Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man EDT - Best Creed Aventus Clone?

[@CurlyFragrance]

Have you tried this one? 💥 Fragrances are linked in the description box! If you like this video give it a thumbs up 👍 Thanks for watching! ❤

[@bradulovic82]

I tried CDNIM twice, and both times it performed just like you described - really strong citrus, like some cleaning chemicals, and some wet wood - and that lasted for hours with me. I hated it. And funny enough, both those bottles came/were with broken chain.

[@jward3961]

You’re slipping Michella. When you said I like the feel of the box. Was totally expecting “I like the feel of the Big Black Box” but nothing. 😂😂😂😂 I don’t buy direct cheap clones. Inspired by from another house I’ll buy but not somebody just attempting to ripoff another brand 1 for 1. In that general dna I like Hacivat.

I loved the EDT so much i bought the Limited Edition EDP and my wife and I love them! I personally love the opening and don't get a cleaner vibe at all! The LE is definitely smoother in the opening and lasts way longer on my skin. I've smelled Aventus and to my nose CDNIM smells identical and lasts way longer! But every nose is different and to each their own!

I can only speak for CDNIM limited edition and that is the best Aventus clone i have. Followed by Al Haramain L‘Aventure intense. They are both very similar but the limited edition is more peppery and smells a little bit more expensive to me. Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense is also very good but more of a Aventus/Hacivat mix

I have almost 300 fragrances myself, I am neither Aventus nor CDNI fanboy. Nevertheless, I have all 4 common concentrations of the CDNI. Only the EdT has the bad opening, I can't advise anyone to buy the Edt variant. EdP, Perfume and Limited Edition Perfume do not have this opening. You should also definitely try the Ltd Ed perfume. There are worlds between the EdT and it. The Ltd Ed Parfum Version also sparked a kind of hype about Parfumo in the perfume community

[@weirdversions]

My opinion: I had a sample of Club de Nuit, and loved the smell a LOT, after the opening is gone. Really really good. I watched you before saying Al Haramain L'Aventure was a better option, then I got a sample of it... I have to be honest, L'Aventure is weak, pale, and lacks the deepness Club the Nuit's drydown offers. You say it's "smoother"... I agree... But I think there's a reason why Club The Nuit is so popular: the drydown is REALLY good, and girls like it a lot. Love you Curly :*

[@rwyo83]

You should have tried L'Aventure Intense, but still weak.

Lasts for about 14-16 hours on me ( I spray on my cloths about 5-7 sprays and go to work 12 hour shift ) When I come home after 14 hours my lady smells it on me even few steps away. The opening is too much, but after 1 hour it becomes great, that's when i get to work. I get around 1-2 compliments each weak and few more "reminders" from the same people. Even today i got a compliment from a lady that walked behind me on the street about 20 meters, when she got to me she had to ask what I'm using coz it smells so good and projects so far.

Good evening. I have smelled the EDT, and I have three iterations of CDNIM: EDP, Limited Edition Parfum, Pure Parfum. For me the Pure Parfum is the best as far as likeness to Creed Aventus, followed by the EDP and Limited Edition Parfum (the smokiest of the lot). They are all fantastic, but the EDT's opening isn't as good as the rest - I find it more lemony instead of pineapple and bergamot. Stay blessed.

I agree that Al Haramain L’Aventura is an overall better fragrance from the standpoint of the wearer - opening is great, has a nice dry-down - but CDNIM is not as unpleasant in the opening (15 minutes) as people always complain about. If you hadn’t heard a million other influencers complain about the opening being line a lemon cleaning product, you wouldn’t have thought it was bad. Old batches of Aventus have a strong lemon opening - CDNIM reproduces that. I’ve worn CDNIM to work and in social occasions and gotten tons of positive comments on this, and never gotten one compliment on actual Creed Aventus (because modern batches of Acentus die within 2hours). CDNIM is the best original Creed Aventus clone when all things are considered - price, scent profile, longevity, projection are all on target and are better than Aventus modern batches. Al Haramain is awesome (and I have you too thank for turning my attention to it 😍👍🏻), and still a better MUCH better bargain than Creed Aventus, but CDNIM is better in overall performance and mirroring of what Aventus should STILL be. Armaf really puts out some great clones and puts most of the original fragrance houses to shame on how they make a good fragrance for a few years then cheapen the batches and try to rest on their first few years of good reputation to sell cheep watered down batches and maximize profits.

So I can say I really like it but I haven’t tested female reactions. It lasts and projects, so will get noticed, and gives a cosy feel for the winter. In my opinion it should be a compliment getter, but I can’t confirm. I’ll probably buy it in the next month or two. Parfums De Marly Carlisle smells similar but costs a lot more.

Hey Michella, how are you dear 🌹 I agree with you, I didn't like it that much and didn't get more bottles. But I was fooled and really thought that my colleague (first time we meet) was wearing Creed Aventus 😮 then he told me no this is CDNIM! I stopped wearing Aventus or clones since some months and rarely wore them since last couple of years. So, my nose is not used to them anymore and can smell the dna easily on other people. Strange it is better in the air and closer to Aventus, than smelling it from the bottle or owning it 🤔

[@edwardsilva489]

Curly, if you haven't already could you please do a review on the edp LIMITED EDITION version?? It is nothing like the EDT! Thank you ❤

[@FishplateFilms]

Hi Curly , I swear you're trolling me..LOL . I just ordered this last week and it's arriving in a few days. I've never tried Aventus , but I love my Cedrat Boise , but for the price I thought why not! Still waiting for the Intense Cedrat to hit Australia. Thanks and cheers , Gregg :-)

[@rodrigolafuente1202]

What you think about Zara vibrant leather?

[@davidtraining511]

My experience with cnim has been good on the compliment aspect since i know about the opening i just put it about half hour prior to work and is just fine.

[@Magnum_Express]

i will agree that the armaf does have that pinesol/lemon pledge opening. its strong, and have been told by others who smelled it on me that its too much. but the dry down is nice, does last long. i still smell it on my clothes hours later.

[@blagojmilosevski9547]

How's the performance of CDNIM EDT 2022 batches??

[@navodaya.chourasia]

it smells best next day!

[@NvrFinal]

Creed Aventus is still the best. I keep going back to it. Sadly the price point sucks but there's a reason why it's still the king.

[@nykia31]

After a few months, I don't get that crazy opening anymore. It's like the fragrance got better blended over time. It's still really citrusy at the open, but it isn't just a blast for the 1st 1/2 hour-45 minutes. Can't explain why.

[@Promise.4k]

Bro I’m thinking the exact same thing. This thing is aging so well

[@a-b-f3403]

@@Promise.4k what to do in order to age well?

[@manoja501]

What about the limited edition of this?

[@Lawless_1]

The limited edition parfum is more rounded and smoother. It lasts longer on me and is a compliment magnet.

[@addeyemmy]

EDP or EDT?

[@AG-ql1sy]

hey what do you think of montblanc explorer? im glad i seen this video. i got CDNIM after lots of hype from other fragrance reviewers and comments and ill be honest it just didnt appeal to me. i remember the opening was just a lemon citrus bomb and i had to pretend and force myself to like it because of all the other positive reviews. also you say you wouldn't wear a fragrance if you don't like the opening but what about dior sauvage elixir? the opening is sickly but dry down is so good

[@darki1040]

In the beginning its tough yeah with time its even better i get complimented by Woman after 2 hours apply and just today again after 5 hours apply. Its just amazing for this money!

[@5StarKassar]

CDNIM is my most most complimented cologne. It projects on BEAST mode. Also, each batch smells different, I’ve had a batch that had a lot of pineapple 🍍 in it.

[@Rowdy_gamb0]

But averagely they smell good in any of the batches?

[@onpoint357]

​@@Rowdy_gamb0you have to understand everyone's nose is going to smell differently. The best judge is always your own nose.

[@AZ-gs6hj]

Might try this. I really wanted to like aventus, wore a sample today and just get no longevity from it. Smells really good, but weak projection and doesn’t last more than 2 hours on me.

[@dann6764]

Are you going to review the edp and maybe the limited edition in the future? The edp fixes the opening problem and is blended a little better and the limited edition is the best blened one.

[@milunmickoradosevic5391]

Help people, is there a better edp version than edt for ARMAF CDNI

[@handycartmexican5640]

What happened to the street rating?

[@enrique_mlg]

Fantastic review, Curly 😃 👍 I Have Al Haramain, L'aventure, and L'aventure intense, and for me, L'aventure is the best clon of Aventus. Thanks for the video. Greetings from Spain 🇪🇦 Muuuuaahhh... Bye, bye... 😁❤️🤗

[@CurlyFragrance]

Gracias! ❤️🤗
