I can start out by saying that I love Aventus and I’ve been on tear lately looking for more affordable soloitions.

I have sprayed this frag on skin and on clothes, staying mostly in an airconditioned environment, but it just does not satisfy. Radius, just like everyone else, you're putting it on skin instead of clothes, 2 sprays is more than enough to last for days, but people still think scents should be sprayed on skins. I did have a test strip of the latest Aventus Absolu and it lasted an easy 12 hours on the paper - no observations for skin or clothing. I bought CDNIM LE, L adventure, Pur Lui zebra, Montblanc explorer and iam looking for good Aventus alternative. This beats Club de Nuit Intense Man as a clone on the initial pineapple burst (whereas CDNIM is totally lemon) but CDNIM completely destroys this from about 15 minutes in, all the way until the end.Reminds me of stuff my Dad wore when I was growing up so perhaps a little dated, not sure if my son is going to like it! OK, below here there seems to be a lot of people complaining this doesn't last and doesnt project, you're wrong, period, it does.

I been wearing several other more expensive colognes, and this was the first unsolicited complement I have ever gotten. Not because it doesn't smell good, but it smells extremely similar to the bottle of Alexandria Fragrances Zion that I already have.com perfumes magazine - All Rights Reserved - do not copy anything without prior written permission. This is well-known problem of modern molecule/raw ingredients fragrances for first user 30 min and gone for second 10h and heavy projection. Leans more fruity than birch/woody but has decent depth to it and isn't just all pineapple, lemon, or bergamot. I would bet money 99% of people would not tell the difference in a blind test of this and Aventus after a 10 minute dry down and most would probably prefer this because it is stronger.
