Why do I still try the occasional Aventus adjacent scent?

Supremacy Collector's Edition by AfnanAfnanSupremacy Collector's Edition4.334 ratings

I put Aventus in the Santal 33 category in that I like the smell but not how common it is. I know it's snobby, but I just don't want to wear things the same as others, whether that's sneakers, clothes or a scent.

This stuff scratches the itch without having to pony up for the real deal.

    I totally get this!

      I'm not a snobby person in general but even when it comes to playing popular music tracks, I like to try & have a different remix or edit so that it's still a little different

    I keep reading good things about this one. 🙌 For the price I am wondering if I could just blind buy it for my husband (for reference, he loves pineapple in Hacivat). Do you think this would be a safe blind buy, all things considered?!

      If he enjoys Havicat & I was a betting man, I'd bet on him enjoying this. Of the few dupes & 2 different versions of Aventus, this stuff is the loudest on my skin. So perhaps worth bearing in mind

      Have you tried vanguard yet? I was curious but am worried its being pushed by influencers

    I just wear what I want and if someone else is wearing it I just assume they have good taste haha. Maybe it’s just my area but I live in a decently sized city (2 million people) and have yet to run into someone wearing the same fragrance as me. Well one time but it was from my friend who’s also into fragrances. Maybe it’s because I’m sober and don’t go out anymore so I’m not going to places where everyone would be more likely to have a fragrance on?

      I live in London. I work in an office. I commute on a train. I smell the same old same old ALL THE TIME

      Ah makes sense. London is definitely a bigger city and almost certainly more of a fragrance hub. I live in a big city but it’s not a a city you’d think of when you think fragrances if that makes sense haha. So maybe that’s why. I do smell a lot screechy clones of God of Fire though lol
