If you compare it as a clone of Creed then don't buy it, there are much closer clones. If you compare it as a separate fragrance then the subject changes. Very fresh scent with nice citrus and some woody notes, probably an office fragrance as it doesn't overwhelm others. Moderate projection and longevity. But the paradox with this particular fragrance is that I have received quite a few compliments and that's what confuses me. Maybe it's worth another try.

WARNING: The formula has changed compared to before and it is not strong enough. It doesn't remind you of a parfum, it feels more like a cologne. Its scent is wonderful, yes, masculine and "fresh" but at the same time classy, like Creed's Aventis. But no matter how much you spray, it lacks power. Even if you spray it on your hand to test it, you don't feel it. After 1-2 minutes you start to notice it warming up, but still... It is now only good for the office, you won't wear it to go out at night, there are soaps that smell stronger. The version before 2024 is much stronger. If you search for it on the internet, you'll see what I mean. The first time I wore it, I thought it was a fake! Beyond that, however, for the office, it is one of the best a man can wear.

Decent aroma for its price. Oriental spices with a dominant lime scent in the base, personally, it seems like a somewhat typical citrusy old-school men's fragrance to me. Overall, it's not very complex. In a head-to-head comparison with Creed (which is supposed to be a clone), it didn't seem related to me apart from the citrus base. Creed appears to be a much more complex fragrance that you explore as you smell it. On the other hand, this is a relatively simple, refreshing, pleasant fragrance that you can enjoy smelling. It is definitely not bad.

As for clones and "oriental" fragrances, I would recommend Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense in this price range. Start with that one first, and then see all the others

Good for summer mainly because the corresponding Armaf and Afnan fragrances are stronger in longevity and intensity. With this logic alone, I would repurchase it, i.e. if I wanted a summer clone of Creed Aventus

The packaging and the bottle of the perfume are okay, but I'm quite disappointed with the fragrance's performance. The scent itself is lovely but its longevity leaves much to be desired. 2/3 hours max. Go back to CDNIM.

Impressive packaging with a box and a unique container with a rubber lid around shiny aluminum. Overall, it has a superior appearance compared to well-known brands, with a pleasant, refreshing, and luxurious scent. However, despite being intense, the longevity is only four hours, which is classic.
