    I wore Creed Aventus the other day and got 14 compliments. Granted I worked at 2 jobs for 16 hours but it made a believer out of me.

      Its incredible . Girls love it too people calling it a boxer dropper are just regurgitating what they heard someone else say and have no real world experience with it.

    Great job on the video and rotation, I have never owned a bottle Creed Aventus but I had a sample 9ml and I think I paid $75 . I never got a compliment from a woman but I bought Armaf CDNIM and got compliments galore men and women . Stay safe brother

    My bottle of Creed I bought at the beginning of the year was super Smokey and not much pineapple. and now it did 360 and become this super fruity with a hint woody touch and get about 8 hrs out of it.

    Just sprayed some of the real deal for the first time in 3 clones and goddamn it's on another planet. The clones do Aventus like a certain way (or few ways) and I love that, but like... If you really want Aventus, you gotta get Aventus.
    Guess I'm gonna have to wear Aventus this week!

    Hey Gerard. Not a big Aventus fan. Not that it is bad, just not my thing. Chopard on the other hand, I have all the Malakis.Great scents and definitely in my wheelhouse. Last week I wore the following: YSL Y Live, Nishane Ani, Prada
    L Homme Leau, YSL Ultime, Day 3 Silent Rescue, Joop Homme Le Parfum, and Lalique Oriental Zinc. Thanks for the video.

    • @gerardgeorge

    Some amazing wears this week. Aventus really is one of the best to ever do it. The haters are ridiculous or they're mad at the price, but there's a reason it's far and away the most cloned fragrance ever. And yeah, you had two of my favorite Ralph Lauren scents on this week too. Really happy that you're liking Purple Label, I think I'm going to have to wear it out this week.
    This weekend I ended up wearing Mugler Hot Cologne and Guerlain Vetiver Extreme, and my girlfriend really, really like that Guerlain on me. It's a shame that it's so hard to find now and that it never took off like the original Guerlain Vetiver. Admittedly, it was probably a risky move to take the citrus out of the original and replace it with a far more herbal take, but it all blends together so beautifully I don't know how anyone could ever hate it.

    • @gerardgeorge
      @gerardgeorge  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I would put Guerlains vetiver against any vetiver fragrance I've smelled so I can only imagine what tweaks they made in extreme. That one I have not smelled yet.

    It's a shame Aventus is getting a bad rap, that often happens when something becomes too popular. Snobbery at its worst. The Chopard sounds very interesting, I may have to pick that one up! Last week for me: Sun- Lattafa Maahir Legacy (great Sedley clone), Mon- Burberry Touch (an all-time favorite), Tues- Dunhill Century (I know you prefer the Blue, I love both), Wed- ADG Profondo, Thurs-- Mancera Hindu Kush, Fri- Mancera Intense Cedrat Boise and Sat- Kenzo Homme EDP. Well, I think summer's finally here!

    I don't hate Aventus; I don't want to spend anywhere the price for it, though. I like Green Irish Tweed a whole lot more, though that one has its own cheapy twist/rip-offs/alternatives that might well stand in. Speaking of cheapies... I'm very curious to smell that Chopard! Wearing Comme des Garcons "Man 2" today.
