Giving this another try

Club de Nuit Intense Man by ArmafArmafClub de Nuit Intense Man3.796 ratings

This one is super interesting to me. I don’t like strong lemon smells so I’m still feeling a bit odd about this smelling a bit like cleaner.

On the other hand there is something really interesting about lemon and cedar together that isn’t 100% what I would consider my signature scent yet is also interesting in a way that makes me keep coming back to it to understand it more.

Yeah idk how I feel about it but if anything I think I may want to explore lighter versions of lemon or at least sweeter varieties; I think the Aventus DNA itself has always been a bit of a mixed one for me.

    Dry down is where it shines. Give it time. The opening is harsh though for sure, but the dry down is why it's one of, if not the best clone of the Aventus DNA.

    If you want something a bit smoother in the same DNA (Absolu version) I'd try Maison Asrar Vanguard Eau de Parfum if you haven't already. Smoother. Very, very nice. Darker, richer, more modern, and less rugged than CDNIM, but still in the same wheel house.
