  • Since reviewing both AVENTUS by Creed and ELYSIUM by Roja Dove, I've received a lot of comments and feedback on both fragrances....both claiming to be the King of Men's Fragrances.
    So let's do a blind test and see what Tash will pick....

    Have you tried the Pure Parfum version of Elysium, if so, do you get much better longevity and projection ?

      @TheNicheFragranceCollector  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi @Reza R, I have tried it but I don’t own it, so not sure how the 2 will perform against each other. However, being that the Parfum has a higher concentration of oils, I’m going to say that it will smash the ‘Cologne’ version. I know that the ‘Cologne’ version has a more of a citrus opening and from memory the dry downs on both were similar.
      I selected this version only based on price. I wanted to ‘own’ a Roja and at the time, this is where my budget took me😬 The mission is to start owning the ‘big dog’ versions of the Roja collection🤑
      Thanks mate, great to hear from you

    When i purchased Elysium , to be honest i liked it but didn't love it and felt the performance was a bit sub par....but my son wore it to a wedding yesterday and it smelled amazing in the air around him and i could still smell it when he arrived home in the evening so perhaps i go nose blind when wearing it myself ? 🙂
    Another great review matey.

    • @TheNicheFragranceCollector

      It's funny when a fragrance does this....when you think it's gone, but it's just that I've gone nose blind to it (in truth it makes me sad). If I ever loose scent to my perfume I always ask those around me if they can smell it and 99.9% of the time the answer is 'yes'.
      On the flip side, I love how a perfume smells so different on me versus how it smells on my sons...it makes me feel that these fragrances adapt to our own natural scent; gives the fragrance a new dimension.
      Good to hear from you Chris, thanks for reaching out👊🏽

      Yes you’re right not a true blind test.
      In fact it was a “first time smell” to these two fragrances. Tash had never smelt them before, so she was choosing based on her first time experience of these.
      I’ll do another lineup, and this time round I’ll make sure that the candidate does not see the fragrance in advance

  • @JT-rx1eo
    @JT-rx1eo 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I'm a little late to this, but for me what gives Elysium an edge is that the fruit and citrus extend deeper into the lifecycle of the wear compared to Aventus. From my bottle and a separate decant, Aventus' pineapple disappears really quickly. And what's left in the Aventus drydown is that "pencil shavings and lead" woody/smokey accord that I don't particularly like so much. But what is apparent is that Elysium took its inspiration from Aventus. Roja Dove can't deny that.

      Funny, I've heard a few people comment the same thing on this thread (or in another video I did on Elysium). I don't find that for me. It stays on me comfortably for 7+ hours.
      I'd be interested to know if others around you can smell the fragrance. I have a few perfumes, where I've become anosmia to that fragrance, yet those around me can actually smell it...not sure why this happens?? The temptation is to overspray, but as mentioned I've discovered that it's best to ask those around me first🤔
      Out of the 2 (Elysium or Aventus) I find that for me Aventus projects better and creates a much strong sillage.
