“Do yourself a favor, DO NOT BUY this fragrance. IT'S NOT an impression of Aventus. It smells like Rotten Poison mixed with PineSol.. I don't know if this was just a sick joke that everyone is passing along but this stuff is gross.. Please, just shell out the money and buy Aventus..It's expensive but you will finally be at peace.”
“I own Creed Aventus that i purchased from Neiman Marcus and this is a spot on clone as far as smell. I haven't done a side by side but here's no need. It smells exactly the same. I ordered a second bottle already. If you're in the fence, don't be. Projection? Longevity? Seems on par too. I'm impressed. Glad I could get something that smells as good as Aventus for when I run out of it.”
“I tried this fragrance for the same reasons a few others did -- As an alternative to wearing Creed's Aventus too often....Intense Man's scent is sharp, citrusy, smokey, spicy and strong....When oversprayed it projects well with decent longevity and has been favourably commented on....There is a negative when compared to the sweeter, smoother Aventus though, and that is CDNIM's constant lemon/lime note in the background of its less refined smokey drydown.....The harshness strongly evident at the opening and in the drydown when first using this juice dissipates with time though....It's as if once the contents of the bottle decrease, the juice inside breathes much better and improves in quality like a bottle of wine .CONCLUSION: Although Armaf's Club de Nuit Intense Man is not exactly like Aventus -- it is Aventus-like -- and that's perfectly OK.”
