I'm not overly concerned about the concept of 'alternatives'. What's annoying me about Aventus and always will, is that it's impossible to say, 'this is a consistent fragrance'. I can wear one batch and it'll smell great, and I'll wear another that will literally just smell like iso-e-super on the drydown. If they can get their bloody house in order, it would be fine.

Me personally, I love Aventus. I almost hate that I do, but I do. Its expensive. YES, IT IS EXPENSIVE. Has there been a weakening of the scent, it very much seems like it yes. Did Creed do some wrong things? Yey they did. But, I LOVE AVENTUS. Even if nobodg compliments me, my nose loves it. So, two days ago, I went and bought a 6.7 ounce bottle of mont blanc explorer. I did this to crave my taste and love for Aventus. Well, at first spray I felt satisfied. But a few hours later, I smell a Playdo scent on my arms. I realized something, I need to stop trying to replace something that cannot ever be replaced. Like nate dogg said, “they can come closer than close, original they never will be. “. So, I am going back to the house of love. I bought a big bottle of it and will let it sit and form. I like that its losing its popularity. A scent that is so unpredictable because it is so natural, yes, I’ll take that.

I've been lucky with all my Aventus bottles. I've just picked up a 21S01 batch from flannels and it's actually very nice, not as good as my 18K11 batch however that was a ambergris/vanilla monster. This one is more Apple strong than anything which I like, I've had 19y11 and 19y01n and both were great pineapple heavy, with a creamy sweet dry down. So for me overall the batch issue hasn't been an issue for me at all, the complete opposite really I've enjoyed having different kinds of Aventus. Do I wish I could get 18K11 again at a consistent rate? Yes in some ways. But I'd probably get fed up with it

For me, Creed Aventus is a timeless fragrance. I like the smell and on me it has good performance and projection. The problem with Aventus is the douches who wear it. In my office, they have slicked back hair, suits two sizes too small, and they let everyone know that they’re wear “Aventus 2012” and they consistently remind the other guys that the newer reformations are no good. I guess that’s the true magic of Aventus, because when I wear it, I slick my hair back, put on a $2000 suit (that the salesman told me “that’s how it’s supposed to fit”)and walk around the office like I know everything, unapologetically. It’s basically Drakkar Noir.

Allow me to share my experience which, I suspect is the same as a lot of other people on here. I was stupid enough to buy Aventus on ebay, only once and thankfully got a full refund. I then purchased some from the Creed website and can still recall the anticipation and excitement when I unboxed this gem. My excitement was short lived sadly, as longevity was non existent. I became aware of the groups on FB devoted to Aventus and discovered that my batch number which ended with "N" was actually a re-formulation. So I had been misled. I got in touch with Creed and pointed this out, and they agreed to take the bottle back for testing. Eventually, I got a response. They said the batch was fine but, as a gesture of goodwill they replaced it with a new bottle. After a month or so of agonising over this, I contacted Creed again and asked for a refund as my replacement bottle was still "cellophane intact". To their credit, Creed took the bottle back and I got a full refund. I liken the whole Aventus "obsession" to badge snobbery with cars. Yes, the presentation was great - I got a lovely box with gold tinsel and 2 samples. But the quality wasn't there. I've since experimented with a few clones and find the Armaf offerings to be far superior. Of course, the hardened Aventus community will laugh at this but to the vast majority to whom value for money is a real concept, the clones are a no-brainer. Great fragrance and great longevity. I don't miss the gold tinsel. This review is great and is made all the more valid by the experience of the author who actually worked for Creed. Please do the 40 min clip mate, it will be just as good if not better than the other reviews you've done. Thanks very much, to think I used to watch the clapping guy in the white suit.......

The DNA of Aventus will probably be one that'll be around for decades. I think people in general would be willing to live with the batch variations, but that was pretty indicative of poor QC. But what really did it in was the ever increasing price. When they're retailing $400 for 100ml, it was bound to invite some very dedicated cloners that can even match the better batches.

Performance price availability all that comes into play but smell is the number 1 priority and Aventus smells the best. Any batch I’ve tried. Smells better than all the PV clones.

The hype is real. I remember smelling Aventus for the first time and I haven’t experienced a fragrance before or since which makes such a first impression. It’s verging on narcotic-like. What I learned from owning a bottle is that it isn’t really the fragrance for me. I will still spray a piece of my arm and sit on the toilet inhaling the magic fumes but rarely do I feel inclined to wear it in any social setting. I don’t really understand why. Maybe it’s a bit like meeting the most beautiful woman you have ever seen and realising that even if you had a chance you would never have anything to talk about. I have the inverse relationship with Platinum Egoiste. A fragrance that never set my heart racing and yet it fell on my lap and wormed its way into my life to the point where I found myself reaching blindly for it every other day. I still don’t know if I could write a love letter to Platinum Egoiste but I feel inclined to declare that its love for me is not unrequited.

I will never buy another bottle of Aventus again. It’s watered down and the price keeps going up.

I can't stand most colognes and perfumes. I'm afraid to say that I've been hoarding this bottle and only have a good several more moments with it. Tom Ford Tuscan leather currently competes (beats it honestly) in projection, hearty notes, and longetivity but misses any kind of playfulness. That one is great but all business. My two go-tos. Not gonna be a repeat customer of Aventus. Have had some samples in the last two years from places like Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus and they simply don't compare.

If there is a demand in the market for the Aventus DNA at a far more affordable price, someone will meet that demand. Creed Aventus in my 2020 batch is inferior to my 2016 batch, which performs for hours more than the newer one. The 2020 batch is also underperforming when compared to CDNIM. It's that simple.

I don't know Aventus. They should have a consistent product, it's what 400.00 a bottle? Coke changed their formula knowing it would spark a great outcry. They called it "New Coke" knowing ahead of time they could exaggerate the resistance, even though the resistance was great. They said it was an adjustment to compete with Pepsi, but they did it so they could slightly rebrand their product by calling it Coke "Classic" without looking pretentious, and get more sales. I'm no perfume expert, and I buy with no thought of what is popular. It is disappointing when you like a fragrance to find out it has been changed, but Creed to me has always been a little too pretentious, if only in their price. What happened to being timeless? Do the honeysuckles change their fragrance every Spring? No.
