It’s an ABSOLU no brainer these days to get Armaf instead of creed every single time. Creed has taken the P for too long with how poor the quality has become in terms of bang for your buck. It’s a joke for the price a complete rip off. I had a 2015 aventus and man that stuff was dynamite which I never properly appreciated until i got a 2021 bottle and it would barely last an hour. Until they improve the sillage and longevity of creed I will never buy again.
@@spark556i have ordered a replacement bottle of CDN silliage and milestone (chris has excellent videos on both fragrances) and it appears they are being imported from the middle or far east based on delivery times on multiple differerent websites
@@spark556you can find it on every single fragrance discounter. Are you talking about in stores? Maybe in your area… but I would never recommend buying in stores for retail anyways. You can save a ton of money online.
I bought it for 55 USD, smelled it, loved it, wore it for 3 weeks straight, got a lot of compliments at work, from friends and family. Bought a 2nd bottle as a back up. It's my new signature scent. The opening is so sweet and has this nice citrus to it. The dry down is warm in a refresheing way, sounds very paradoxical, but it's just good. I tried absolu, also a beast of a scent, very very similar to each other, but it lasted 3 hours less than CDNI P1 and it's 550 USD hahahaha
Nothing better than the original but if we are talking about clones, Perfume Parlour’s version smell almost identical to the original Creed I had when I sprayed them tother, one on each wrist, to compare. I was flabbergasted. The Perfume Parlous Avalanche is the only clone I have ever got a compliment for, although I don’t typically buy clones
I loved absolu aventus when i first smelt it until i saw a video (possibly yours chris) on how the PP version was identical. Ordered the PP and it was one of their best clones 1:1 and didn't feel the need to own the original 😊
Looking forward to sample this. I own a bottle of Aventus Absolu, but "sadly" my 2021 bottles of Sauvage Elixir are still getting more compliments than all the other frags in my collection combined. In fact most complimented fragrance i have ever owned, both sexes, all ages.
Thanks Chris Great One As Always ❣️ I only go for clones regarding famous Aventus Realm 😊 I wonder about this one because of it's price! For 95£ and only 55mil that's like cloning Creeds rip off as well to be honest 😊 Unless this fragrance is around at least 60£ mark I'm out! My Armaf CDN Limited Edition is still doing amazing well ❣️ Also recently purchased Borouj Spiritus for 56£ and this fragrance is total Aventus beast on me 😊 Congratulations 🎉 To 100k Dude 😎
Armaf precioux is still £95 for 55mls so it's expensive for a clone, I got a sample of Aventus Absolu and loved it but I ain't buying full bottle yet (£350/400),so I tried Perfume Parlour avalanche absolute and it's really really good 👍
Yeah :) I saw Debenhams site selling it for that price. Just safe money and buy the original if you like the fragrance. I go to Harvey Nicol's in Leeds to try these sought after fragrances and get them when them if they impress me. Clones never smell the same and r just pretenders.
I can't smell caramel on this armaf but I enjoyed the smooth scent compare to limited edition (more lemon). no regret buying it. cdn precieux 1 is all season extrait de parfum.
Hi Chris. I’ve found that Alexandria (uk), are the closest to Aventus Absolu [imo] with their version of - & “inspired by” - Brasilia Cologne. Have you tried this yet? I believe you may have smelled it once on another frag head colleague of yours in one of your previous videos where you were at a fragrance convention in europe somewhere 🤔 Anyway! Although I have not wrapped my nasal senses round Armaf’s interpretation as yet, we’ll see… once I’ve finished watching your video here…? Thanks again, Chris. Great video as always 👍🏼
I've been looking for this one for a while now but can't seem to find a store that sells to Europe. Where did you get yours from if you don't mind me asking?
I have never kept boxes. Just no room. So, I feel a bit miffed when you can tell part of the price is wrapped up in the box. Like, come on ARMAF, stay in your lane and just give us a good deal.
I’m just testing the perfume parlour abslou against the recent decant I have of Creed and I think if I went for the extract instead of the EDP it would be pretty close. The EDP starts to drop off quite quickly in radiating off my skin compared to creed.
Amazing fragrance. My only issue with it is the bottle shape - its really thin and has a habit of falling over. Pay attention in this video and you'll see the bottle literally shaking trying to stay up right
Tell me pls , if I had to choose between: le male le parfum jpg or l'eau blue pour homme issey miyaki or valentuno born in roma intense what will be ure choice ?
you gotta let it macerate for a few months from my experience. Mine performed ok when I first got it but after letting it sit just 1 month it performs like a beast now
Just the other night, I was at a bar when a man walked in, and I instantly knew he was wearing Aventus. I couldn’t help but turn my head-it completely floored me. Despite knowing that Aventus has become somewhat overused, it’s moments like these that remind me why it remains one of the most captivating scents ever created.
This stuff is a woman stopper. When you smell it for the first time, it'll make you wish that you bought 2. I'm definitely going to buy another before it loses the original smell. Cause yall know armaf new batches don't smell the same
Precieux is an Extrait de Parfum concentration that's why. more fragrance oil usually means higher cost. it's worth every penny honestly because it smells really high quality and has massive performance. this lasts like 10 hours plus on me.
@@saulmidgley4113 @saulmidgley4113 I'm obviously talking about Absolu Aventus which this fragrance is a clone of. Absolu Aventus is very much almost 700£. Good luck finding it any cheaper. So you have PDM and Creed fragrances yet you're fussing about 90£ for a really good high quality clone?? Mate you can't be serious lol. 90£ is nothing in comparison. Anyway, to each their own 🤷🏻♂️
Okay I got this parfume this morning( bought it out of curiosity) honestly speaking don't make same mistake as I did....till now I was using creed Aventus and it's completely different story...Aventus is a class of its own there is no such a thing like a best clone. Don't buy. Save more money and buy Aventus.
I just can’t get into creed, . I tried so much times but just don’t like their scents, maybe it’s because I don’t like fruity or zesty scents. I find Tom Ford just superior.
@@jdmb03 so how much is a slightly used Aventus worth if you go to sell it? Nearly $300 right? So what have you lost? And how much is a slightly used $40 clone worth? ZERO…it isn’t even worth the shipping cost to send it somewhere.
100K subs! Let's go! Congrats! 🎉 Thanks for another awesome video. 🔥💯👏

Fact. Creed has gone down the drain. Prices went up their bottles sizes went down … performance sucks.
I rarely use my vintage GIT and aventus
ABSOLOU no brainer......
You can't find Armaf anywhere

When is the Precieux triple aged coming out?👀
I was able to get his for a little under $60 from fragrance buy , it was completely worth it, turned into one of my favorite scents in my collection
this is 94 quid in the UK. what an outrageous markup.
It costs $53 in my country XD
Creed gets hate because they overprice their water.

What is the pp version?
@rainydays2006 its a clone from the perfum palour called avalanche absolou
I just got this in the other day! It’s my first Armaf fragrance and I gotta say I’m pleasantly surprised! Great video Chris 👍
CDNIM Precieux 1 is some good stuff. Compliment getter. Last forever 👍

Good 1 Chris I would rather have 1 high end fragrance than 4 low end fragrances that burn the hell of my face that’s just me!!
one of my first ever fragrances in the rabbit hole was sillage, and it was due to your video. Thanks for that! i still use it all the time and love it
Still on the fence about this one! Great video!

Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
I’d stick with perfume parlour Avalanche absolute , Armaf is £ 95 for 55 ml !
In india its 4500 rs....around 45 euro
I've got mine for approximately 60 EUR in Poland. With time the price should drop to the CDNIM LE level (per bottle, not per ml).
@@Saht87 60 euros would be more realistic 👍
@@Saht87 Where did you buy it from?
£ 47 equivalent here in RO atm. It will probably drop to ~ 30 next year considering this is a 2024 release.
I can't smell caramel on this armaf but I enjoyed the smooth scent compare to limited edition (more lemon). no regret buying it. cdn precieux 1 is all season extrait de parfum.

It’s very good!
@@FRAGMENTALI tried to get hold of Precieux but it wasn't available. I'm glad I tried PP
Could someone explain why precieux is costing around 90 in the uk while in europe you can buy it for 50...
I bought milestone it’s awful I like untold that smells smashing
£95 for 55ml though.
Are they taking the piss?
Like what Armaf done with this and not copy absolu great fragrance as a standalone
FYI I have this and the dua version, this is better quality
Amazing fragrance. My only issue with it is the bottle shape - its really thin and has a habit of falling over. Pay attention in this video and you'll see the bottle literally shaking trying to stay up right
Yes it does fall over easily!
Its THE PRICE that play the KEY ROLE and ARMAF is a winner ONE WAY OR OTHER✌🏻
Congrats on 100k 🎉
Where did you get this. Ordering from their UAE site would cost me almost the same as getting the Aventus.
I was beginning to think I got the wrong fragrance the armaf is not as similar to absolut aventus that some TH-camrs suggest it is
I like poseidon's absolu elixir but its sold out so i use avalance absolu as well both are great
How does it compare to perfume parlour Absolu
The PP is closer to Creed.
Almost 100% when I compared the Creed Original to the PP version.
Tell me pls , if I had to choose between:
le male le parfum jpg or l'eau blue pour homme issey miyaki or valentuno born in roma intense what will be ure choice ?
What’s the occasion your going to wear these any reason they are in your list ? Have you purchased any
Good intro my bruda
i for one will NEVER pay the price for a Creed fragrance
No one’s cares
Same. Creed is not even that good
@@cactu5jack no one cares.
It's excellent
Thank you Chris.
Hawas black review please
I thought u said the perfume parlour version was spot on in an earlier video?
It's not a weak perfume but it's very bloody expensive
Anyone having performance issues with PP?
you gotta let it macerate for a few months from my experience. Mine performed ok when I first got it but after letting it sit just 1 month it performs like a beast now
Why’s it so expensive in the uk £94:99 for 50ml just been to America it’s $50ish in Walmart lol
For $55 can't be beat

How do you know it was Aventus instead of one of the thoushand clones?
@@masacrador1He simply can't..
You can smell the quality. No clone can truly capture that, even if they sometimes come very close.
@@masacrador1 lol it's so easy to spot a clone, they all tried, had so many years, and they still can't touch the OG
Lots of videos hyping this up on TH-cam... then i google it and read many mediocre reviews, how you know who to believe these days
Try a sample first
Nice watch.
Armaf is more exciting than Creed.
Huge congratulations on joining the 100K subscribers club. Well done, Chris. 👏🏻
Do you think the Armaf has naturals in or is all synthetic? Strange thinking of an Armaf with naturals!
this armaf is with naturals compare to other cdnim except limited edition. smooth scent because extrait de parfum and I love it.
This stuff is a woman stopper. When you smell it for the first time, it'll make you wish that you bought 2. I'm definitely going to buy another before it loses the original smell. Cause yall know armaf new batches don't smell the same
Facts! I have 1 bottle but now I'm thinking I need at least one more. I like it that much and I have the actual Absolu Aventus lol
Creed is greed!!!😮
Floral 🤔🤔🤔
£95 quid nah id rather pay 250 and get the real deal...
Creed is my favorite house. Not a fan of clones.
£90 inthe uk for 55ml. Just buy the perfume parlour instsad 😂
That's why first impression videos are worthless.
But that is £90 for a clone lol not cheap really ,, PP do a great copy tbh
