“I received a cracked bottle so that was annoying but this item was not good to start with. If you're broke and like the aventus/pineapple type smell then go for it, but it's not aventus, it's not good imo, parfums vintage has many aventus variants that are much much better if that's why you're looking at this. Grab a 30ml decant of aventus if you want a better smell and better performance for a reasonable price. Aventus is over-hyped and overused imo and there are so many better options than this available if that's what you're looking for.”
“This was not what I had expected, was hoping for the notes from Fragrantica and the fruity/woody vibe noted in the France batches versus the smokey UAE batches, but this is just a very lemony feminine scent with a slight smokiness. No pineapple, wood, currant, or musk. My lemon essential oil mixed with smoke extract would smell better. The opening is harsh as described, but the dry down is not better. I just don't understand the hype. Others seem to think they killed the EDT so people would buy the EDP instead. Anyone else feel the same with the 08/19 France batch? (Batch code: 285162, 25255).I received no compliments and asked others what they thought in case it was just me, but everyone shared my opinion. Longevity is extremely poor (4-5 hours with 5 sprays or so), which is surprising because the atomizer puts out so much juice each spray. Wish I could return.”

“Wow! This scent comes off extremely intense but it starts to smooth out the longer you have it on. More intense than The fragrance it was inspired by. I would recommend one or two sprays at max to not overwhelm the aroma. Definitely worth the money. Anyone expecting $300-400 worth of a finish would be selling themselves short. One thing I did not like was the finish on bottle it looks as it was rushed or not made with precision.”
