Fragrance was one of the things that got me through the passing of my wife. 10 years ago she passed away and for the first month I couldn't sleep unless I went and got some of her perfume and sprayed it on her side of the bed. There is great value in fragrance at least there is and was for me. That's why I have recently in the past 6 months or so began to collect fragrances

My wife got me Creed Aventus for my birthday from a discounter and paid around $350. It's pricey and I had been wanting it for a while but couldn't muster up the will to drop the money. She surprised me and I completely adore the fragrance. Where I live, not a lot of people wear niche fragrances so I don't have the problem of smelling like everyone else. In my opinion, it's worth it. I also have Mont Blanc Explorer, and it's just not the same. Value is in the eyes of the beholder. Same could be said for any hobby. If you're an experienced guitar player, you could drop $4000 on a guitar and think it's worth every penny, whereas a beginner guitarist would be completely stoked on a $300 guitar.

@LeZouave 4 жыл бұрын

Same for me, I asked for Montblanc Explorer and I got Creed Aventus. What a surprise. Creed is known for their batch variation, especially on Aventus. This is a very complex fragrance, in the opening you get a whole bunch of fruit and the smoky dry down last a good amount of time. I already owned Zara Vibrant Leather prior to Aventus and the opening is very close, less complex but still fruity in the opening, but it lack performance (2019 batch). As I knew that Aventus was expensive, I purchased other clone, in order to save it for special occasion. So I got Explorer and Armaf Bucephalus XI (why now Club de Nuit Intense Man? that's another story). So those clone are quite different but still smell a lot like Aventus. Explorer have a different opening and slightly bitter from Ambroxan but the smokyness and bitterness perform. Don't project a lot. With Bucephalus XI, the opening is quite different (vanilla) and very strong. Now I know why Aventus is popular and I also get why clones are popular too. Does it worth $300? Yes but it also make me use it less than other cheaper fragrance.

Expensive fragrances are worth it. Because fragrance is an art form, and when niche fragrance houses like Roja Dove or MFK or Creed create a scent dna, they have all the rights to respect their work and put that in high price, also to fit their customer target, so if they think it's gonna be a superstar like Aventus, they pround of what they made and also want people to feel that (so this point all clones are out, cause they just...clone and change a bit). So if you don't have the same feel with perfumers who made that fragrance, meaning you just don't have the same nose, emotions and just...don't buy it. You love it and want to own the bottle but you want it MUST be cheap? Never gonna happens. I just don't understand why people complain when all you can do is stop buying it if you dont want to.

Kind of weird, but I bought a bottle of Creed "Aventus" in Manhattan by mistake! Received a sample on the 1st floor @ Saks 5th Ave., then went upstairs with my wife to look for clothes. My wife thought the cologne was very good, so before we left I bought a bottle. I thought something was wrong as I swiped my card. The price!! I would not have bought it if I knew, I had never heard of Creed, which is a old British company based in Paris. The best part is that everytime I wore the cologne at least one person commented on it. I have never had a cologne that drew that much attention. That said I have never paid that much before!

@dexxxhunt 4 жыл бұрын

It's arguably my most complimented frag I have.I def agree.I payed retail for Creed many times so i know what you mean,but if your ever in Paris,it's literally half off at the boutiques.I bought many bottles from there,but just as a example.I bought a 50 ml of Green Irish Tweed for 136 Euros,it's 310 USD here in the States.On top of it being way cheaper,Paris has a VAT tax refund for non EU residents If you spend 175 Euros on anything in retail,you get 12% back when you show your passport and get the paperwork.I go a couple of times a year.It's so crucial.This past Jan I went and brought at least 6 or 7 bottles home from Creed,Frederic Malle,Parfums De Marly,MFK,Parle Moi de Parfums etc,not only are they cheaper there,after my tax refund paperwork.I got hundreds of Euros back in my refund.After shopping in Europe,it blows anything out of the water I ever experienced.Peace

I’m new to getting into fragrances, but I enjoy them no matter how expensive they may be. I go through real depression sometimes, to the point I may not feel like showering or personal upkeep. So when I buy a new fragrance it kinda helps wanna get up and get going to enjoy the smell throughout the day if that makes sense. So sometimes it may not be about the price but how it just makes you feel or how a certain fragrance has sentimental value.

My most expensive I have right now is Layton. I do think they are worth it but I think these companies should be giving free samples. I like what PDM did a few weeks ago with their samples. You pay $50 and they sent you 5 male 5 female and gave you a coupon for $50. I think that’s a perfect way for someone to try the scents without either party really getting taken advantage of.

Can you talk about how to smell for the occasion? Just like how I've learnt from your other videos about dressing for the part you want to be. Because yes, you can wear fragances only for yourself but it's one of the things that also affects the ones surrounding you, whether they want it or not. Like on a packed train. For example: Which fragances are better for wearing on a work day where you'll be out for 8 hours? How about for a special occasion? What are the kinds of scents that people generally associate with something or someone?

Hey Captain, you might get a laugh out of this. I graduated high school in 1970 and got a job at the O-club Moffett Naval Air Station. On Friday nights pilots would fly in from all over the country to RON near San Francisco. Marine and Navy fighters would line the ramp with these drop tanks used for carrying weekend bags. Most of the east coast pilots would put a case of Coors from the exchange into one of these tanks for a flight home on Monday. Working behind the bar as a bar boy I heard that one Marine pilot had not done something right and when he got back to his base and opened the tank all the beer had exploded inside which got him in trouble with his command. Semper Fi!!

Bought a bottle back in 2016 in Venice (the perfume store at Ponte di Rialto) for about €100. Fun (or maybe not) fact: the lady at the store told me you could only buy it at the perfume store and nowhere else. Looked them up recently and they also sell online now.........at around €200 a bottle.......yikes. But still looking to pick up a bottle of their Elixir Oud Intanse. About the scent: It smells really warm, cozy. Strong amber and wood with subtle floral touches, but really more oily than alcoholic. Fascinating smell. Performance and projection with my skin complexity is very good, don't overspray this. The bottles are all hand-blown glass with an old school style atomizer.

If something is worth the money is simple math and depends on your personal situation. When you spend money on something like a fragrance always think if the benefit of purchasing this fragrance is bigger than the benefit of something else you would've bought otherwise. If you struggle to afford food at the end of the month, buying an expensive niche fragrance is definitely not worth it. even a cheap $30 fragrance would not be worth it. If you have all you basic needs covered, but your entire wardrobe is worn out or nothing in it actually fits you, don't buy an expensive fragrance, buy some new clothes that fit you instead. But if you have everything covered, your style is on point and you want that little bit extra on top, I think high quality fragrances can do that.

Bleu Chanel is a great fragrance!! But I haven't tried to Creed yet!

I prefer some darker, less fruity perfumes over Creed Aventus, like Amouage Memoir. It's a little bit cheaper too, although it's still an expensive perfume nonetheless

Brian Patrick van Oers Memoir is really nice dark scent! Like walking through a foggy forest during a misty morning.

I fortunately can afford Creed Aventus. But I haven't bought it for the simple reason of all the rumours of new batches that lack in performance. Until I get confirmation of a batch being a good performer, I won't pull the trigger.

I was just searching yesterday. Why it's so expensive. Read it's heritage. Then, I also read...surprise..that they actually didn't exist for as long as they claim. Well..

They're so expensive because a sucker is born everyday. It's for damn sure not worth MSRP on the Aventus reforumlations. However, people act like there isn't a grey market. Prices are SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper outside of the states, and you can buy from people who have connects that ship direct from France. It's $225/100ml retail bottle of most 2019/2020 bottles. Then if you go the decant route, you can pay as little as $160-185 for 100ML decants. So again, it's expensive because people are ignorant.

YES! I agree! It's subjective! Like our taste in art (and in women)! I definitely think that Aventus is worth the price and am grateful that BECAUSE of the price, not everyone and their brother are wearing it!

The most expensive fragrance I bought was a 200ml Versace Dylan Blue and 150ml of D&G The One. College student, don't think I'll need a refill for a while

So...I don’t know what’s it like in the US, but $500 is nowhere near a months rent in Ireland. Lowest rent you’ll pay in Dublin is upwards of €1,500 (or like $1,600)

Creed Aventus is worth it to me. I got most of the top colognes you speak of on several videos. Some of them are alright to me but many others like it. Some I like a lot. Creed Aventus is my fav to smell on me. Seems to get the most compliments as well. I wear it a couple times a week. Yeah, it’s expensive but a big bottle will go a long way. Expensive means less people will be rocking it as well. As we know most men don’t even wear cologne. Add a cologne like aventus. I never smelled it on anyone ever before. I’m good with it and love aventus. Just hope they don’t change it to much as time goes on, water it down. Can’t trust some places buying it. I buy it directly from Creed to ensure I get the real deal. Could save $50 or so buying from a legitimate site but I hear rumors where they aren’t what they should be. Just went to the main source.

I don't care for Aventus. The more I smell it, the more it becomes BLAH! I'm aiming for the Original Vetiver, I'm saying up for that baby! My brother-in-law has Green Irish Tweed, I wanted it too but I don't want to copy him.

@edwardpack3294 4 жыл бұрын

I love Creed fragrances. I have Aventus and Green Irish Tweed and currently saving my money for Viking. The quality as well as the longevity make them worth it to me. I also buy from discounters and don't pay MSRP. Is it for everyone? Definitely not, but if you love fragrances and it's your hobby, then it MAY be for you. Try them first! High end fragrances are not a blind purchase!

My priciest fragrance is diesel - only the brave tatto. It's not really expensive, but 90€ is still a bit. Also, i remember i saw a video once, where it was explained that you don't just pay for the fragrance, but also the memories you associate to it. What do you think about this?

525$ is just ridiculous. Seems like the US prices are a rip off compared to European. The sad truth is if you're going for compliments from the ladies a random fresh fragrance for around 20 $ will most likely do a better job.

When it comes to Aventus, to me personally it's a really hard buy at this point. The performance isn't the greatest and there are just so many good clones out there and when people smell it on you, most people won't be able to tell the difference. And let's be honest, if we spend so much money on a fragrance, we want the exclusivity that comes with it, but with the amount of good clones, the Aventus scents has become so widely accessible to everyone. Imagine you spent this much for the real deal and then you get asked if you are wearing Club de Nuit intense. That's like buying a Rolex and then someone comes up to you and says "Hey, nice Invicta you got there, buddy".

I have Creed Original Santal...and WOW. I get a similar reaction from women as well when wearing it compared to when I wear Burberry London and Dior Sauvage. This is all prior to them knowing what I’m wearing and most do not know of the Creed brand.

Recently bought Roja Elysium and Creed Aventus and Royal Oud. If you cannot afford, simply don’t buy it. I don’t want to wear cologne that everyone is using. Cheers!
