“It stinks... I've had much better colognes in same price point that get compliments. This one is strong smelling but not a good smell. Smells like if you came across an antique bottle of cologne and open it. Very alcohol/pine scent. Also, you can not return it, so you are stuck with something that doesn't smell as advertised.”
“Ok. I own Creed Adventus and I also own Executive Man eau de toilette which is actually pretty good. I had expectations for this to be a really good experience. Upon spraying this, it literally smells like Aqua Net Hair Spray. Not kidding. Just straight pungent alcohol. Make it through the first 3-5 minutes and then it smells like creed but with lemon not pineapple. After 10-15 min the lemon wears down and the dry down smells like a weakly scented creed aventus. This is both good and bad. Good because you can wear it professionally more discreetly. Bad because it’s weaker. Hard to say how long it sticks around. But performance is bad compared to other parfums I’ve owned. Almost a travesty calling it as such. It wears like a weak eau de toilette. Calling this parfum is a straight lie. That being said, apply more liberally and don’t apply sparingly like a parfum unless you want to be disappointed.”
