Armaf CDNIM Limited Edition Parfum is smoky and musky in a classy way, so well balanced! Smells masculine and unique! I’ve received tons of compliments wearing that…believe me, the majority of people don’t wear colognes and just a small percentage of those who wear knows Aventus.
I find that the “majority of people don’t wear colognes line is a little bit of a cop out bc we don’t want to admit everyone and their mom is buying aventus clones
Totally 100% agree "majority people don't wear colognes" and IMO its about 95% of people don't wear colognes daily. In my experience I don't see people could recognise the name of perfume I wear even I got compliment. They only know between smell nice or not.
Ya true. I respect others choice. No matter I try other fragrance, CDNIM LE Parfum/PP is the one that I always love, the smoky, musky, citrus is the key for unique scent for masculine fragrance. Because of the unique smell of it, people easily recogniz the smell. Eventhough I wear YSL Y Intense, I still layering CDNIM on my shirt so I can smell the smokiness, musky and citrusy of it. Niceee Other than that Cedrat Boise Intense layering with D&G The One (got ginger prominent note). Like the smell.
Off topic, but THANK YOU for your mailing list! Thanks to your email, I scored a giant bottle of my favorite discontinued fragrance at a great price! Mugler Cologne Come Together! I bought it right away, and haven't seen it for sale since! Back on topic: I find it isn't redundant to have multiple Aventus clones. The variations are part of the fun. I choose what I am going to wear based on my mood, and I wear my real Aventus for special occasions!
I'm fine with the Creed Aventus dupes/clones CDNIM Pure Parfum 💥 CDNIM EDT 💥 CDNIM Pure oil 💥 L'aventure Intense 💥 Rasasi Lui Zebra 💥 Supremacy Not Only Intense 💥 R U Serious 💥 Thinking about pulling the trigger on CDNIM limited edition. Has anyone heard about or tried Acoustic by Le Gazelle. It suppose to be a good Creed Aventus dupe/clone.
I love al haramain l’aventure intense. It performs great. I remember the video you made on best performing aventus clones. I just picked up creed aventus in the perfume oil. I’m excited to wear that one.
@@jajiolatunde9655 I don't have the intense, I have the regular one, one of the first frags I bought when I started this hobby last year, even though it is the regular, it is a strong performer, I use it mainly as a gym scent, I spray my gym shirt, throw it in my backpack, and 12 hours later, it's pushing out nicely. I think L'Aventure, is very "fruity" the citrus is the most predominant thing I smell, there is smoke in there, but barely noticeable, I sometimes detect it, after a long dry down, and only after my body has heated up. No pineapple, It is a good frag, but for a few bucks more you might as well get the intense. I also have Qaed Al Fursan, I have layered this onto it, gives it a pineapple, and little more wood/smoke, which I like. people mention that older Creed Aventus batches had more pineapple and smoke, so I imagine its similar to this layering.
I have L'aventure OG and L'aventure Intense. The OG is very weak. Does not last long at all. Maybe an hour then it quickly fades away. It smells good though. I heard that it takes 6 months or longer to improve and perform. The intense version performs very well. Last 7+ hours on skin and longer on clothes. It also smells good. Both have a "lemony" vibe smell. Layer it with Rave Now 🍍/or Qaud Al Fursan 🍍 or Swiss Arabian Shawq 🍍 and you will be smelling amazing. 👍
Armaf CDNIM edt is still my favorite. I prefer the edt over the EDP, Parfum and the LE versions because it is the loudest and last just as long as the others. Also the dry down is fantastic. Now to my nose the LE and the edt smell identical in the dry down but I still give the edt the edge.
@@duhanavc6773 EDT last all day long. It is very loud for the first hour or so then it calms down. It is still beast mode for the rest of the day though.
@@HardRockinJohnny Good to know. Thanks for your honest response/feedback. I can't wait to get my hands on it and test it out myself. I also ordered a bottle of Acoustic by Le Gazelle. It supposed to be a good dupe/clone of Creed Aventus. Have you heard about it?
So I recently purchased AFNAN Supremacy Not Only Intense and it's a monster - The opening is on a par with someone turning up to tarmac your drive way - all day banger once it calms down imagine Mont Blanc explorer with an attitude.... on steroids.
I also bought afnan noi, but i dont smell it after couple hours, am i noseblind, but with armaf edp, parfum i can smell myself, armaf le not so great in projection
My first Aventus clone was actually Rebel by Pete and Pedro. I recently acquired Montblanc Explorer. Not interested in any CDNIM except for that limited edition one but it's hard to find
@RossBayCult I like it! There's a mild spiciness to it that lends itself well to the DNA and sets it apart a little bit. Just as versatile as the OG, too and decent performance, especially on clothes
I also bought afnan noi, but i dont smell it after couple hours, am i noseblind, but with armaf edp, parfum i can smell myself, armaf le not so great in projection
I bought the CDNIM EDT and for a few months it was the best cologne I had. After the harsh opening it became a sweet and smoky fragrance that everyone loved. Then the sweetness disappeared and I was left with that lemon Pledge scent. I bought the Limited Edition Parfum and that one never gave me the sweetness that I got from the first few months of the EDT. I hope it works out for others.
And dont fall for that limited edition marketing ploy. Limited edition strictly refers to the packaging. The regular parfum (minus the fancy presentation gives you 150ml for a cheaper price). Armaf even explains it in their advertising explaining that the limited edition is a better option if being purchased for a gift.
@@duhanavc6773 i get about 7-8 hours of projection with the edt. you are still going to smell it on your clothes afterwards. i bought mine a few weeks ago. definitely recommend it.

Just picked up Laventure Intense. Soooooo disappointed in the performance. It’s not noseblindness either because I’ve sprayed it on clothes and came back. I’d say 5 to 6 hours max. I’ve also had my girlfriend smell me and she can’t pick it up. I have CDNIM edp and it has eternal longevity on clothes.
Wow.. I get 7+ hours and longer on clothes when I wear L'aventure intense. Now, L'aventure OG is very weak. Last a hour and then quickly fades away. They both smell good though.
Hello, could you make a video on Gisada Ambassador OG? I just got it and it is one of the best things I have ever smelt and got insane compliments even in just a few days.
I blind bought CDNIM a while back but I couldn’t got used to that lemon pledge opening and I hated the bottle. Sold it and bought the montblanc explorer. I know it’s weaker but the opening is smoother. And I like the bottle more.
I own Rave Now and it smells like a nice juicy pineapple mixed with burnt rubber. Not a good combination but cant really complain for the price. Maceration does help for it tho as it now only has a vague rubber smell after you let it settle.
@@irfanhakimi2721 I would honestly not recommend Rave Now even as cheap as it is. There are far better options for you money. If you want aventus clone go with the limited or the cdnim intense parfum if you cant get the limited. If you just want a good pineapple cologne in general go with Authenticity Perfumes - Summer Vibez Parfum. Not sure if they still sell it tho as it is limited edition but something worth keeping an eye on to see if they bring it back in stock, fragrance vids usually start ranting about it again. Also to note the SV colognes in general are outstanding performers as far as I am told.
Explorer to me isn't very similar to Aventus to my nose. Sure it's in the same general genre but not a clone or that similar. It's nice but to me a bit boring so I gave mine to a friend.
Can you please review CHOPARD colognes for man ? I been searching on youtube but not many youtubers is posting anything regarding this designer brand . Thnank you in advance !
The projectivity is crap for this product....it's too expensive for a clone...better of just buying original....no other clones sell for more than 60 pounds... And try emailing vintage, bunch of amateurs, rude and unresponsive
Is the Mont Blanc Explorer airy I’m just asking bc the only one I’m really familiar with is legend red and it has this airy thing going on it’s quite amazing
@moneyparhar i disagree. The fragrances are way better than anything on this list. The quality and performance is much better! Also still way cheaper than Aventus.
Parfums vintage is over priced...you are suppose to buy clones at max 60 dollars not over 100 dollars... The projection and longevity is also a problem with that brand.... Also try emailing them, takes a few days for them to get back and they are rude
Intense blows the original out the water. The intense version last 7+ hours on skin and longer on clothes. The original only last a hour and then quickly fades away.
@@GucciButNotGuilty I'm gonna have to try that one. I've heard mixed reviews but honestly never know until it's tested personally. Thank you for the recommendation cause I completely forgot about that one.
Rave now black is similar to the old and discontinued Zara Gold? In fragrantica people says that Zara Gold is similar to Paco Black XS, but i disagree. Zara Gold is bright and can be used in the summer. Paco doesn't.
Lataffa Al dur Al Maknoon is trash. All you smell is smoke. Plus it does not perform. I have to layer it with Rave Now or Qaud Al Fursan or Swiss Arabian Shawq everytime I wear it.
On the contrary, who ever considering buying missoni wave or CK summer daze - please never do it. Both of them have terrible projection and longevity (literally 30min scent). Please don't do my mistake...it doesn't matter how good both of them smell, if they dont last and don't project, it's not worth it. Peace
Missoni wave is actually decent off my skin although i go heavy on the sprays... probably why I used the last of my bottle up a few weeks ago and had only bought it last year as it's a good cheapie for the gym, work and warmer weather
PLEASE try Parfums Vintage Pineapple Vintage Intense. It's the ABSOLUTE BEST clone of Creed Aventus. It's spot on all except the pineapple is amped up. I don't understand why Pineapple Vintage Intense never gets brought up in these Aventus clone wars. Trust me try it.
I just got PVI two days ago. It's more tart than pineapple. I read that if you place it in the fridge for a day, that goes away. I hope so. I'm disappointed, especially for the price.
I also bought afnan noi, but i dont smell it after couple hours, am i noseblind, but with armaf edp, parfum i can smell myself, armaf le not so great in projection
One other you can still buy in 2023 is Gutteridge Dal 1878 (2013). From Italy. Not as powerful and not the longevity as other "inspirations". But, this is one for a collector. The quality is good for the price you pay for. It is very difficult to find. Lighter and slightly spicier version. Not a winter scent. A Twist. 🙂
I really envy you guys who can buy your fragrance at discounters. Where I live discounters sell fake fragrance. The packaging looks 95 percent similar but the juice is 10 percent not more.
Let me ask you a question. I tried Aventus but was not that impressed with it but the hype got me trying different clones and versions of it including Armaf Club Nuit. I finally found one by Alexandria called Brasilia Prive that is based on the original formulation I finally understood the hype and loved it. Anyway I'm looking for a new bottle but prefer not to buy Alexandria because they have gotten too expensive so my question is is there another clone of the original formulation code 11z01?
Laventure intense is absolutely terrible. Smells like pepper and lemon, and compared to the other clones it’s just far off. Bought it on your recommendation. I own CDNIM EDP and it’s GREAT, it’s like the newer batches of aventus. More fruity but in a masculine way. It’s only like $50 for 200 ml and I’ve actually compared it to aventus, also ALT No 26 is also another great clone I’ve compared that directly to aventus as well.
man- you recommended that afnan 9 pm...and I bought it from fragrancbuy last week..it is terrible, it is hardly last on my skin and clothes just an hour.....very disappointed...
I also bought afnan noi, but i dont smell it after couple hours, am i noseblind, but with armaf edp, parfum i can smell myself, armaf le not so great in projection, afnan 9 pm last me 1 days on skin, 2-3 days on cloth until u washed, but its super sweet, dont oversprayed or ull dizzy
Tbh with their popularity, you might actually get away with smelling more unique with a designer flanker or even main fragrance now a-days. I have a few aventus clones, but I’ve found that its pretty saturated out there
@@waynemorton6120 never got much what is the diff between that and the silver one.. sounds like both are hybrid.. both hacivat.. but silver is a lot cheaper
@@ismael85 I haven't tried the Silver one so I couldn't really say. Not only intense to my nose starts very much in the vein of an Aventus clone but on the dry down it is Hacivat all day long and I get very little Aventus other than the initial notes. I am tempted to try the Silver at some point as I really like this variant and it's going to be a solid winter fragrance for me.
@@waynemorton6120 I see I had explorer and CDNIM edt... and the smell of explorer is way better.. but CDNIM lasted very long.. but it was just lemon and smoke.. I tried just 1 spray of laventure and 1 of select.. both smell nice.. better than CDNIM explorer i sold because i could not smell after 3 hous.. and cdnim i sold also because it was just lemmon.. i wanted more.. so i might be after some new clone of it..
@@ismael85 I would go with L'Aventure if your looking for a very close Aventus clone. It's a really good fragrance. Great performance, lasts a lot longer than the actual Creed Aventus. Well worth the money.
Why doesn't any of these "expert" fragrance TH-camrs mention Dossier's version of Aventus ? It is literally the closest that I've smelled to modern Aventus over every single one in this video and a couple more..
Man, I have to disagree with CDNIM limited edition. I went to great lengths to source a bottle from a reputable seller, paid the extra it costs over the EDT and was sorely disappointed. They're just synthetic bombs. Sure there's a similarity, but the quality, even with the limited edition, comes nowhere near Aventus. And I don't even own a vintage Aventus. My 2022 bottle is night and day ahead of CDNIM LE. I'll never buy a clone ever again - at least not an Armaf clone. Gross. What I will recommend however, is The Orchid Man by Frapin. Similar vibes, not a clone. But so, so good. So well made. Not a powerhouse, but beautiful for a few hours. And close enough to that DNA that people love so much.
Why must the CDNIM bottle be so heavy?!!! I travel often and every ounce of weight matters when it comes to luggage. It's unnecessary to make a bottle so thick and heavy. The 200 ml must weigh like 1 kilo, which is very heavy!
I find it hard to believe reviewers who get a cut of the profits. I got burned so many times believing hype. They closed the Macy's that was close as well as the mall where you could actually smell and test a scent. I'm so careful now v
JPG le male, ultra male, parfum all got prominent oriental scent. Smells like old Chinese woman's talcum powder 500yrs back maybe more. Reviewer always said smells good, sexy, sweet, vanilla at the end the prominent smells is oriental. My late great grandmother has the oriental scent of talcum powder 😅 Fortunately I buy decant for it and I don't like the prominent note, oriental. Why most woman choose Le Beau instead of ultra male/le male/parfum, because Le Beau got coconut prominent scent follow by vanilla and its fresh. Same to D&G The One, nobody said about prominent ginger note! Review said smells sexy, whatever but never said about prominent note. The ginger is prominent note in the D&G. Kinda soothing ginger. Not bad, I like it. Fragrance is subjective matter. Anybody can like whatever they smell good, I respect that & don't get me wrong. However, please don't advice people for blind buy & please state prominent smells of the fragrance. Other than performance/spl, prominent note/smell is the most important information in fragrance review.
Armaf CDNIM Limited Edition Parfum is smoky and musky in a classy way, so well balanced! Smells masculine and unique! I’ve received tons of compliments wearing that…believe me, the majority of people don’t wear colognes and just a small percentage of those who wear knows Aventus.
Totally agree. When I first got it, it smelled like lemon fruit loops, but after a few months of maturation... gold.

👍 Agreed!!
Pineapple vintage is closer than all of these
Not sure. I just got PVI and I'm letting it sit in the fridge. It's very tart right now. Very disappointed.
marina de bourbon le prince is the best clone and its very cheap try it you wont regret i promise
How's performance?
I guessed about three of these correct before I even watched the video lol 😂 And my scent of the day is Lacoste match point EDP 💯🔥
Cheapest will be Lattafa Al Dur Al Maknoon Silver. Lasting is like 5 to 6 hours. Rave now black is Paco XS clone.
Rave now black is similar to the old and discontinued Zara Gold? In fragrantica people says that Zara Gold is similar to Paco Black XS, but i disagree. Zara Gold is bright and can be used in the summer. Paco doesn't.
Lataffa Al dur Al Maknoon is trash. All you smell is smoke. Plus it does not perform. I have to layer it with Rave Now or Qaud Al Fursan or Swiss Arabian Shawq everytime I wear it.
On the contrary, who ever considering buying missoni wave or CK summer daze - please never do it. Both of them have terrible projection and longevity (literally 30min scent). Please don't do my mistake...it doesn't matter how good both of them smell, if they dont last and don't project, it's not worth it. Peace
Missoni wave is actually decent off my skin although i go heavy on the sprays... probably why I used the last of my bottle up a few weeks ago and had only bought it last year as it's a good cheapie for the gym, work and warmer weather
Everybody’s skin reacts differently. Idk how many times this needs to be explained
You only smelled Wave for 30 minutes? Lol.
PLEASE try Parfums Vintage Pineapple Vintage Intense. It's the ABSOLUTE BEST clone of Creed Aventus. It's spot on all except the pineapple is amped up. I don't understand why Pineapple Vintage Intense never gets brought up in these Aventus clone wars. Trust me try it.
I just got PVI two days ago. It's more tart than pineapple. I read that if you place it in the fridge for a day, that goes away. I hope so. I'm disappointed, especially for the price.
how about afnan noi?
I also bought afnan noi, but i dont smell it after couple hours, am i noseblind, but with armaf edp, parfum i can smell myself, armaf le not so great in projection
One other you can still buy in 2023 is Gutteridge Dal 1878 (2013). From Italy. Not as powerful and not the longevity as other "inspirations". But, this is one for a collector. The quality is good for the price you pay for. It is very difficult to find. Lighter and slightly spicier version. Not a winter scent. A Twist. 🙂
I really envy you guys who can buy your fragrance at discounters. Where I live discounters sell fake fragrance. The packaging looks 95 percent similar but the juice is 10 percent not more.
I am always afraid of this. That is why I most times pay more at official retailers. But some scents I have to order elsewhere and gamble.
Where do you live?
you probably didnt tried it but rasasi zebra is closest to avents amoung all the clones
@markoknezevic8214
I like Rasasi Lui Zebra too. It smell very similar to the new batches of Creed Aventus. It performs fairly well too.
Let me ask you a question. I tried Aventus but was not that impressed with it but the hype got me trying different clones and versions of it including Armaf Club Nuit. I finally found one by Alexandria called Brasilia Prive that is based on the original formulation I finally understood the hype and loved it. Anyway I'm looking for a new bottle but prefer not to buy Alexandria because they have gotten too expensive so my question is is there another clone of the original formulation code 11z01?
So you like the clone by Alexandria than the actual Original Creed Aventus 🤔
@@faultless18Aventus is a pale comparison to what it once was sadly
Laventure intense is absolutely terrible. Smells like pepper and lemon, and compared to the other clones it’s just far off. Bought it on your recommendation.
I own CDNIM EDP and it’s GREAT, it’s like the newer batches of aventus. More fruity but in a masculine way. It’s only like $50 for 200 ml and I’ve actually compared it to aventus, also ALT No 26 is also another great clone I’ve compared that directly to aventus as well.
Mont Blanc is so far ahead of CDN
man- you recommended that afnan 9 pm...and I bought it from fragrancbuy last week..it is terrible, it is hardly last on my skin and clothes just an hour.....very disappointed...
Good to know. I'm was thinking about pulling the trigger on that fragrance.
@@jaybowie6529 Thanks but detour Noir by haramain and Hawas are great. Thanks
I also bought afnan noi, but i dont smell it after couple hours, am i noseblind, but with armaf edp, parfum i can smell myself, armaf le not so great in projection, afnan 9 pm last me 1 days on skin, 2-3 days on cloth until u washed, but its super sweet, dont oversprayed or ull dizzy
Tbh with their popularity, you might actually get away with smelling more unique with a designer flanker or even main fragrance now a-days. I have a few aventus clones, but I’ve found that its pretty saturated out there
It’s crazy how subjective this topic is… 😮
Where is Afnan supremacy not only intense ??
That's more of a hybrid rather than a straight clone. Lovely fragrance, purchased it a few weeks ago.
@@waynemorton6120 never got much what is the diff between that and the silver one.. sounds like both are hybrid.. both hacivat.. but silver is a lot cheaper
@@ismael85 I haven't tried the Silver one so I couldn't really say. Not only intense to my nose starts very much in the vein of an Aventus clone but on the dry down it is Hacivat all day long and I get very little Aventus other than the initial notes.
I am tempted to try the Silver at some point as I really like this variant and it's going to be a solid winter fragrance for me.
@@waynemorton6120 I see
I had explorer and CDNIM edt... and the smell of explorer is way better..
but CDNIM lasted very long.. but it was just lemon and smoke..
I tried just 1 spray of laventure and 1 of select.. both smell nice.. better than CDNIM
explorer i sold because i could not smell after 3 hous.. and cdnim i sold also because it was just lemmon.. i wanted more..
so i might be after some new clone of it..
@@ismael85 I would go with L'Aventure if your looking for a very close Aventus clone. It's a really good fragrance. Great performance, lasts a lot longer than the actual Creed Aventus. Well worth the money.
ATH Supernova
The clone shilling is lowkey getting boring seeing how it's always related to whatever said discounter got in stock that is about to expire.
2015-2016 All I would wear was Creed Aventus, when it was good, now the smell turns me off, tired of smelling the DNA tbh
Why doesn't any of these "expert" fragrance TH-camrs mention Dossier's version of Aventus ? It is literally the closest that I've smelled to modern Aventus over every single one in this video and a couple more..
Man, I have to disagree with CDNIM limited edition. I went to great lengths to source a bottle from a reputable seller, paid the extra it costs over the EDT and was sorely disappointed. They're just synthetic bombs. Sure there's a similarity, but the quality, even with the limited edition, comes nowhere near Aventus. And I don't even own a vintage Aventus. My 2022 bottle is night and day ahead of CDNIM LE. I'll never buy a clone ever again - at least not an Armaf clone. Gross.
What I will recommend however, is The Orchid Man by Frapin. Similar vibes, not a clone. But so, so good. So well made. Not a powerhouse, but beautiful for a few hours. And close enough to that DNA that people love so much.
Sorry but this is the 1st time I read bad review about CDNIM LE. Maybe you got the fake one?
Your 2022 Aventus bottle has crap performance.. what you on about??
Why must the CDNIM bottle be so heavy?!!! I travel often and every ounce of weight matters when it comes to luggage. It's unnecessary to make a bottle so thick and heavy. The 200 ml must weigh like 1 kilo, which is very heavy!
I find it hard to believe reviewers who get a cut of the profits. I got burned so many times believing hype. They closed the Macy's that was close as well as the mall where you could actually smell and test a scent. I'm so careful now v
captain clone strikes again
Princess negative Nancy strikes again
@@Roy-eu1gq nothing wrong in pointing out the error of people's ways, if you can't handle that then i suggest you grow a thicker skin you snowflake
Armaf Is Total chimical
👍👍👍
Rave now smells NOTHING like aventus. Its just pineapple.
Facts!!
Try layering it works great
👍👍👍👍
Oh u bored
Why does he look like andrew tatte
JPG le male, ultra male, parfum all got prominent oriental scent. Smells like old Chinese woman's talcum powder 500yrs back maybe more. Reviewer always said smells good, sexy, sweet, vanilla at the end the prominent smells is oriental. My late great grandmother has the oriental scent of talcum powder 😅
Fortunately I buy decant for it and I don't like the prominent note, oriental.
Why most woman choose Le Beau instead of ultra male/le male/parfum, because Le Beau got coconut prominent scent follow by vanilla and its fresh.
Same to D&G The One, nobody said about prominent ginger note! Review said smells sexy, whatever but never said about prominent note. The ginger is prominent note in the D&G. Kinda soothing ginger. Not bad, I like it.
Fragrance is subjective matter. Anybody can like whatever they smell good, I respect that & don't get me wrong. However, please don't advice people for blind buy & please state prominent smells of the fragrance. Other than performance/spl, prominent note/smell is the most important information in fragrance review.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
First
One of you is lying, the other dude said he was first also!
Oh my goodness with the everything smells like Aventus 😠
I've never smelled Aventus, but if it smells like Explorer then I won't like it anyways.
Rasasi zebra.
Sorry. Too many unlabeled links. Going to stick with a channel that puts in the work so I don't have to. Thanks anyway.
