“Smells just like the smokey version of Aventus. Lingers throughout the room. I get compliments every time I wear it. Excellent fragrance. Armaf got this one right.”
“This is a nice addition to any collection. Neither I nor my wife are fans of Aventus. It just doesn't smell great on my skin, and for +$200 it needs to smell amazing. I have also smelled it on co-workers and it just doesn't work for everybody. I still appreciate the uniqueness of the smell, and this provides that at a price that is reasonable. This is something I wear around the house just for me.”
“I have a few decants of Creed's Aventus from various decanters and salespeople. This Armaf clone smells more like one of the decants, than the others (a smoke heavy batch from Nordstrom), but really it's very close to all of them.The opening spray is a bit harsh, but once it dries down after a few minutes, the cloneday match comes out. It's powerful, pineappley, smokey and good. All in all, this will get me through a couple more months without springing for a real bottle of Creed, but at the end of the day, only the original will truly satisfy me. To the inexperienced noise, though, this will be indistinguishable from the real Mccoy. Great blind but for me. As with all fragrance, YMMV.”
“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.”
