Atlantus Original (AVENTUS) - Eau De Parfum, Fragrance for Men (50 ml)

Arrived… sprayed… went to supermarket and received 2 compliments from strangers within minutes asking what I was wearing and saying how nice it smelt. Can’t believe it for the price! Longevity maybe 2-4 hours. Smells in the rough ball park to creed aventus. But for the price it’s worth grabbing a bottle. Will be ordering a larger one next time

I was once a top 100 reviewer here on Amazon, but became disillusioned with the constant bombardment from sellers asking me for a favourable five star review. It became so distasteful, I discontinued reviews. I now only post a review when I buy a product with my own money, and find it worthwhile passing on my experience of a product to fellow buyers looking for an honest, unbiased opinion. With that said.... There are umpteen similar takes of Creed's Aventus out there, and I've tried all of them. Up until now, the Perfume Parlour's effort and Victor no 9 were my go to fragrances, PP having good longevity but slightly 'vegetably' when first applied, and Victor gone to a skin scent in an hour or so.This product arrived this morning, and I have to say, it is an exact (underlined) replica of the frutiy batch of Creed that I bought (and still eke out on high days and holidays) in 2017. The jury is still out on longevity, but nothing will match the 8 hour longevity of Creed, which is why you pay £200 a bottle for it. I'll report on longevity within the week.Without doubt, this is an exceptional mens fragrance. Try it, it is a unique fragrance ( they don't call the original 'The King' for nothing), you definitely won't be disappointed, just be ready for the compliments.Edit 1st October: I have now had this fragrance for a week, and can confirm, on my skin (your mileage may vary) I am still receiving compliments on its scent after a good four hours. It remains on clothing for two or three days. It may appear to lose it's scent, but that is a known natural phenomenon (look up nose blindness), however, it still projects like a beast for hours after you think it has gone.Atlantus - 5 stars from a very very happy customer.

Strange one is this....on initial application it has an oily plasticky vibe that eventually turns into a reasonable copy of Aventus. For me this has quite a (too) heavy sweet syrupy pineapple scent for a while then settles down in time and smells very nice although it isn't long lasting on me. Creed Aventus is a gorgeous fragrance but I can't afford to waste money on it especially when there are so many decent clones around. Victor no.9 (my favourite) and CDN being just a few others worth looking into. My bottle had leaked a small amount (sprayer not screwed up tight) when recieved so the box was wet/label faded but the seller sent another bottle on contact....same thing happened again but to their credit I did recieve atleast the amount of product I paid for so left as was. It's nice enough without being the best and being 30ml is dearer than the other options.

I've had a couple of bottles of Creed in the past. Green Irish Tweed and Aventus. They are superb scents. I've never been a smell snob, but equally have never been tempted to try any "fake" bottles, apart some in Spain a few years back which avoid animal fixatives (musk glands) HOWEVER, with Creed prices bordering on the cost of a small car, I thought I would give Atlantus a try based on the low low risk price and generally positive reviews.So what have I found? Well I've had a squirt of Atlantus on for over 4 hours now, and it is still projecting just fine. And equally important, it does smell (to my nose at least) remarkably like Creed Aventus. There is a twinge of a lemony splash at the top just as others report, but when the dry down is complete 20 or 30 mins later, the proper mid and base notes take over. Maybe not 'quite' as much tangy wood throbbing up on top of the musk as Aventus has, but it is VERY close. And if it only lasts 4 or 5 hours, then really why care?? Its a complete bargain, and I am positive anybody in the pub or the office would pass this off as the real thing. If there are no unforeseen consequences (and none so far so unlikely to be any) then I'll be buying another bottle. It does a good job of being Aventus, and it also kicks many other branded options with similar characteristics (e.g. some Tom Ford, maybe even D2 to name a couple) completely in to touch.Try it. You might be very pleasantly surprised. I was...

This is a gorgeous aftershave in its own right but smelling like Creed is an absolute bonus.It's smoky and sexy and lasts for ages throughout the day. The smell gets better as it warms with your skinMy husband wears it and it still smells fabulous when he comes home from work 10 hours laterHigh recommended product and supplier... Atlantus fragrances.

Ok, gotta say this did not sit well as an aftershave/fragrance called Aventus, smell was fine at first but quickly changed to weird fishy undertones?? (possibly Mackerel)the smell, even after a liberal spray did not last longer then an hour and had no lingering affect at all, for the price its overpriced, read some guy come back to reviewing as he felt it was that good, well all i can say is his sense of smell must be stunted by an abundance of nasal hair as i struggle to find the good in this fragrance

My product came in the lovely new redesigned black bottle, which looks far more premium and has a good atomiser.This fragrance really does smell great. It doesn’t smell exactly like creed of course but all of the right notes are there, with the exception of the vanilla, and with a harsher chemical feel in the nose. The pineapple note lasted about 1hr for me and it follows the dry down of a reasonably smokey batch of Aventus after.Longevity was 4-6hrs for me with about 1-2ft projection and sillage.My only complaints are the lack of vanilla and the fact they don’t sell this in larger bottles as I would love to buy 100ml bottles of this!Don’t let the low price fool you, as it is a small bottle, making it around £40/100ml - a reasonable price for its quality. Hopefully a £30-35 100ml bottle comes soon!
