Arabia Explorer

Anyone looking at these notes, will wrongly assume this is another Aventus dupe, it is not, it's as if they took the notes, and balanced them in a way, to make a whole other fragrance. the woods and leather are ramped up, no smoke or saffron, you won't get the lemon pledge blast that some other fragrance with this DNA seem to have. this is very office safe it smells classy. performance is good, after a few hours, you get a lingering soft suede type of leather, on clothes can last days.

imagine the freshness from Ysl and put aventus +leather together,blends really nice together none of it is overpowering, Fresh clean out of the shower aventus dna but not a clone.Performance is very good after some time,sillage is remarkable

I got a sample of this with a recent purchase, at first sniff I instantly thought, yet another Aventus dupe, hard pass, I don't like OG Aventus, never mind dupes of it. 5 minutes later, it's not an Aventus dupe. It goes past the Aventus opening and into a more woodsy, leathery, musky effervescent scent - it's actually divine and quite unique once it settles and I'll without doubt be picking up a full bottle. Longevity seems excellent too, I sprayed a tiny spritz onto my hand when I opened my package, and 7 hours later it's still there, and I've washed my hands twice since then. Hidden gem for sure, until today I'd never heard of this, or the house for that matter. I can see why the seller added this, they must know it's a banger even if others don't. Smelling this was a bit like the first time I got my nose on Mancera's Instant Crush. With that I just thought, eww it's a Baccarat Rouge rip off, then it went past that and totally surprised me with how it changed and developed. This is clearly not the same quality of the MFK/Mancera or Creed (saying that I've seen the diabolical feedback the new batches of Aventus have so you never know) but it did have that same effect of smelling like something else at first and totally shifting in a different direction. I'll keep my eye on this house now, they might surprise me again.

For those who have difficulties with leather perfumes, here is an excellent option to change their mind. Since opening the leather is predominant, but not a jacket leather or car seat, it presents fresher and fruity. He immediately sent me in the opening, to the Mancera Cedrat Boise already in the drying, only with less black currant. It also follows the vibe of Monblanx Explorer as well as the comparisons here on the site, but in Montblanc the citrus and black currant are more evident while here the leather is the main protagonist, having the fruity as a supporting. I would use it quietly as a signature, as long as in an air-conditioned environment, but I think it will shine on nighttime occasions. It has a lot of quality for the amount, it would pay twice what they charge quietly. Longevity is very good, fixation above 8 a.m. with moderate/high projection, leaving a good feeling of perfumation. Tip: don't expect to become a review of YouTubers for the price to go high, buy yours right away.

imagine mix Aventus with Ombre leather with less patchouli
