I had a post deleted by Facebook a couple days ago because of copyright infringement, and all I did was say that I had just learned that Maison means house in French, so it's not really part of the name like I thought, with Margiela and MFK, for example. I think MFK complained about my just mentioning their name, not even showing any kind of clone fragrance or anything. I couldn't believe it. I think that MFK is the problem; they seem to be the ones making a fuss. I hope that just using the initials is still okay.

My personal favorite Aventus clone is by the house of Generic Perfumes and it’s called the ZZ01 batch A++. I’m truly mind-boggled that this house is so overlooked. It performs like old Aventus did on my skin. Well balanced birch along with the burnt pineapple and vanilla. It smells absolutely gorgeous, and I can’t get enough of it. I just hope more people give the house a try. Their stuff is killer!

Hello.. I recently came across your KZfaq channel and I congratulate you for the sincerity in which you describe the perfumes and the diversity of the perfumes. I haven't really entered the area of Middle Eastern perfumes, so if you can recommend some summer perfumes, acceptable for the price and with a more natural smell... As an idea, my favorite summer perfumes are Megamare, Oltremare Bois 1920, Acqva Amara , Torino 21, Dunhill Icon, Micalef Osaito. I'm not interested in compliments but I want it to be more unique. Tnx and keep it up.
