I had the original one until it fell to the floor. Then I replaced it with Club de Nuit. I get a lot more compliments and the durability is phenomenal .
Quick question. What year was your cdnim made in? It should say it on the sticker at the bottom of your box. The reason I ask is bc I just bought one that was made in 2021 and it performs awfully. The scent is amazing but it doesn’t last or project.
parfums vintage does it best. Emperor edp comes very close to the original, and if you catch it on sale it's not a terrible price. It's arguable if you'd be better off buying a 50ml decant of a 2019 batch vs. the clone, but there's no denying it works.
I tried PVI and it was disgusting. It literally smelled like pineapple bugspray🤢 Gave me an instant headache and had to get back in the shower and scrub where I sprayed 15-20 times to get the smell off of me, so the only thing I can say is that it's strong. Nothing compares to Aventus, nothing.
I think a lot of your viewers know about Creed clones, so maybe drop some vids on clones for other niche houses, like Xerjoff, Amouage, Roja, PDM, etc. I’d love to see some content like that.
Have you tried the armaf club de nuit intense perfume oil ? It doesn’t have that harsh smell like the spray fragrance. To me the oil smells more like aventus as soon as you apply it on and it lasts for at least 12-15 hours and lasts like you just put it on.
That's not so hard. Closest clones are Red Temptation and Night pour Homme V of Zara. The best quality is Amber Oud Rouge and the most popular is Cloud..
@@rubski-ds9yc red sapphire have nothing to do with BR 540, i have it right front of me.. Bought for my wife and its really sugary to sweet and youthful type of fragrance.. Bad decision
In my personal opinion.. Afnan Not Only Intense & Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man Limited Edition are the better choices. You're gonna save a lot of money, you'll smell to die for and both last wayyyyy longer than Aventus, too!
I’ve had Reyanne Tradition Pure for years. It’s a decent clone and in the air multiple people (who have the real Aventus) have mistaken it for the real thing so for the price it’s worth a try if you’ve never tried Aventus and just want to know what ballpark the scent is in.
I can splurge for Aventus, but all of these clones with better performance, I have no desire to do it, yet I kinda feel like I have an obligation to, just to experience it. I have a hard time moving from CDNI, as far as the clones go. It's so strong..you can wear it when it is cold and it wont die. The smokey vibe wont make you smell out of season in the winter and performance is just beast.
@@Nish_M Definately enjoy that my friend! Personally, I can't afford Aventus, Hacivat, Parfums Vintage...etc. However, I do own one that's quite similar and that's Mancera Cedrat Boise. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a different and high quality twist on the Aventus DNA.
Victor No9 does it for me in price, projection, sillage you name it. I know mileage differs on everyone but boy does it get me stopped by strangers! I'd love to try all mentioned in this video but I'm happy with Perfumer's Choice version.
I’m surprised you didn’t have explorer here, since you crowned it your favourite aventus style fragrance in your last aventus clone video. I still love it, one of the easiest dumb reach fragrances I’ve ever owned.
Not sure how old you are, but I remember in the 90's, if you couldn't afford the expensive stuff, there was a line called Designer Imposters that was all clones.
Hey Ash, I have become a regular viewer of you videos and can thank you for almost all of my collection. I'm hoping you review the newly released Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense. I have recently picked this up and am a big fan.
Gotta say I just got my bottle of Club De Nuit Intense and my bottle of Tres Nuit in the mail 2 days ago and I gotta say I really prefer the Tres Nuit over Club De Nuit!
I agree, this should become a type of series. Personally, I don't have the money to spend on Creed, PDM,...I recently got CDNIM pure parfum. When i first got it, I sprayed in on my wrist to test it out...just 2 sprays. Went to the supermarket and straight away got a question from a stranger on what perfume I was wearing. So there is that. Personally, I think it is by far my best perfume and I do have some stuff that makes it to the compliment puller lists on youtube.
I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the multiple and awesome Aventus clones from Dua Fragrances. The clones go by the name Poseiden, and there are many options, and they are amazing!
can anyone comment on how well pineapple vintage stacks up against scentual obsessions' king of kings? i own kings, and the pineapple punches you in the face from jump, and the performance is fantastic (its an extrait formula).
i bought clubdenuit and regretted it, strong lemon wipe cleaner, sure the dry down is nice and i did get used to the opening but first impressions matter, now I'm scared people think i smell like chemicals
In my opinion, Aventus is ok but massively overhyped. The only two that really stand out for me are Silver Mountain Water and my personal favourite, Green Irish Tweed.
Your review on Emperor Extrait was spot on and I'm surprised that you didn't choose this in this video. I agree that it's better than 2018 Aventus. Emperor Galerius released last year captures all of the Aventus defining notes th-cam.com/video/ZrF-A7TnfRI/w-d-xo.html

Have CDIM, AHLA and IP2...as well as decants of Aventus. That said, I have purchased 50 ml bottles of PV King, PVI and Emperor, all three are of extreme quality and well worth the extra $$$. Emperor extrait will be my next purchase.
Just get L'aventure by Al-Haramain CDNIM is the birchy woodier batch of aventus while L’aventure is the less smoky batch of Aventus. L’aventure has that fruity pebbles vibe with a touch of smokiness.
New subscriber. Thx for the aventus clone input. Im late to the show. Just got into fragrances. Really love the cdnim edt&edp also went with ur suggestion on a layer with rave now for the pineapple opening. And just ordered Al haramian + supremacy silver. Have a feeling im gona be going down a rat hole soon:)
Club de Nuit Intense vs Limited Edition. You did mention the LE was smoother and "a different fragrance". Which one would be the better clone for Aventus?
Yes! I sold my CDNIM after I tried supremacy not only intense. It's also stupidly cheap in my country, almost same price as CDNIM. Fantastic presentation and juice and in the air it's basically Aventus
What's the difference between insurrection 2 pure and insurrection 2 sport? I've heard they are both clones of aventus. I had a sample of creed aventus cologne about a month ago and that's what I'm trying to find. From what I was told it wasn't creed aventus but creed aventus cologne which was the newer one? Thanks for any help
Got a sample of Pineapple Vintage classic and it is not that bad. Took a while to get used to it. Not sure which Aventus batch I smelled in oil form a few yrs ago, but it was one that was heavy on the citrus to make it nauseating. Don't like the Club de Nuit Intense. Explorer ain't bad. I'd dig it.
I remember first time I tried the armaf a friend give it to me I tried it it was like meh in the first 10 minutes then its was like daaaam this is great didn't even know creed that time and what shocked me more is that it lasts like reaaaaly lasts and projects much better then creed
Bruh, I'm already on that "AVANT" by Maison Alhambra under Lattafa. More of the smoke and pepper, same juicy pineapple, pushes past the 8 hour mark on my shirts.
I'm 39 and when we were kids clones were called "designer imposters". I'm pretty sure it was the name of a brand too...as opposed to the name of a "house".
Cremo No. 9 Bergamot & Musk is a honorable mention the opening is very dry or peppery But the dry down is amazing smells very close to Aventus on that part
Your reviews and info are always spot on, but don't you think that this topic is a bit overplayed? I mean, there is reference to Aventus nearly once a month and (at least personally); I find it tired.
Hey Ashton, Amazon has the insurrection II pure le parfum for about $40. I recall you had a sample when you reviewed the sport version. Packaging is different and the bottle looks iridescent. Smells almost the same and last just a bit longer.
I finally had thr chance to smell Aventud and Explorer side by side and I have to say, almost identical. I don’t see a reason why you should buy Aventus if price is a factor.
I own both creed Aventus and cdni edt. I have since sold the cdni because I feel like it cheapens the scent of the original. Also not as refined and same quality as creed Aventus.
This could and should be a series! Just combos of different clones of marginally expensive colognes and which are best

i want to try cdni parfum... but i've got afnan not only intense and this one is a beast of a frag
Afnan Supremacy Silver is the best clone. I prefer it over CDNIM any day.
I can splurge for Aventus, but all of these clones with better performance, I have no desire to do it, yet I kinda feel like I have an obligation to, just to experience it.

Can you do a video on colognes that repel mosquitoes, because it's going to be spring/summer soon, and we have alot flying insects in Florida?

So which one is the best then?
What about Nautica Voyage 83
Black XS L'Exces for Him by Paco Rabanne is another smoky-pineapple fragrance.
I own both creed Aventus and cdni edt. I have since sold the cdni because I feel like it cheapens the scent of the original. Also not as refined and same quality as creed Aventus.
To this day my favorite fragrance, with or without pineapple, is Hugo Boss Elements Aqua.
