I have exactly one of these 🙂 My top niches for life: Naxos, Jubilation 40, Absolu Aventus, Nio, Vertus Vanilla Oud, Elysium Parfum Pour Homme, and Oajan. Only have seven that are for life....though I am 54 and have 50+ full bottles, so chances are EVERY frag in my collection is for life 🙂

Vanilla Oud has this strange wet cement note, but on my second wearing I couldn’t stop smelling it and the dry down is stellar lol. Gris Charnel Extrait and Amouage Enclave are two fragrances that I blind bought and like just fine, but women absolutely go nuts over. The sillage is excellent in a light spring wind, particularly nights out. Must be the cardamom. Nice list! I enjoy your very real take on fragrances.

At this point is it worth getting aventus? Or getting a clone? I have a sample from decantx and no lie, it stays on my skin for 1.5 hrs. Projection is really bad.

So I understand the question.. And my real thoughts are to go with what stifles you.. there are many GREAT clones out there that will make you drop the idea of owning a bottle of aventus.. but there’s always something special about the original creation.
