@galdinoflores6974]

First of all, thank you! To get a dupe review from you is a big deal to me, personally, because I have a good mixture of dupes and original perfumes. My small collection has to fit into my budget and your specialty of chemistry background and creator of a perfume house creates a unique environment for reviews. Fantastic Review!!

I’m excited that you’re getting off your high horse man. No offense. But your reviews are great and we need someone like you to represent. Your format is super dope!

[@Jonah3106]

Of all the fragrances I've owned over the years, expensive and cheap, creed, TF, PDM etc; I have never had more compliments than when I was wearing this one. I personally felt the same in that the scent was only close to the skin, but the amount of times people have said I can smell the trail of you down the corridor on this one is insane. The sillage on it is actually a beast!

Also, it was very nice seeing you go way more in depth than me, haha. I'm very excited to see your video comparing aventus formulations!

@AbdulAzizGamer2 can't speak directly to that formulation. CDNIM LE is like a more smokey fruity batch.

[@patricklynch9145]

i’m not against dupes but sometimes it does upset me because i feel that the original work of the perfumer is being ripped off. However like you said if they’re going to reformulate things and sell us stuff that lasts two seconds for $300, then i see where dupe houses have their place.

[@celeste.430]

I feel the same, not against dupes but feel it’s a bit wrong to “copy” another’s work. I do think brands like LVMH/Estee Lauder etc. ruin perfumer’s original work with reformulations. I wonder if that’s why we’re seeing more perfumers “recreate” their old fragrances with niche houses or creating their own house.

[@hawaiianprestigecars8493]

@@celeste.430 If people would be educated more on what goes into the perfume market they would welcome dupes as good as the limited club ed nuit a lot more. Aventus sells for what 300$ with a cost of less than 15$ a bottle. All good and fine, the big issue is when they try to drop even that number and start using cheaper and cheaper ingredients (barley any get banned) its legit all cost effectiveness they are looking for. I have never had a dupe or clone as sharp and good as The CDN limited. I am stunned.

[@macadonis9242]

My friend had new batch of creed I sampled smh..lasted maybe hour with poor projection no smoke was clean smell but basic. My dad and I later had a sample of creed. We both was like this is so weak and not impressed..talk about reformulated wow.

I’m glad you did the limited edition because it’s the best version. Unfortunately most people buy the standard one which is very harsh in the beginning. The standard version is half the price of this one though

[@ionutistrate2320]

I own Creed Aventus and also CDNIM Parfum Edition, i must say Armaf has a better longevity and better projection but I still prefer Aventus it's smells somehow more natural if makes sense. I had people asking what is the frag. you wearing I need to buy it for my husband was Armaf 🤦😳

[@winnienguyen4420]

This is one of my favorite reviews ever. Aventus has gone so far downhill that it must be boycotted. My husband used to use Aventus until he finally but a bottle of CDNIM a couple of years ago and thought it to be a dead ringer for his 2010 Aventus batch. So he decided buying Aventus was just stupid and now he layers the CDNIM with Al Haramain L'Aventure for the whole Aventus vibe and sometimes even Terre D'hermes for an even more classy and unique scent. The results are heavenly.

[@AbdulAzizAlkendi]

So this like 2010 batches?

[@DropBear2099]

I personally feel like if you like a scent and don't want to pay an outrageous price for a name then there is nothing wrong with wearing a dupe as long as you don't go trying to pass it off for the real thing. Some of us out there don't really have the budget to afford a $300 dollar by Killian fragrance but can afford a $50 Alexandria fragrance dupe that smells almost 💯 the same.

[@djjjjjd]

It's probably worth putting "Limited Edition" in the title as it is technically a different fragrance to the original CDNIM, and there are probably people looking for videos on the limited edition specifically as it's widely regarded as the best one in the CDNIM line up.

[@LeslieLane-w2u]

I have a few Creeds, Aventus and Aventus Cologne which I prefer. Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man gets more compliments than Creed it is the cheapest version EDT I also have EDP. I don’t have Limited Edition. I have a few Armaf clones and most are excellent, especially Killan Rose Oud clone, lasts forever. Lovely and interesting presentation by you. 👍

You are the first perfumer in which I can get the pure breakdown and story of your fragrances and they are extraordinary. Patchouli Noir is my favorite as well as Raw Cherry. I will definitely be getting your Oud when you relaunch as I am fascinated with how it will be presented. Thank you for being you and for celebrating the perfume world.

It’s the most complimented fragrance I’ve ever worn and the cheapest. The limited edition really suits my skin . I’ve always struggled to find the right fragrance for myself .

Great review of a remarkable fragrance (for the price). I really like the fact that you actually wore the fragrance before the review instead of using your expertise to surmise what the performance, scent character and development will be from what essentially is a first impression (of the opening). As knowledgeable as you are and as an experienced perfumer its great to get your fully informed take from an extended wearing. Hopefully all (or most) of your reviews from now on will adopt this protocol.

Hello Mr Aaron. I had a chance to sample the onyx extreme from my friend . I was absolutely stunned when I smelt it. That chocolaty smell and the rose is something to die for. Very well blended

I have the original formula - its literally just a heavy lavender with a slight spice. No depth, no transitions, no top note, just... a lavender bakery smell. So boring! - You'll find something better. LNDL is almost like what white bread would smell like if it was flavored with lavender.

I had this fragrance and sold it, I didn’t feel comfortable wearing a dupe. I could smell the similarities but felt it was a synthetic version of the original. Wish I kept it now and did the layering with the genuine Aventus. Great idea.

[@texasfan8892]

Aventus batches have varied so much over its lifetime. Some of the earlier batches were really fruity and pineapple heavy, while others were really smoky. The first time I tried it was in 2012 and it was a pure smoke bomb but I couldn't remember which batch it was and even ones during the same year would have slight variations. The holy grail batches are those that were made prior to 2015 in my opinion, or at least when they still used non-IFRA compliant oakmoss. The best batch I've tried is 15U01. It was the perfect balance between fruity pineapple and smoky birch tar and leather and was a beast in terms of performance.

[@AbdulAzizAlkendi]

So what about club de nuit limited

[@Dude10946]

Ok, so this is the Limited Edition. I’ll have to try it. I bought the CFNIM edt because I heard so many great things about it. Then when I sprayed it, it was pretty bad. It smelled like lemon cleaner and it gave me a headache every time I tried it. I actually returned it. Then again, I tried Aventus after I tried CDNIM EDT cause I was told it was one of the best scents is the world and i actually hated it too. Wouldn’t have bought it either. I don’t know what it is about that scent dna but it’s so tricky to me.

[@Alexsignal90]

They smell the same. Its a pinapple scent and people say it smells like pinesol but the same can be said about the OG. Its just people following whatever the haters say and then it creates a bias.

[@Dude10946]

@@Alexsignal90 I didn’t come into CDNIM being a hater at all. I really wanted to like it and actually bought it but it was just too harsh for me. As far as Aventus, it just didn’t work for me. Maybe I’m just sensitive to this type of scent. I’m going to try the limited edition that Aaron reviewed here and see how it works for me.

[@robusto7735]

I have this but the Pure Parfum version. It's toned down a bit and isn't as sharp but it puts me in the same headspace as what Aventus does. I've had bottles of Aventus going back to 2011 and yes, it's similar. I think the original Aventus from over a decade ago was more dark and creamy than what CDNIM smells like but there are some similarities. For the cost of this and what it does, it's a no-brainer!

It could be ATH fragrances, a ATH fragrance with something else (designe/Niche) or 2 fragrances that are not your creations.

Please let me know if you need a decant of Signature rose for testing!

Recently found your reviews. Love them! Keep up the awesome work!

I had this 5 years ago and it was incredible, a beast! I got a bottle last week and its like water, reformulated to death! I swear I did 4 sprays on the back of my hand, within 3 hours only a very very faint smell, barely noticeable, sad, never again, the good days for this frag are long gone 😢

...and I subscribed and binged at least 20 of your videos today. What an outstanding job you're doing! If I may can I suggest reviewing these 3 from Chanel: Coromandel, Sycomore and Cuir de russie? Cheers

The EDT is super loud like the original Aventus. The EDP is smoother and more subdued. I owned Aventus a few weeks ago, hated the new formulation enough to resell the bottle and then a friend gifted me the CDNIM gift set for v-day.

Nice review. I have Aventus and have owned the CdNIM. Sold the Armaf. It was good, but it's simply not Aventus. Thumbs down to all of the Creed "haters". Aventus is one of the greatest scents ever created.

Never thought about layering this with actual aventus. May need to try that. Thanks!

Support the small businesses and support Arron. The big companies charge big money and give us less. Small companies charge less and give your more.

I would love to see Aaron make a review of Club De Nuit Iconic.

[@emiliosman820]

Aaron great review if it makes you feel.better even major houses are cloning or having a similar scent ro Aventus and BR540. Even Boadicea has one called Consort that smells like a higher quality original Aventus!

I trust Aaron’s opinion 100%! Great content as always!

I've recently started following you. I have no idea about 99% of the stuff when you get into chemistry, but I enjoy it and learn (hopefully become less ignorant). I hope to chech your fragrances soon. Site seems on hold for now. It would be great if you sold sample sets

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Welcome aboard!

[@RexNEffect]

Idk about Armaf or Arman I just know I just bought two smoulders with the bogo at maxaroma. Can’t wait for the rebranding!!
