You're really naive if you don't think Creed doesn't have a say on how much the price is going to be in the US. Yes, there's import tax, the middleman fee, boutique fees etc, but they're nowhere near $200 per bottle. Creed knows exactly how much they can gouge their customers.

I've heard so much about creed aventus, I was curious enough to bind buy a 100ml bottle discounted to $315. I love the smell. It's everything described in this video. I'm just disappointed in the longevity. It doesn't seem to last as long as some of my other fragrances that I've paid much less for. For a perfume it seems much less than a cologne. It starts off very strong and fruity, then seems to evaporate. I still got compliments an hour after hitting myself with four sprays. Either I'm coming down with covid-19 and loosing my sense of smell or this bottle is severely diluted.
@carlgranados71065 жыл бұрын
I'm one of those few people that don't like Aventus (and haven't tried the cologne). To me it's to aggressive almost and conservative. I actually prefer Aventus for Her (which I got for my wife) a lot more. However my real favorite in this type scent genre is Marly's Layton which I feel is much more creative, interesting, and original. Aventus seems more for a "stuffed shirt" and Layton seems more for those that like art house movies, that read a lot about a lot of different subjects, and that is always looking to improve themselves. Should also mention that with Green Irish I like but the fact that it reminds me of my Dad and a fragrance he always wore (a long time ago) but I love (what could be flankers of it) Himalaya and Silver Mountain. Great video.

You know what creed needs to do to stop losing business. 1. Go back to their old bottle designs and 120ml size. 2. Reduce the price, make it like 200-225 USD Max for 120ml for their most expensive releases and much less for others world-wide. Under 200 ideally. 3.Take advantage of the batch inconsistency and label each batch as pineapple heavy or more smoky etc. 4. Stick to what they're good at. Make some more great fresh fragrances. 5. Announce all this as a big sale. 6. Profit.

Wow where do we start..Creed Cologne was made because they were losing business to clone houses..So they decided to bring this fragrance out to combat or recoup some investment..Then it hits open market at 435 dollars, why come back with a new fragrance and charge that kind of money. If you wanted your share then price accordingly and watch profits roll in..I disagree with you in that there’s is no originality anymore..Your looking for something unique which unfortunately doesn’t exist..Why because that means only a select audience would be able to purchase due to price..So whether we like it or not clones, inspirations, copies whatever you want to call them are here to stay..It’s the only way the masses can sample unique blends..I don’t hate clone house because if you like the original , buy the original..Now when Adventus Cologne dropped 2 days later Dua’s already had an Inspiration of it out..Again if priced right not 435 we wouldn’t be having this conversation...So I will say Clone houses Serve their purpose especially for discontinued fragrances...Ok enough of my rambling...Thank you for content
