“I used to drive for Uber, and in the back of my car this one fateful night was this exotic smelling young man. He smelled beautiful, but I have a macho belief that a man should never ask another man what he wears. So, the entire ride to NYC, I drove, breathing in this magnificent aroma. I wasn't very much into scents, and fragrances at the time, so to me the exotic scent I was smelling smelled like tea, like freshly brewed hot mint tea, and it smelled dark, black hot THICK tea. From that night on I've searched and searched for that fragrance, I've since gotten into the frag culture in fact. Learning about notes, I searched for fragrances with a tea note which led me to Gucci Pour Homme 2. I literally took my girlfriend with me one night to the mall, went to Perfumania to test Gucci out... It smelled very pleasant, but I was disappointed because it was definitely not the one. So, time went on, and I gave up searching. Watching a bunch of reviews on youtube, I saw a bunch of good ones about Club De Nuit in specific, so I blind bought it. When it came, and I whiffed it, I simply broke out smiling. I had no expectation at all that it would be the very smell I had been searching for. I am convinced this is what that young man was wearing, 100%. I now know that that "tea" smell is described in terms of notes as a "smoky" scent. I don't quite know if it is necessarily a "tobacco" scent, because I know that that word is often thrown around when describing notes as well. All in all, you can imagine my thrill in buying this, and I recommend the fragrance to anyone. I can tell you for sure, I was enchanted when I first smelled it.”
“Very close to Aventus by Creed. Not as strong (or as long lasting), but very good. I've tried other impressions of Aventus and they were not nearly as good this fragrance. As far as where it is made? The attached picture shows the notes on the bottom of the bottle.”
“Smells Like Creed Aventus. Three to four sprays lasts about 7-8 hours. I purchased both this and Insurrection II. Insurrection lasts about 4-5 hours and has a sweeter opening that turned to more of a powdery scent with little smokiness. Armaf has a sweet and smoky opening that projects better. It also lasts much longer. I sprayed each one on a different wrist to compare. Armaf, IMHO smelled much better and was closer to Creed Aventus. It's projects and lasts much longer. The smokiness is also a little stronger. Of the two, Armaf is the definite winner. I went ahead and purchased two more bottles because within a day the price increased almost $10.If you are looking for an alternative for Creed Aventus that is affordable, I highly recommend Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man.”
