Avenue

WARNING: THIS WILL CAUSE SEVERE BUYER'S REMORSE FOR A FEW, WHO RECENTLY OWNED CREED'S AVENTUS AT RETAIL PRICES! Al-Rehab Avenue CPO does not have smoky pineapple note, however there is the natural bergamot note that is juicy and exceptionally well-rounded by the smoky dry patchouli accord. Avenue oil CPO is versatile, smoky, fresh, and easily reminds one of the Creed's legendary cash-cow, Aventus! Avenue lasts longer than CA, but it is not a projection beast like some of the batches of CA. Avenue like it's namesake has that dirty-clean smoky aroma of freshly minted $100 Bills, so both literally smell like Cash Money! Kudos to Al-Rehab for nailing that unique aroma without a fairytale legacy marketing ploy as employed by countless Greed companies. Do not judge the product based on the minimal pinch U feel in Ur pockets, if anyone smells this blind I'm sure they will be pleasantly perplexed by it's aroma as well as the feelings that are truly mesmerizing. Also, personally people who really value My presence have never been so happy to be around, with compliments that are personal and thoughtful. This and also Aventus, somehow brings out the best of feelings in the wearer as well as the people around. Yes, both literally smell like currency MONEY! This is not a Club/Date scent, there are others which have that vibe but not this! Also it's most suited for people who are not into clubbing but enjoy good company everywhere else. Maybe Club scents are overrated, how much time does an average person spend in a Club anyway!? Think about it... Pro-tip: If U want projection with Avenue, then decant CDNIM/Supremacy Silver and mix it with Avenue oil. Prefer 50ml EDP with 5-10ml CPOil, let them steep for atleast 2 weeks before regular use. P. S. Don't bother to get the spray EDP version of Avenue, it's not similar to the CPO version at all! Maybe it's not Al-Rehab's forte... But Perfume Oils are truly a gift from the Other Side!

I took a chance on this perfume oil, based on the reviews. I was looking for something fresh, yet unique (as opposed to my usual oudy, rosy, ambery, smoky, spicy choices) - and this has delivered! I am a feminine, yet self-sufficient woman, on the back side of 50, who is rather Avant Garde, mercurial, and bohemian, in her tastes. This fragrance suits me, for such reasons. What a chameleon, it is! Avenue is an all-day gobstopper - it changes into something different and more delightful, with every passing moment. The opening reminds me of a good old fashioned bay rhum, laced with Iso E Super, spruce tips, fresh crenshaw melon, dry bergamot, and caviar lime (I'm not getting lemons, this is definitely lime). Then, the rose and jasmine peep out, just a little...and BAMMO! Out comes that gorgeous, smooth, oud/powder/smoky birch drydown, which plays leapfrog with the indomitable bergamot note, for the rest of the day. It is a real wrist sniffer. The sillage and throw are impressive, for the £2 I spent. Make no mistake, this does not smell cheap. I feel like I stole it, for the price! If you are a confident, "IDGAF" kind of lady, you can definitely get away with this fragrance. It's no more masculine than Cool Water, or Hugo Boss, in my opinion (both of which are in my collection). Honestly, I prefer this cheapie to either of those. Five stars, for my new, industrial strength, after shower pick-me-up. My husband loves it, too. We will be sharing this bottle.

Fragrance -Avenue Al-Rehab Bottle(roll-on)from - 2016 Perhaps we can't see the forest for the trees.Al-Rehab can produce and sell this beautiful perfume for $ 3.What would happen if the company had at its disposal, say, $ 6?That would be something. Avenue is a musky,woody,fruity and a bit smokey interpretation of lemon with a nice touch of patchouli and tonka and with a wisper of romantic jasmine.It has some similarities to Aventus by Creed,L'Aventure by Al Haramain and Club de Nuit Intense by Armaf.Highly recommend this one. Longevity - 10/10(10+ hours) Silage/Projection - 8,5/10(heavy projection and silage for the first 2-3 hours) Weather - For more or less any time of year.Best in spring and summer.I personally wouldn't wear this on a really cold winter days. Versatility - 10/10 Age - 20+ Compliments - 9/10 Scent - 8,5/10 Main notes according to me - lemon,musk,patchouli,jasmine,tonka,amber. The drydown is a bit woody,smokey and musky and I get some musk,tonka,amber,citruses and vanilla. Emotions -timeless,elegant,calming,appealing,clean,positive. Occasion -For more or less any ocasion. Could be a nice signature scent.You'll get compliments with this one.

Compared to CDNIM, this starts out very smooth and VERY fruity. I absolutely love the fruity opening. The middle of the life of the fragrance is great, but not as wowing as CDNIM, and here's why: What this is missing is the smoky aspect and instead, it makes up for it by being VERY patchouli heavy in the base! The patchouli lasts for 18 hours easily, and it's a very dry/hot smelling patchouli. If you absolutely love dry patchouli, you may not mind this one bit, but I wish the fruit could've stuck around a bit longer to blend with the heavy patchouli base. As for comparing it to Creed Aventus (16D01 smoky batch and 16E21? pineapple batch), this isn't really that close. I do think the fruit in the opening is closer than CDNIM, but the overdose of patchouli in the base to compensate for the lack of smokiness is its weak point. All in all, for its price, this is still pretty amazing and a 6ml roll on will last you as long as a 3.4oz bottle of some other scents. Overall, this is worth the price and worth experiencing, but it's not an exact clone. You must like strong dry patchouli in order to truly appreciate this fragrance.

This is a review for the 6ml roll on. It’s a Nov 2024 batch. I haven’t tried the OG Aventus but have tried most of it’s clones. This is the 2 dimensional version of my Cdnim PP. It has the same citrusy bright opening from the lemon and bergamot. As opposed to most of the folks, I like the opening of both Avenue and Cdnim. Within 30 mins, the citruses fade away and then I start getting the smoky woody note. There’s no birch listed here but I do feel it’s present, it’s what gives the smoky medicinal feel. Post 6hrs, this becomes a skin scent and this is where it completely changes into a different fragrance. This ends up smelling like a typical middle eastern fragrance with musk, oud and a hint of rose and at this point, I have to scrub it off. It’s about 70% close to Cdnim, it smells like how Cdnim smells if sprayed on clothes, as applying Cdnim on skin brings out much more notes including unbeatable drydown of creamy vanilla, ambroxan and musk. These are missing in Avenue, as it tries to focus on the smoky aspect. Definitely would rebuy. It’s a 9/10 given that I paid about $1.7.

My husband wore this today, then went swimming at lunchtime, showered, then did some shopping. When he walked in, he smelled delicious! I asked if he'd taken it with him to re-apply. No, it was the one application around 9 am. I can't believe this would emerge unscathed from chlorine-treated water and shower gel. It's now nearly 8 pm, and it still smells great. That is absolutely value for money. I have never smelled anything to match this one. I will be getting him some back-up bottles of oil. As this is supposed to be unisex, I will try it to see if it smells different on myself. Who knows, we might be sharing it. (Or fighting over it!)

I have never tried the spray however the roll-on oil version is a little beast. The opening is very explosive, especially in warm temperatures. I ALWAYS get compliments with this, the females love it on a man, and the men will notice and respect you, therefore, it is a fragrance that can be pulled off with confidence like an alpha-male as it is very masculine, elegant and it will turn heads. Longevity is great 10+ hours easy! Projection is quite heavy for the first 3-4 hours then it becomes moderate and eventually skin scent. Look at this as the intense version of Creed aventus without the pineapple note.

Update: This is fantastic and is rapidly becoming my spring time favourite. I'm not shy with the application and it's getting a lot of compliments. In the better weather the lemon stands out much more, making it sporty at the start and dark on the dry down. One of the very best Al Rehab offerings on a man. --------------------- Beautiful and quirkily masculine. This is the smell of woody peat (the oud and spicy, deeply smokey patchouli) burning on an open fire in a rural Irish cottage, somehow mixed with a top of heavy musk and curiously dry citrus that combine into a forlorn, moody pine. I love this.

Lets take another look at this 6oz roll-on $5.45 fragrance... Delivered... How can you not appreciate this little beast? No Brainer! Its smokey and fruity. Be careful, it will fill the room! You know... I'm going to have some FUN and layer Avenue with a spray of Insurrection II Pure and a spray of Club de Nuit Intense. WHAT CHA THINK ABOUT THAT... Improved longevity because of the oil base? Some people are getting 12 hours from this bomb by itself. I wish I had enough cash to afford a bottle of Aventus. Though what would be the fun in that with all these clones out there. Last count was 8. :-)

Ignore the opening for 10 minutes as the lemon isn’t the best but it will disappear, however after that it turns into an amazing musky, woody, velvety cotton scent that smells like Molecule 01 and the dry down of Aventus had a love child which kicked out the pineapple. It’s very masculine though I’m sure a woman could pull this off, but most of all it genuinely smells very expensive as the blend is perfect. I bought a 6ml roll on from eBay for a mere £1.99 delivered. Off the scale value for money!

Very Refrashing! Suit for almost all occasions. Top Note is Ok Ok but Middle note is very pleasing and masculine. it feels like A Bottle Filled With Testosterone. For those who uses sweet fragrences might get annoyed at starting when you firstly apply it. But day after day You will become Addicted of it. if you have other fragrances You will not pick other fragrance while Going for an Interview or any other formal meatings. Because this is an Alrounder Fragrance and very safe choice.

Seems like the newer variants last very little , I used to love it so much and when I started using it 2-3 years back it used to last 6 hours or so but recently this only lasts like an hour or two max, I don't know if I'm going nose blind or something but I don't think that's the case because I tested it on paper and also on clothes and yeah not too long lasting anymore.. sad to see such a downfall of a beautiful scent like this one. Al-Rehab, fix this asap!!!!!

Be wary of claims this is not an Aventus clone. This is, like Hacivat, superior. So whilst not 100% a clone it manages to address the inadequacies of Aventus. It lasts longer, the drydown is better than a generic wood and to my liking the opening is brighter with more citrus and maybe lemon verbena. Absolute great buy. If you want a better Aventus this is it.

I'm not comparing this to anything...I know some of these Al-rehab fragrances are supposed to be dupes but I've never smelled any of them so here goes...This is the perfect work scent for men or women. It's crisp, airy, clean and has a bit of yum to it as well. My husband works with the public and this is ideal for him.

Yeah, I think this will be my new favorite Al Rehab oil! What a lovely and modern smelling fragrance. Silver and Sultan now have dethroned. As the other reviews have said, it does have an Aventus vibe. But I'm not going to start anything with that. Without comparing this to anything else, it stands well on its own.

Over the course of the last year, I've really come to appreciate patchouli. This (oil version) is getting worn more and more often when I don't want to bother with having to reapply CDNIM. It's definitely worth the money. A little goes a LONG way and 6ml will last you quite a while.

Starts with a blast of harsh lemon & in the dry down it is a clean musky scent. Basic scent for casual usage. Lasts for 4/5 hours & does not feel cheap after the opening. I spray it under my undershirt as a base fragrance & it works. Got it for 10$ only so it was a good deal.

The opining notes are similar to Next Gold Amber. Gorgeous, fresh citrus-and-bergamot vibe, dries down to a crisp patchouli and white musk. Sillage is enormous, great longevity. Very masculine, you might need some confidence to pull it off if you are female.

I have a 6ml roll on oil of this and its very like Aventus in the dry down. What an absolute bargain again from this house. I now have 3 top ones in Sultan, Avenue and Silver. The opening isnt good but in 10to 15 mins its really similar to aventus and CDNIM

Bought the 6 ml oil pack for $2. Use it by layering with CDNIM PP. Great for Office use.

Of all the perfume I own, I got the most compliment with this one.

Great scent. Longevity and Silage is great.

This review is for the roll-on oil version of Avenue. Let's be clear. This is NOT Aventus. It does follow the basic stylings of Aventus, and thus does fall into that same "ballpark," but there is no mistaking one for the other in a side by side comparison. The same can honestly be said about every single other "Aventus-type" without exception. I'm no Creed snob, but that's just the truth as I see it. I'm also not saying any one is better or worse than the others -- that's a matter of personal preference -- but they are all different from Aventus and each other, to varying degrees. Having gotten all of that out of the way, I can tell you that Avenue -- cheesy and banal naming aside -- is a really pleasant and lasting scent that compares very favorably with all the others in this range, Aventus included. In spite of the obvious absence of pineapple and smoky birch, it does hit the basic citrusy-woody-musky-sweet accords with grace and balance that totally belies its ridiculously low price. In the opening, there is plenty of sweetish citrus brightness, making it pleasant from the very beginning. On dry down, I also get a slight peppery touch, along with a bit of vanilla and woodiness that combines to evoke a better rounded Mont Blanc Explorer in some ways. This dry down lasts and lasts on my skin, which again, compares very well in this range. Projection is modest, but as someone who is well past the need to impress anyone, that's an added plus for me. I don't want to offend, and I really don't care to impress. Overall, I think Aventus (pre-2019) is still king of this range in terms of quality and nuance (and it damn well better be at over $300 a pop), but you really can't go wrong with Avenue as a more generic "ballpark" fragrance. This coming from someone who really doesn't wear any of the clones all that well vs the OG -- including CDNI, Insurrection II, L'Aventure, Supremacy Silver, Explorer, MBZ Select and so on. This one, I can wear and fully enjoy, just about any time and any place. That says it all for me. Thumbs up for Avenue. It's dynamite when layered with something similar - like Afnan Supremacy Silver and its ultra-fine mist sprayer. Now I'm very curious how the EDP spray compares with the oil. If I can find it.

OK, just because it has 'AV' at the start of its name does not mean that its a clone of Creed Aventus. Let's get this out of the way before we all go rushing out to buy yet another Aventus clone. This is more like the lovechild of Hacivat and Oud YasYas. The opening is Lemon Verbena with a touch of Ugli fruit with a very bright patchouli, green notes and some conifer, very smoky leathery oud and jasmine. I'm also getting a blast of iso-E super carrying this into the breeze. There's also a hint of oakmoss and some birch with a very lightly applied musk. I don't get any pineapple at all from this one. The dry down for me is quite lovely and this is going to shine in late spring /summer. The citrus lasts longer than most. This is a perfect layering fragrance that goes well with a grassy vetiver and deadly with IM L'Eau D'Issey or similar citrus aquatics. Layered with Rose has hints of Roja offerings. Blue jeans, crisp cotton shirt, hood down, Erykah Badu on the stereo drive to the coast to catch the sunset. Smoky jazz in a scent. Lovely!

In regards to the oil: it's heavily synthetic however not quite inoffensive it's a very harsh oud citrus patchouli opening that certainly makes me think of household cleaning sprays but as it dries down this starts to smell a lot like green sichuan peppercorns/prickly ash to me, it has that citrusy earthy scent of prickly ash oil you can find at Asian grocery stores. As time progresses I begin to detect what seems to be oakmoss. I wouldnt say that I'd classify the opening as lemon verbena as others have below and I say that as someone who has a shrub of my own in my yard but maybe it comes through moreso in the spray than it does here in the oil, but there's definitely something green and woody. I dont see myself using this on its own however I think it has some layering potential.

Oil Version: I wanted to pull this off, but I don ́t think I can, on me this smells very masculine. I wouldn ́t classify this scent as truly unisex. At first applied you get the fresh, sweet lemon with musk, this beginning is what has more of a tendency to being unisex, vibe a bit similar to CK One. The drydown is much more complex and sour, patchouli and musk with lots of aromatic woods. The drydown convinced me that this fragrance is moreso for men and some ladies who can pull it off. A very expensive smelling, good composition of very good value, just not for me. But if you are curious try it! The price makes it worth it, maybe you will find a gem in this one!

Oil version. I don't think this is supposed to be an Aventus clone, although it is in the same ballpark. It lacks any smokiness, and quite frankly the lemon is not sexy at all. It has a strong, fresh, "cleaning product" smell. However, I have to give this oil major props for having such incredible performance. Lasts all day and projects strongly, and the lemon note is strong the entire time! I don't believe the lemon note is good enough to justify wearing this alone. However, I can imagine that this will be a fantastic layering option... perhaps even with Aventus clones to give them better performance!

Pretty much Aventus for Dirt cheap at first on opening I thought it wasn't even slightly similar but once it dried down and I started getting whiffs of it from a distance it smelt pretty spot on, doesn't seem to project to strongly on my skin maybe a foot off skin but it varies throughout the day as I've got the oil so keeps developing as it drys and gets warmed up would definetly recommend for the price I'll probably layer it under my Explorer for a bit more longetivity, explorer for that initial projection then hopefully the oil will carry it further and add some depth

I tried the Oil version of this fragrance. The first hour is a Aventus kind of vibe, but while it develops a little bit, it becomes more and more Aventus. First hour (or maybe just half an hour) there is a note, which bugs me (oud?). This note gets more into the back and the Pineapple-Aventus style gets more to the front. Of course it's not a 100% clone, but really a great cheap alternative. Blind buy worth it? Definitely! 6ml for around 4€. UPDATE: After 14 Hours I am still able to easily indentify the oil on my skin!

This is a review based on the oil. Has a lemoney opening and lacks pineapple in the top notes. I can really get the smokiness more when I dilute with perfumers alcohol and spray it. The drydown is more earthy, harsher, pungent than the Aventus I'm familiar with. Lasts over 12 hours with very good projection. A 6ml bottle costs a few euro so extremley good value for money!

Nabeel and Al Rehab are years ahead of many designer houses such as Lacoste and Hilfiger. This is a long lasting cheap gem that gets compliments. Sillage,projection and longevity are out of this world. That's what we wear frags for right,to get noticed in a positive way and Avenue clicks all the boxes. Check out Macho Man by Nabeel if you have not.

I have never smelt Aventus so I can't comment on that similarity, however, it smells good, great even, especially for the value, it is a winter scent in my opinion and is a very masculine and quite 'gentlemeny' smell, definitely very oudy and musky, quite lemony, a relatively safe buy for winter. If you like musk, you will like Avenue.

This is very potent fragrance, even perform quite good in outdoor conditions. I am not a fan of aventus, but as this is quite cheap and very potent and manly fragrance, people who like aventus DNA can give it a try. It's worth every penny.. But synthetic though initially, hit dry down is okay..

This is the cheapest Aventus clone out there. I have the concentrate perfume version. It's synthetic and performance is underwhelming. But can you really complain at this price. I keep the roll-on bottle in my pocket to reapply when my CDNIM is fading.

Roll-on Attar (oil): About 60-75% Aventus clone. Has that fresh lemony opening and a smokey drydown. But a bit creamy. Nice to have as an cheap add on for layering. But kind of chemical smelling. Not as close as a clone as CDNIM Pure Parfum.

For the oil roll-on. So close to aventus. Best value to price ratio perhaps ever.

Its nice but Its very smoky I wish it had more of that fresh Pineapple note.

For the roll on version, it smells of a confident man who knows what he is doing. Mass appealing. I'm surprised how well-blended this is for the price. The opening is masculine and lemony with fresh green notes with a tinge of smokiness. It smells natural and well blended. The drydown is smoky and woody. Projection is pretty strong but not over-powering. It lasts 8 hours on my skin. Overall, I give it a 7.5 and not higher because I feel the scent is pretty common. I think it's suitable for the more mature men 30 & up. I will match it with a long sleeve shirt at work, or a polo T on an off-day.

This one smells so good. Non-offensive and lemony. I have the roll-on oil. The downside lies in performance and longevity. It is weak and doesn't last long. Too bad.

Scent is good but doesn't last more than 2hr...

Last time I try any thing similar to Aventus, seriously. Not nearly as bad as my Insurrection II Pure experience. At least this one I didn't absolutely hate it. At first it's OK, but the burch note gets extremely irritating, I hate that burch! I have tested Aventus at a Creed boutique and it smells...OK...I guess. Better than this, at least. It is just beyond me the hype around it and all the other companies trying to make a clone of it. This does last a super long time, like beast mode with just a little bit. I have the 6ml roll on and barely used any. 10 hrs later and it's still really strong on my hand. Got to the point I wanted to wash it off as I didn't like the smell anymore. But, it was still there even after scrubbing. So, you definitely get your money's worth with this one...which is already a great bang for the 5 to 6 dollar 6ml roll on that you barely need need to dab on to project and last forever! But, I'm definitely not gonna reach for this one. And do me a favor, please don't wear this one around me...that burch note is just repulsive! I'll find some random old dude to give it to...it'll match the vibe I get off this. If you want to smell like smokey old dude, get some of this!

I have the 6ml roll-on oil. It is *similar* to Aventus, but certainly not an exact clone - the spray version might get closer to Aventus but I couldn't comment for sure as I've never tried that format. Maybe because it's an oil, the smell is a lot denser and heavier than Aventus; be careful how much you apply as it will get stronger as it heats up and begins to disperse from your skin, I've felt nauseous from overdoing it and can't really stand the stuff anymore as a result of the negative association! Taken on it's own merits, I find it to be a very potent and tenacious lemony citrus, roughly blended with synthetic and slightly smoky patchouli, woods, and a touch of floral. The notes are a bit garbled for me though, and this certainly wouldn't be my favourite Al Rehab (my current fave is probably Sultan).

This is the third Creed clone I've bought from Al-Rehab, and as with the other two revies I've done, I cannot compare this to the real thing as I've never (and probably never will) own the real thing. Just too damned expensive. This fragrance is starting to make me think that some of the Al-Rehab fragrances just react strangely with my body chemistry, because compared to some of the reviews on here, this is a NOT a pleasant fragrance to me. It has a smell I can only compare to lemon pine-sol; lemon, herbal, earthy, and medicinal as can be. No. Just.... no. I'm sorely disappointed with this one.

Al rehab are cheap, they can be hit or miss. When they are a hit, they really are a hit, but when they are a miss they really are a miss. This one is a miss: cheap strong citrus, metallic synthetic effect, i strongly suspect there is ambroxan in it. It lasts ages and fills up a room (roll on oil). This is a zero clone of Aventus, nothing in common at all. 2/10. If you want al rehab hits in quality scent order: Dakar, Secret man, Choco musk, Champion Black, Zahrat Hawaii, Silver, these are literally very good quality fragrance.

Opening and mid is heavenly. Just like smoky batch of aventus. Base though? The worse I have ever smelled. I don't think I have ever smelled so much contrast in mid and base notes

Roll on oil review. Well today's my first wear of Avenue and I've had it on for 3 hours so I'll update this after a full day wearing. So far it's ok but not nearly as good as my other AL Rehab favorites Lord, Cobra, Superman, Dakkar, and many others. In fact I have about 40 fragrances from AL Rehab which far and away has become my favorite fragrance house. You simply can't get a better value in the market. As for Avenue, it's shares resemblance to Aventus but its different and not as good IME so far. I do get a lime fresheners but it's a little synthetic almost like lime Lysol but very slightly. I agree with others that this is a beast... it smells as strong as when I first applied just small rolls on sides of my neck toward the back. For a measley $4 this is a no brainer because some guys are falling in love with this fragrance. It's masculine so I wouldn't want this on my wife I prefer her to wear feminine scents and she does as well. Guys, give Avenue a try a few of my friends have commented it's an alpha male kind of smell. It's definitely more of a summer fragrance. Update: The dry down on this is hideous! After my review I showered to remove Avenue because I was going to the gym and didn't want to choke anybody out. However, about half way through my workout I got this strong chemical vibe that was disgusting. Even worse, it wouldn't go away and lasted my entire workout. I showered again at the gym and later that night I was still getting whiffs of that chemical scent. I have to pass on this. Maybe I got a bad batch.

Bought this today,the oil version. It is not unisex imo it is a scent for guys and according to the notes u would think it is a scent for the realy cold winter nights but far from it.Cant find the resemblance to Aventus yet. Maybe the second wearing. What I did find is that the first few hours is extremely fresh citrus almost like Davidoff cool water summer fizz which I have. In the later stages it becomes more spicy but still very fresh. So far it has been 9 hours and it smells like I have just put it on. So longevity is enormous with this one. One on my neck and behind the ears and one on my wrists and My girfliend said that I have put to much cologne and she could smell me from 10feet out in the open. So projection is kinda beastly for a fresh summer scent. It is 3$ for a 6ml oil. It is a nice fresh scent all comparations aside and have a truly great performance. Blind buy worthy all the way.

@justanil it is indeed oud and the smelly kind too.lemony ,piney,green,citrusy all in one and at once.i would never buy aventus because who am i kidding?if aventus smells better than this then wow!the oud alone in this oil roll on is incredible and quite amazing really.makes one wonder just how much oud is used. i am waiting on armaf club de nuit and am gonna be blown away i just know it.i really like the oud and could smell nothing but oud after i showered. update: i got the club de nuit and this stuff has most of the similarities of club de nuit.still dont know zip about aventus but i am certain it is a great cologne.

I agree with the below review. It has the Aventus vibe but it doesn't have the pineapple Its musky and the smokiness is there though I would say it's almost identical to Ilum Dean Fresco minus the pinapple and add lemon instead. Very close. . It doesn't have all the synthetic woodiness that Insurrection pure II has. It has a beautiful piney coniferous note that smells so natural.. Its a very very nice frag for 6$ and it satisfies my urge to buy another bottle of Fresco without being 40$ If you wanted to try Fresco by Ilum Dean. Buy this instead. Almost identical and this one lasts a bit longer. Just buy it!

So..very interesting. This starts like a very natural lemon juice not synthetic for a second and after 2 minutes a smokiness comes and it developed but it is more a very strong version of lalique white at the start which is very butifull and the quality is of a niche house, after 10-15 minutes the lemon calms and melts to a fruty vibe and then you get aventus but I judge it for its own, this is a brilliant parfum .. its like the armaf club de nuit intese man without the alcohol and more power. this is a quality oil! its a great great scent and it is a crazy bargin just bare in mind its very strong .
