Vespero

Vespero Paris Jeroboam "PERFUME EXTRACTS FOR URBAN NOMADS" This resolutely masculine extract is dedicated to dandyish urban night owls who were just waiting for their signature perfume to come along. A fragrance so insidery, finding likeminded spirits who wear it becomes almost a game, a knowing nod among members of the same elite club. Top : Bergamot Apple Pink Grapefruit Middle : Cedarwood Geranium Leather Jasmine Base : Patchouli Ambery Woods Enigmatic Musks Such a lovely cute 30ml extriat unboxing it. Goes into any pockets or small bag, pouch or purse, just like a travel spray. The opening is so great smelling, yes I get the aventus comparison and dna but Vespero opens with this fresh juicy citrus and apple and then it goes leathery, deep, dark, smoky, and smells more complex and very smooth. It's kinda fruity but has these musculine notes of leather and then comes muskiness amber woods. Very impressive and we'll created scent that's matured and well developed for the right individuals. Wish it comes it larger sizes because if I use this like how I use my usual frags, it's gonna go empty real soon. You'll definitely get the quality in this. I may end up carrying this in my bag daily....

I was going to instinctively say that this does not smell like Aventus at all, until I got hit 30 mins down the line by what only reminds me a lot of Aventus' handsomely certified younger brother 'cedrat boise'. That being said, I remain adamant about concurring that this is a smell-alike of Creed Aventus because it just isn't. Seems a conundrum I can't solve or explain away. In truth, it probably steers more toward my Godolphin PDM than it does to Creed Aventus! Undoubtedly, Creed Av is one of the kings of Men's fragrances and I continue to have nothing but love for it. But this isn't about Creed but Vespero Jeroboam, which to me is equally an absolute gem in the men's fragrance world. At the very least, what Vespero has in common with cedrat boise, C/Aventus, PDM Godolphin and the like, is perhaps only a mild DNA trace and semblance of masterful appeal, but in its own right it is unique and could easily become one of my prolonged top 10 stylishly confident Men's Fragrances in my collection. For me, Vespero J is a 10 out of 10, Straightup!

What a hidden beauty. Nobody talks about this gorgeous concoction and I'm surprised. It's probably the best Aventus like fragrance on the market. Not a clone by any means but in the same genre. I basically smell Aventus mixed with Tom Ford Ombre Leather or possibly Tuscan Leather as is already mentioned. Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomad is the only other fragrance that I know that utilizes Aventus DNA with a good Leather note. Just like Ombre Nomad this one is a bigtime sleeper and worth every penny. Not to mention it's only about $100 which is very low for a niche. Performance is well above average too so you are going to get your money's worth. if you've got Aventus, Hacivat, and Terre D'hermes for warm to cool weather then grab this one and Ombre Nomad for the cold and you have the perfect fragrance wardrobe that is not only classy but also dead sexy. Something about the Aventus DNA combined with a good Leather note makes the women go crazy. Highly recommend this one!!

Vespero is beautiful. Starts off with fresh, juicy sweet citrus notes, a la Aventus. The heart is leather accompanied with florals joining with one of the best musky bases I have sniffed in a while. It's a rich Musk blended with patchouli and amber notes and has amazing depth and longevity. Just blends with your natural skin oils and does not let go. Projection is more well behaved in Vespero compared to the other Jeroboam frags I am testing and it's probably got to do with the citrus notes keeping things a bit quiet. It wafts strongly off you but in arms length radius rather than a 6 foot radius like the others which in this case I find is a good thing as it makes this frag more versatile. Longevity likewise is pretty much all day with 3 sprays. In closing I will keep it simple. If you like Aventus and Aventus with a high quality musky base sounds like something that tickles your fancy, get your nose on Vespero. Loving it.

Vespero by Jeroboam left me speechless. I don’t even know where to start with this masterpiece. From the first spray, I knew it was going to end up as my signature scent sooner or later. It has everything I love. A strong citrusy wood accord that just pulls you in. I honestly can’t pinpoint one note that stands out because everything blends so perfectly together. It is harmony in a bottle. I originally only knew Gozo from this brand, but I asked the seller for something unique and he completely shocked me with this one. I couldn’t resist it. From the very first smell, it became an instant addiction. Vespero smells dense and expensive. It is regal, sophisticated, and powerful. The kind of fragrance that makes a lasting impression without even trying. It leaves a uniquely masculine trail that builds over time and just keeps getting better on the skin. This is luxury done right. A true hidden gem.

The opening is indeed like Aventus, but we are talking about a drier, scratchier Aventus rather than something like Montblanc Explorer which is fruitier and easier to wear. However, the important thing to note is that it definitely isn't a one-trick fragrance - leather moves further and further forward, blending incredibly with the aforementioned smell, before eventually taking control and leaving a similar dry-down to Tuscan Leather. Whilst not completely unique at start or finish, the journey the fragrance follows is actually rather different to anything I've tried. Longevity and projection are really solid, though not beastly (on me) as others have said.

If you replace the resin, saffron, and heavy sweetness in TL with cedar, musk and patchouli you get Vespero. This was an instant love for me, since I never liked TL for it's stickiness. What you get here is a smoky leather, a touch of florals, musk, woods, and just the right amount of sweetness to keep things from getting austere. I don't get the Aventus vibe here, it's more similar to TL but a lot darker, more subtle and classier. It sits close to the skin (like all leather should) so don't expect beast mode performance. I'll be getting this once my sample runs out. I just love it.

I find the apple & pink grapefruit opening to be so sour it's nearly breathtaking. Right away the citruses start playing off the leather and musk heavily. There isn't too much else happening for me. Leather can take on a smoky nuance, which is why peoples' olfactory so hastily defaults to Aventus. Ultimately, I find the star player to be the musk. Smoky leather, tart & juicy fruit, some iso e super just beautifully enveloped in sensual musk. At the price point, it's probably feasible for the average consumer to get this.

This is very nice fragrance I first smelled it in 2017 in Barcelona and in my mind it stuck as raspberry fragrance cause I only smelled the bottle and the cap I didn’t spray it. I purchased it after some time. Instead of apples the opening to me feels really clean/candy like berry/citrus type of smell but soon it becomes very masculine so I gifted it to my dad and it’s so gorgeous on him, he still uses it and it’s he’s 3rd bottle I think. I love it but it’s definitely better on men.

Someone in one of my chats asked me about a summer leather fragrance. Vespero came to mind immediately. The easiest way to describe Vespero is it opens like Aventus (older, better batch) and dries down to a woody, smoky leather, lightly floral Aventus with a smoky musky leather dominating in the drydown. Projection is very good, and this fragrance lasts a long time. Maurice at osmeperfumery.com currently has them in stock. Smells like royalty. Video review here: youtu.be/Z23kkJslUjE

Just got my bottle. The opening is indeed identical to Aventus. However, it is louder and less sweeter. Will update regarding performance. But so far - I love it. Definitely recommended to those who like the Aventus DNA But gave up on it due to performance issues. Update: performance is quite solid. I get at least 8 hours. It projects quite strong for 2 hours and then settles. I must point out that I get noseblinded by its intensity.

There are some scents which is undoubtly masculine but on women's skin melts quite gently. Vespero is beautiful, complex scent and I enjoy it - on my skin, on men's skin... There is perfect balance of juicy apples, bitter grapefruits and bold leather. Geranium adds soft flowery note and makes perfume more elegant, sophisticated. Vespero is definitely one of the best colognes, accurate in every way. Suits perfectly.

I don't get the Aventus comparison whatsoever. This is a true masterpiece that blows Aventus away on every level. This is gorgeous with a deep, dark musky amber vibe that i just can't get enough of. This is blended to perfection. My only complaint is I wish they'd make 100ml bottles opposed to these 30ml. Then again, I wouldn't care if they only came in 2ml samples... I'll never be without this gem.

Just finish my Jeroboam discovery set following The Perfume Guy Jeroboam review.... Loved at least 5 perfumes. This one is wonderful. Delicious and very refined juice...😍👍. Got it for 68 euros inmediatly..... Waiting for good deals in the other ones. 😁 Actually loved the bottle and the name. Vespero refers to dusk / twilight; also refers to Venus "the evening star" ...... Cool

I like this. not sure about the Aventus like certainly not to me. The one it's most like would be Argos Bacio Immortale & of course TF Ombre Leather, definitely more the former than the latter as I find TF's a bit too leathery for my taste. there's a high probability that I go FB on this, the 30ml though.

Very interesting and beautiful combination of three bestsellers Aventus, Oud wood and Tuscan leather. And although these three are great this one is excellent too. The quality is very good, but the sillage is week. It feels comfortable, elegant and classy. One of my new favotites.

An elegant, sophisticated and powerful creation, leaving a trail of a uniquely masculine impression over time... I really like the sweetness that accompanies this complex and ingenious formula... and can definitely see this perfume as a signature scent...

Fresh floral fruity gentlemen scent. Is it remind me aventus: no !!! It may be in same genre but isn’t like Aventus. It’s more floral and leathery while aventus is more fruity and has smoky vibes. Performance is good. Highly recommended.🌺👌🌺

Smells like a 75/25 mix of Creed Aventus and Tom Ford Tuscan Leather. Beautiful fragrance. I'm surprised more people don't talk about this one. It's also very affordable for a niche and performance is insanely good.

This is a hybrid between Aventus and Ombre leather. That citrus-woody & leathery composition is just amazing! I personally enjoy wearing it even though it’s marketed towards men and I get tons of compliments too.
