“Short and sweet:Does it smell EXACTLY like Green Irish Tweed? No. Much more sweet and creamy. But of all the clones of GIT I've tried, and I've tried a LOT, this gets it the closest. Verbena Fields and Emerald Isle from Parfums Vintage have better performance, but also aren't as close to actual GIT as this.Bottom line...if you like GIT, save up for the real deal. It's one of, if not the, most affordable Creed fragrance out there. However, if you just want to give off the impression of GIT and don't mind re-spraying every four or five hours, this far more affordable option is for you!”
“L'Adventure Knight (LAK) is a great clone of Creed's Green Irish Tweed. I have had a bunch of GIT decants over the years and bought a half used bottle of GIT on ebay last year. To save some money, I have tried a few GIT clones, including Armaf's Tres Nuit and I wasn't really impressed. Tres Nuit is an ok clone, but it's just not constructed very well and it has a synthetic smell to me that I don't get from the genuine GIT. LAK takes this to another level. LAK is a good quality juice for the money. It really nails GIT down and doesn't have a synthetic smell to it like Tres Nuit. The opening is 99% GIT and it remains very close during the dry down. I do get a fruit almost Aventus like vibe once it gets down to the base notes after a few hours, which I don't get from GIT--but who can complain about get a little aventus vibe at the end of this frag's journey. In terms of performance, then genuine GIT has never been a strong performer for me. I get 2 hours of moderate to strong projection (maybe 3 feet if I am heavy on the trigger) for the first 2 hours. After that, the scent bubble shrink down and it becomes a skin sent for another 4 hours (I can get 6-8 longer if it's warm out). LAK gives me about the same level of performance. You're not going to get beastly performance from GIT, so don't expect it from a $35 GIT clone. For the money, you really can't complain. This is a great fragrance for the money and a 95% clone of the original.”
