L'aventure by Al Haramain Eau De Parfum Spray (L'aventure Knight)

Product Information

I can't compare it to Aventus, because I've never smelled, but in comparison to another clone, Supremacy Silver by Afnan, I think this one smells better, the opening isn't as harsh. The texture of the patchouli is spot on to the patchouli in Aventus, while CDNI is a bit more brash. Don't get confused people------L'Aventure is amazing and will not break the bank, you won't be disappointed. The fruit is there in the background in the drydown but still overwhelmingly woody with strong patchouli.

Performance is not as good as CDNIM: that thing glues to my bones from morning to bedtime even after a shower, but it is above average when compared to the designer standard of longevity and sillage. Loads of compliments, so good enough projection to be picked up walking around and being in the same room as others.Haven't worn it in probably 2 months, put it on at 6:30 this morning, three sprays on chest, 1 hour later I'm barely smelling anything, but it does smell even better.

However, it's a little too musky on my skin and so I only wear it when I know I'll be out of the house for a while, so no not really great in lockdown. Projection could have been better and the sillage is not very strong but it last 24 hours on my skin. Only one L'Adventure I haven't liked of the 4 I've tried so far and that's the standard white version for men.Went ahead and bought this one and the Armaf one as those were the clones people say were the closest to CA. Whoever claims this is better than Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man because it lacks the synthetic opening, check your nose.

I wear this fragrance and know Creeds Original - and I know that - so the prelude is almost confusingly similar and differences can only be heard in the concentrated sniffing. The fragrance feels masculine, modern, playful, smokey, sporty, slightly sweet, versatile, woody, and somewhat pleasant. The "standard version" has a more lively citrus, When I smell it up close on my wrist it can get a bit sour.Working for a while from home because of the C-word, finally we had to do some personal business together today and I said to him to bring over the bottle just to put a couple of sprays on me for ye olde times' sake.
