The price is expensive when you consider you can get the real Aventus from discounters for £190 for 100ml, insidious would cost £160 for 100ml. £30 cheaper for a clone is insane. My 2022 batch smells good and actually has pretty good longevity 5-6 hours

There are absolutely no British discounters doing 100ml of genuine Aventus for £190 nowadays man, 50ml maybe. I've been keeping an eye on it on Allbeauty, Seescents and all the rest and it hasn't dropped below £240. The lowest the 50ml tends to get is £160 so Insidious doesn't seem to bad value in this respect.

Why would Insidious cost £160 if it were available in 100ml? It would more than likely be around the £120 mark, if you know anything at all about buying bigger bottles and paying less. All brands charge more per mil for smaller bottles and less for larger bottles. And just because it is a clone does not mean oils and the composition of the fragrance is cheap. Clones can contain pricey and very good quality oils you know.

It’s funny how when everybody talks about CDMI they always talk about the EDT. If you want a great fruity / smoky batch with a fantastic smooth smoked vanilla and leather dry down spend $60 and get the 150ml bottle of CDMI EDP. Hands down my most complimented fragrance. When you get a compliment from a hot banker chic from behind a glass border you know you have on something good.

The UK fragrance groups were the testing ground for this fragrance. I've given this a few wearings and it does not deliver the Aventus scent profile. Seeing the bottle with "Made in UK": how could it be "Vintage Aventus" with all of the IFRA restrictions! You'll see friendly reviews that skirt around the flaws in this clone largely I suspect because a well known UK reviewer aka fragrance weirdo/ Dan Rothschild has released this. Insidious does not move the needle and it's apparent from the first spray. As the fragrance progresses It doesn't get closer to the Aventus DNA. Lasting qualities are also wanting. No smokey birch, none of the vintage notes.
