CREED AVENTUS CLONE? | MERCEDES BENZ SELECT FRAGRANCE REVIEW

😂😂😂 that v neck tho

[@jezebulls]

Remember when Ben Stiller did a skit on SNL where they were trying to outdo each other’s deep cut V-necks to see who can go the lowest?

[@dan.nashmusic]

My impressions... it has a wide deep opening, definitely in the blue category. It's unisex at best. The presentation is elegant... dress it up or dress it down. It has a youthful vibe and gets lots of compliments. Those are my impressions... of that lovely number you've got on.

[@deejaydfc]

Here's a thought... We have these things called cell phones that we can set an alarm every 4 hours to apply 2 more squirts of a $30 fragrance instead of paying over $200 for a fragrance that is expensive because the "Whale Puke" that they use in Aventis is what makes it expensive = $5 per drop.

[@raraiko]

Even though you recommended to pass on it, I have just ordered it for 32 Euro. Tried it from a local store for a couple of times and I liked it. Yea, it really carries that Aventus vibe, the performance is better than expected, you get a decent bottle for the collection and it is relatively inexpensive imho. Sure thing, it won't replace Aventus from my shelf, but that is also not the idea behind it.

[@94nolo]

2018: okay we've talked a lot about Creed, can't wait to move on 2019: hold my beer

[@bullet650able]

Very nice review, as usual. Very good content. I enjoy your reviews and the way you go about them. Thank you for taking the time and effort in making them.

[@MRfisheri]

Bought one. My batch code is on the side of the bottle at the bottom. Opposite side to the size and concentration information.

[@peaceful4you408]

I joined a company called scent box that sends me out a monthly subscription worth of cologne. They didn’t have creed Aventus but they said they had a much cheaper substitute called the Mercedes’ Benz select and they were not lying. They smell almost identical. I had creed before as a birthday gift before that cost $450 which is insane.

[@blackbass4u2c]

Mercedes-Benz Select is a great performance alternative to Aventus... if it falls short in the day... it's so enjoyable in the opening... spray on some more... it lasts longer on fabric as well

[@samgao]

Aventus itself is weak performer for me too. 3-4 hours max. 2018 batch

[@FatherOfDragonss]

This is a nice clean, fresh, slightly sweet frag. It's pleasant. I like it. The bottle is nice too.

[@TheQuirby]

Spot on with the review but the blouse he’s wearing………. that’s hilarious 😂 🤣😂

[@brunogiambroni1422]

[@9EricCN3]

Have you tried the Rasasi Zebra fragrance? That's my favorite Aventus clone.

[@ahmmoh7882]

What % of similarity to aventus in ur opinion ? What other rasasi you tried ?

[@_Frimer_]

The Zara Vibrant Leather you bought if it was 2 years ago was the EDT version. The new formulation is EDP. I initially thought I had to spray it more then usual so it would perform well... big mistake! My wife nagged me that I put too much. I only sprayed 4 times. 1 chest, 2 each side of the neck, 1 back of the neck. So I have no issues whatsoever with the new formulation and I can assure you it is one of the top 3 clones of Aventus.I even wear it to the perfume shop and ask the niche sales lady if she could tell what I was wearing. Took her 2 secs to say Aventus.I suggest you try the new formulation 😉

[@FitnessGod1990]

Still only lasts less than 2 hours

[@BestBrandsPerfume]

Gosh these Benz Fragrances are just flooding now, Benz, Benz select, Benz club, Benz club fresh, Benz intense. And a bunch more as well.

[@ultrafiend]

Never tried the main juice. But as far as Aventus clones go, I own CDNIM. Recently tried Fine Accoutrements Platinum EdT, which is literally a slightly juicier and less smoky CDNIM. Performs the whole day at the office with 3-4 sprays. Done.

[@foreverfragrance7]

It's about time somebody covered these!!!

[@droidnutt1130]

I have never seen so many men concerned so much with what another man was wearing except for this one time i accidently went to a gay club.Great review Ash.

[@oni_goroshi]

"accidentally"

[@luciferro2002]

I've been quite impressed by Mercedes Benz for man and especially by the Intense. I wanted to get this one too, but I already own Aventus and a few other clones, so I wasn't rushing. But now I can finally forget about this one for good. So thanks for your honest and informative review. Cheers!

[@elhi1938]

Please give us your take on Bruce Willis Private Edition.There are people who say it's close to Aventus,and it has impressive performance!

Thanks again for saving us money Ash! 💪

[@DivineLight5D]

My Vanilla Intense from Parfums Vintage literally has dies off my skin almost with in 20 mins and I get no vanilla at all... it is so basic I don't see it grabbing anyone's attention .... it's a watered down version of PVI... They send the reviewers the masterpiece 1st batch to sell us on it idk but I'm really disappointed... rush of unicorns was solid but this is awful. I got it early last week it's sitting in a dark place and I sprayed some out see if it changes in 3 weeks but I think i might return it I mean can i?

[@DivineLight5D]

Sorry to rant Might return for PVI ..just hope it's not reformulated

[@peteygreene2500]

X batch intense is 🔥. I buy samples before I make the commitment of buying the bottle. I wasn’t impressed with the vanilla intense sample. Good luck man

[@DivineLight5D]

@@peteygreene2500 I know but samples are just a waste of money ...they just sit after testing unless you get a big decant ...all the samples I received especially if the fragrance has bad performance ( most do) I can't wear it to work for a full 8 hours or more .. so they just sit in dust I buy rarely and only 50ml after a lot of research

[@julijanakranjc7296]

Great work, man, i mean it! I mean your reviews are top 3 of all reviewers, i really like your style of doing it, so - great! One important question for you: Can u give me suggestion about 1or 2 cheap(er) alternatives to Chanel allure homme sport (extr.), which is too expensive for my budget (and i am still relat. new to fragrance game, so i still need a lot of help); PLEASE help, i really respect your opinion about fragrances & brands, so.... keep on the really good work!

[@Guinea54]

This is why i think ur one of the best... In my head , and i was about to write this as a comment and ask if its similar to vibrant leather while hearing your take, and as soon as I was about to write it... U mentioned vibrant leather LoL..

[@Kenoji8]

Honestly, Alexandria's Brasilia Prive is all that needs to be talked about in terms of Aventus Clones in my view, lol. Sucks that it is ALWAYS SOLD OUT AND IS ONLY A 30 ML BOTTLE FOR $43, but apart from that...it's niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. :D Their Brasilia Smoky batch is nice, too. I've tried CDNIM, L'Aventure, Pineapple Vintage Intense, and a decant of Aventus (I think it was a recent batch) and Alexandria's offerings blew me away hand over foot out of all of those, scent-wise.

[@ahmmoh7882]

I ordered brazilia smoky still waiting. But what do u think. Is brazilia prive is better actually sold out. Could u advice other alex frag ?

[@Kenoji8]

Brasilia Prive is the best version of Brasilia that you can get from the house, in my view. It has a nice balance of fruits and smoke and is absolutely amazing. The problem with that one is that there are so many high-quality ingredients in it that it is harder to make than the regular Brasilia batches. There are too many Alexandria frags that I could recommend, but to start I will recommend three to you to try: Hafez 1984 Intense (Original), Orange County (Inspiration of Terre d'Hermes EDP), and Arabian Horse (Inspiration of Parfums de Marly Oajan). So that's one good fall / winter frag, one spring / summer frag, and one good year-round frag for you.

Does anyone here have one of the most recent Aventus batches? I’d like to hear your opinion about is, since it is very divided.

[@DQ_Style]

I do have a 2018 batch, it is on the fruity side of things and on my skin lasts 8 hours with average sillage and projection.

[@irondino247]

I have 18B11. Very complex. I never had a scent where I get to experience all three stages throughout the whole day. I get 14hrs easy, not much projection but sillage is atomic. Fruity and smoke with vanilla, man it’s such a good batch.

[@adrian6307]

I have this and I agree with you. It does smell really good, but yes it doesn't last long. Probably wouldn't buy it again. However I've got quite a few complements.

[@Steppenwolf3]

The first Zara release of Vibrant Leather EdT by Jerome Epinette was/is the best Aventus alternative.

[@mohammedalazzawi1980]

For me it has nice longevity +6, not the sillage tho

[@pandorap872]

The thumbnail says it all : ). For cheap Aventus clones, CDNIM is still my choice. Not even interested in the more pricey ones.

[@iJansport]

I used to be the exact same, until I found DUA Fragrances. They make a few clones and their fragrance Poseidon's Elixir 11Z blew my mind. I have 3 of their aventis clones and that one is my favorite, but I also have one that is more of the fruity smell and the other one has that smoke batch scent. But that PE11Z lasts on me for 10-12 hours and projects for about 6-8

[@kristijanradovac43]

People please, stop it already, everybody is getting tired of the Aventus DNA, there are dozens and dozens of fragrances that smell amazing and will make you stand out in the crowd of Aventus and Aventus clones fans. Girls are getting annoyed by it cuz every other dude smells similar. Just an advice 😉 Great video Ashton. Keep it up 💪

[@irondino247]

Not even true. I literally just got raped at work because of Aventus. It’s still king. It’s only in the fragrance community where it’s saturated.

[@justaddlight]

Strange there's no batch code... are they trying to hide a reform? Same thing happened for me with Bentley for Men Intense. Everyone was saying it was a beast, but when I pick up a 2018 bottle, it's just average on me. Sucks man. Plus the cap doesn't click. It's like the car company subcontractors were brainstorming on where to cut corners and decided that the juice wasn't enough. "Let's just go ahead and make shittier caps too. After all, YSL did it, Nautica did it, everyone f**kin' does it, so we're not going to be the ones to break the trend." And while we're at it, why don't we just stick in a crappy atomizer that leaks and.........sorry, lol. Bit of a rant there. Been watching too much Lex. Great review Ash.

whats the best aventus clone i can buy right now? i am new and all the aventus clones are reformulated and weak i didnt had the chance to buy cdnim when it was strong

[@_Frimer_]

I would suggest you try the new Zara Vibrant Leather EDP. It's 120ml and very cheap. 19,90eur in Europe. You can't go wrong with it. If you get a chance to compare the two you'll see how similar it is. All others are way more expensive and in my opinion not worth it. Perhaps Pineapple Vintage Intense can be also a good choice but it's very expensive in comparison with Zara. You can also buy a 13ml bottle of Vibrant Leather if you wanna be on the safe side and wear it for a while to test it out.

[@_Frimer_]

Here's a link to a great review of the new formulation. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKOcXqV9j8mZY7M

@@jasoncooper1019 don't know what batch you got but the new one on my skin last around 6 hours. But as you know sometimes it all comes down to one's body chemistry. If you are having performance issues on your skin try to spray it on your clothes you can pull another 1-2 hours more 😉
