Now

I’ve had this for 7 months now and just noticed fragrantica added this to their database, so now I can finally review it. This to me is one of the best authentic pineapple fragrances you can buy. Just sweet, fresh, tropical pineapple and nothing like I’ve ever smelled before. It is extremely similar to Qaed Al Fursan so it’s redundant to have both, I heard of Rave Now first though so I got that bottle instead of Al Fursan. Also this isn’t anything like aventus, people love to use Aventus to compare anything that has pineapple in it but this is far from it. There’s no smokiness, ambroxin, or even a similar fragrance profile in my opinion. I also don’t get the negative comments with this fragrance as it’s gotten me amazing compliments when I wear it and the blend is beautiful. Not synthetic or cloying in any way to me which is very impressive for something that is only $20. Honestly if more people in the fragrance community hate on it be my guest. That way I’ll continue to enjoy this all to myself. Definitely a must have for me, 9/10.

Starts off with a blast in the face of pineapple, then dries down to a mix of citrus, pineapple, and creamy sandalwood. It's beast mode for the first few hours then slowly fades until about 10 hours. Seriously someone at work (open air factory) told me they could smell me from 20+ feet away about 30 minutes after application. When you very first spray there's an alcoholic vibe but it fades in literally seconds, just give it 10 seconds before you shove your nose in it and you'll be fine. This layered or mixed 1:3 or 1:4 with cdnim is a wonderful combo. (1 rave now to 4 cdnim)

This one and Al Maknoon Silver are the two must have fragrances from Lattafa for all Creed Aventus clone lovers. As you probably know Al Maknoon Silver is a straight up Aventus clone with a very strong smokey leather note, however Rave isn't exactly a clone, but actually a very important layering tool for all Aventus clones. This gorgeous fragrance officially solves the problem of how to replicate the famous Aventus pineapple note in all clones. This is pretty much groundbreaking and hasn't been achieved before. Please try it for yourself and you will fall in love.

I think I'm gonna flip if I read another poster saying in a whiny complaining voice "This does not smell like Aventus". Maybe if you've done your research you'd know this is not similar. If you love your expensive niche perfume so much just grind your teeth every payday and pay up to buy your Creed's or Marly's instead of coming here and complain how you a bought a cheapie and it's not up to your standard or worse like the nonsense I'm reading here that the scent is not at all Aventus. It's not the same.

Una piña dulce jugosa con un fondo de madera, es lo que siento. Yo pensaba que este perfume era para poner en días de verano, grave error, el aroma me hostigó demasiado, me dio nauseas, tanto que pasaron unos meses para que yo lo pueda usar de nuevo. Donde más lo disfruto es en noches de verano cuidando las atomizaciones y en días de invierno. La duración en piel unas cinco horas, en ropa unas ocho-diez horas, proyección moderada de 40 minutos, estela moderada.

Say what you will about this, but attractive women seem to love it. ONE SPRAY IS ENOUGH. I enjoy the strong pineapple smell, it's perfect for summer, or warm climates/weather in general. It quite literally lasts all......day.......long..... For the price, you simply cannot beat this. If you get away from the "oh, it's trying to be like Aventus" and just appreciate it for what it is, you might enjoy it. Maybe others received a bad batch; I sure didn't.

Huge pineapple bomb, I get a fruit cocktail, pineapple, a little musk, and a little birch. it has a sparkle in the air that I like. longevity is pretty good, around 6-8 hours, and it projects moderately. great for layering, add to asad to round out the spices, add to eros flame to boost the citrus opening, and add to any freshie to boost the citrus and performance. for the $29 Canadian i got it II love it and the people around me like it too.

Layering MONSTER All the fragheads on here hating on it because it ONLY smells like pineapple, and thats true. This is AMAZING for layering, the best pineapple I've ever personally smelt, when I layer with CDNIM smells heavenly. For 20 bucks you can't go wrong with this. Wearable on it's own too, especially in the summer the bright juicy pineapple will leap off of your skin, youthful scent. 10/10 for the price easily blind buy worthy.

Well, it's not a very complicated scent. You get a very synthetic opening for 5-15 minutes, then the smokey pineapple projects well for an hour at arms length, and then it becomes skin scent for like 6-9 hours. At dry down, it smells sweet and earthy. I'd recommend to go for Club de Nuit Intense Men instead of this if someone is looking for performance honestly. This cologne is good for gym at best.

Absolute banger it's funny how the performance ratings are so low.. People must be going nose blind as I did... Then I sprayed on my gf about 8 sprays and wow its a beast with beautiful sillage and projection for 8+ hrs no BS perfect all weather scent that has lasting power I love it copped a few bottles ps everytime I wear it I get compliments 9/10 🔥

Really juicy pineapple pretty much very linear js juicy pineapple all the way. Lowk I hate aventus dna cus of the woody dry down but I love the pineapple. So it's a really neat pineapple underrated scent. I would say it's more male but Im pretty sure it works for a female too. Lowk pretty underrated blind buy safe fragrance

The most amazing pineapple bomb fragrance out. The opening is like smelling a fresh cut pineapple completely soaked in its own juices. Performance and longevity is okay-ish but the opening is simply amazing. If you can get it at a good price this is a no brainer for a lover of a strong pineapple fragrance. Sweet and juicy.

It smells incredible, like everybody said, sweet juicy pineapple. On my skin lasts over 12 hours, strong sillage even after 8 hour mark, it's true I'm giving 8-12 puffs, projection 1.5m - 2 m first hour, after that at arm's length, I will buy another bottle. It is a little sweet, I could wear this all year around.

Very strong (and realistic) pineapple scent at first spray, smells like you just opened a can of pineapple juice. the pineapple scent stayed for about 6-8 hours and then faded off to a nice creamy generic citrus scent. I was pleasantly surprised by how good this fragrance is.

The best affordable tropical pineapple pina colada vibe fragrance . Performance is gooood 7-8hours with decent projection , this is so much better than qaed al fursan, that is syrupy pineapple, and doesnt last more than 3-4h, but rave now smells better and lasts better.

For me this is waay better than Qaed Al Fursan, i get 8 hours on my skin with this one and good projection , with Qaed i got like max 3 hours. But anyways they smell 95% the same. idk it might be my ph getting better with rave now but it is what it is.

I have this and qaed al fursan, while this is sweeter and pushes more initially, it's less performing compared to al fursan. I love both, but al fursan is better simply because it lasts a little longer and it's a thad bit more masculine.

pineapple bomb with a warm musk note with a little of vanilla and other notes like apple a little of bergamote and Rose which made it possible to use it in cold climates, but it is originally a spring perfume that tends towards summer

Starts as a sweet pineapple bomb. Keeps it going for like 30 minutes, then it turns into a little synthetic pineapple, but still smells very nice. Cheap fragrance with a pleasant and refreshing fruity scent. Summer days, come to me!

Dense, thick, sweet, fruity, budget friendly, I can not get enough of this, an amazing summer scent. Performance is there as well. Forget what it is a clone of. Enjoy it. Probably the best cheapie in my collection.

From the opening through the middle notes, the pineapple scent is dominant—fresh, sweet, and juicy. But towards the end, it shifts to something warm and tart; I’m not sure why it turns sour on my skin.

After three years it has become a beast mode perfume. Very close to SNOI CE. Lasts easily 12 hours with 2 hours of beast mode projection. In the air it smells nice a pulls compliments.

I get an overripe, juicy, slightly sour dark pineapple. Extremely addictive scent, surprisingly versatile as well, I could picture myself wearing this is a lot of different scenarios.

This is a fantastic fragrance i just bought it for $22 it was better than what i expected this is worth a blind buy the pineapple scent is just amazing and stayed on my skin for 8 hr

Love the opening, it's Pineapple BLAST. Wearing now, when winter is coming. Easily stay more than 12 hrs on cloth. Still need to check the performance on skin.

This is beautiful, my favorite take on the Aventus DNA. Second bottle, be careful of fakes because my first bottle wasn't an original.

One of my most complimented fragrances ever. the brightness in the opening..the sweetness in the drydown..it's almost perfect

pineapple bomb, 4-5 hours of longevity, 60-90 minutes of projection and then it just settles near the skin for the rest.

Calm lil scent, pineapple on steroids but in a good way? Lasts me pretty much all day with 7-9 sprays. Great cheapie

If you have Qaed Al Fursan, you don’t need this one. Pineapple forward. Great blind buy

Most realistic pineapple I've ever smelled in a fragrance.

Very nice and soft smell. Not to strong very pleasant.

I liked it a lot the smell is just great

Edit: Might’ve gotten a fake. It didn’t pass the verification when I ran the qr code. Feel free to completely discard my review. _____ Linear, dry, musky pineapple is what I’m getting with this one. This is what I imagine Creed Aventus to smell like. It’s not juvenile fruity or gourmand sweet. It doesn’t project a ton but it is masculine, versatile, and safe. It’s a jack of all trade-master of none type fragrance. Not particularly interesting, but not a complete dud either. It can have its place but I imagine there are better alternatives. What’s most special about it is that it’s very masculine while being ‘sweet’ and ‘fruity’. Edit: Indestructible bottle btw.. they did not need to go this hard, literally. The glass bottle is patted with reinforced plastic. This not world-class sturdiness, it’s state-of-the-art.. in terms of what I’ve seen out there so far. The cap also makes a satisfying click sound. The sprayer is subpar tho. Back to the scent: it doesn’t project or last on me at all. My brother was wearing his one time and it was projecting nicely, and beautifully, with him.. although I think he had applied it recently. Definitely not blind buy safe in terms of performance, unlike the scent DNA. I just saw someone few comments above this one complaining about the scent being ‘grown up’. It is true and while this, depending on taste, might not be ideal for a teen, it is not particularly difficult to pull off or anything. The phrase ‘pull off’ isn’t even warranted.. simply put, if you are a man, you can wear this. It doesn’t smell outdated, like something your father would’ve been wearing 30 years ago (like Polo Blue or smth). That’s what I associate with the word ‘grown-up’: outdated. That comment was probably referring to the heavy dose of what I assume is Musk: this fragrance is not ‘playful’ or necessarily ‘fun’. It’s not uptight either, it’s just squarely and decidedly masculine. It’s kind of classical in that way, abandoning the unisex-leaning modern philosophy of men’s perfumes. Edit 2: apparently, Polo Blue came out in 2003.. yeesh.

I was sent the wrong fragrance and that's how I ended up with this scent. I was trying to order Rave Now Women, which I adore. I was slightly irked about receiving the wrong fragrance. Then I sprayed it on the box, took a second to process it, immediately said "no way! This smells so good!" Like 10 times 🤣 A pleasant surprise. It smells just like pineapple juice for me, it has a sugary sweetness like a caramelized pineapple. There's definitely something in the background that reminds me of men's cologne. I can't ever tell what note I'm smelling, it just smells like mens cologne or body wash. I think it's a pretty good unisex scent because of this. I do think it leans more masculine, it's just a very sweet masculine smell. I will probably give this to my husband, because I think it would smell amazing on him. I do like this scent on me though. It's pretty strong and long lasting on clothes. This definitely reminds me of something I've smelled at the mall. I'm not sure if it's the clothing stores where they spray a ton of men's cologne or Bath and Body Works men's spray. Weirdly I like this scent memory. I never get to go out to the mall anymore, so it's a fun memory evoking scent of times when I wasn't at home 99% of the time. Anyways, I think anyone who enjoys super sweet and unisex scents will like this. And you have to love pineapple!🩷✨️ The closest thing I've smelled to this was Shawn Mendes Signature. That one leaned a little more feminine but it had pineapple, maple syrup, and some type of light woodiness. Very similar to this composition.

* Hybrid fresh/fruit fragrance * Good blend of fruit, woody, musky, vanilla, herbal, and floral aromas * Very pleasant pineapple, birch, vanilla and oakmoss notes * Similar to Creed Aventus * Good for older and younger users * Great for Spring, Summer and Fall seasons * Good QPR value * Affordable * Attractive bottle * Yet another in a long line of Aventus clones * Other flankers in the line are more interesting * Might lean too masculine for some female users * Average performer * Redundant if you already own Aventus or a clone of it Rave's Now is the original in this popular line of affordable fragrances. The second you smell it, you'll know right away what it's meant to resemble. It's yet another take on the tried and true Aventus formula. This is a good blend of fruit, woody, musky, vanilla, herbal and flora aromas and you'll get the pineapple, birch, vanilla and oakmoss immediately. There's a reason why this formula is replicated so often -- it works and it works well. This is great for older and younger users to use in Spring, Summer and Fall. Might lean too masculine for female users. Performance is average, you'll have to overspray and respray occasionaly throughout the day. This redundant if you already own Aventus or a clone of it, but it's an affordable and likeable addition if you don't. Recommended if you're looking to try an affordable version of this great DNA.

Opening is a burst of sweet, fresh and juicy pineapple that smells so realistic and delicious, as if you just opened a can of pineapple slices. Or maybe I did, and I just sprayed myself with a pineapple juice bottle. Either way, it smells amazing. I was amazed by how natural, bright and lively this scent was, especially for such an affordable price. I was skeptical about the online reviews at first, maybe these fragrance reviewers got a commission from promoting it. But when I received it, I fell in love with it immediately. I wore it to the gym for two days in a row, and it filled the air around me with its mouth-watering pineapple aroma. I couldn’t even smell anyone else’s fragrance. Or their sweat or their armpit's smell. The performance is impressive, with a strong projection for 2-3 hours and a longevity of 6-8 hours on clothes. The dry-down is less fruity, but still pleasant, becoming more like a clean musky, dried-birch woody and earthy vibe. This is a great fragrance for anyone who loves realistic pineapple scents with great performance. I have been looking for something like this for a long time. This one is a great bargain, and I commend Lattafa for creating such a high-quality scent. It is so uplifting and delicious that it makes me want to eat myself.

For everyone saying this is weak etc .. don’t hate Have some imagination In all honesty this is a nice pineapple fragrance that starts out smelling like sweet pineapple and dries to a light pineapple forward slightly woodsy non smoky Aventus-like. not as sweet as candy, but leaning that way which is to say it’s not tart or sour or stringent it’s fresh, light, and sweet TLDR: It’s a solid tropical version of “Aventus” like if you went to Hawaii and were spending the day on the beach or poolside etc and wanted to smell like a really causal Aventus this is your scent! Evey other Aventus is strong and bold and distinctive which is awesome! That said...where’s the Aventus for beach days and chilling where’s the shorts, linen shirt, and flip flop Aventus? It’s right here and it’s about $20 Plus it’s great for layering some more pineapple into those heavy smoke inspos or other colognes for instance this goes REALLY WELL with stronger with you intensely and Mercedes Benz Select Night to make a like pineapple version of PDM Layton so you don’t smell exactly like everyone else.. ;) Cheers

The longer I’ve had this, the more I like it. It satisfies a very particular place in my rotation; it’s easy to wear, super masculine, inoffensive, likeable, and just meshes with anything and everything. No one will bat an eye at this. The problem with more unique or special scents is that they call for attention.. and that has its time and place and mood, and so does this. When I got it, it was more pineapple and musk but now after a few months the woods are shining! It’s not silky smooth woods— it’s rough and rugged, even sharp woods, which adds to the whole lumberjack vibe. I feel like every man should have something like this in their collection.. not necessarily this dna but something masculine and easy to wear. If you’re into woody scents or pineapple, or if you’re looking for a masculine, lowkey, im-not-a-cologne-guy-but-i-smell-good cologne, definitely try this in a store because you’re getting a good value here for your money. Only drawback I can say is performance. I don’t think I’ll repurchase since I know of a better alternative but I’m glad to have had it.

This was a blind buy for me. After reading about it in an article naming fragrances that were "inspired by Aventus", I came across a bottle at a local Burlington. For $20 I decided it was worth trying. This one smells heavily of pineapple, with some woody undertones. I personally do not usually go for fruity scents, but this one is actually quite nice. I will say, the quality of the product is questionable in my opinion. The black plastic that encases the glass broke quite easily on mine, which led to the cap no staying on, and there seems to be some minor leakage from the atomizer. No big deal, it is still wearable. However, I will mention, after getting about halfway through the bottle, I noticed a very small piece of some unidentifiable debris drifting through the bottle. I can't tell if it is a tiny insect, or perhaps some non organic object. Either way, it smells great, I'm just not too sure about the quality control.

Smells like what if Vibrant Leather Bogoss was produced in UEA. Reminds me of pineapple soda, very refreshing, sweet and 'juicy' that can be worn on hot days. Smells fun youthful and quite unisex. My concern is that it doesn't have too much presence and needs some considerable heat so the fragance can be noticed in the air. Update: It's been about a 5 weeks and the fragance became stronger. Now it has much more presence but it's still on the background, still it's not a very bright scent but it's very smooth and slightly creamy totally safe to wear it on very high heat. I got about 7 - 8 hours and it performs very nicely, not the best but neither the worst and considering the price I paid for this, I think it's totally worth the money, I'm happy.

By the note breakdown you'd think this was an aventus clone, but not even close. Smells nice in it's own right, I will admit. I can't really distinguish any individual notes. Just think sweet, fruity and slightly tropical in that order. Pretty mass appealing, wouldn't offend most, except if you overspray. This performs amazing as well, no overspraying necessary. I'd say this can be worn year round, cuz despite me saying this is slightly tropical, the sweetness would cut through cold like a butter knife. You can get this on discounters for under $40 so not bad at all from a price point. If I didn't have fragrances with similar vibes already, I might have gotten this 7/10

Just received my bottle from Jomashop tonight. Ooooh...now this is nice! It's like a cleaner version of "Qaed Al Fursan" without all the saffron and oud scratching up your throat. This "Rave Now" is pure pineapple bliss!! I'm testing it out tonight layered with "Choco Musk" and "Plum in Cognac"...absolutely delectable gourmand mixture. Delicious to the extreme! Hmmm....I may wear this combo to work in the morning. Yes...I will! Let me prepare a travel sprayer with the same mixture for the first lucky person that asks me what I'm wearing. They will get a 3ml sample to enjoy.

This fragrance is weird in a good way. I expected an aventus dupe looking at the notes but it doesnt smell like club de nuit or other dupes I have tried. It starts with a very nice pineaple but normally aventus dupes turn into a more masculine woody smell after some time, this fragrance stays at a sweet pineaple. Its like changing the woody notes of aventus to musk and vanilla. You can definitely still get a moss smell in the dry down but still smells sweet.

Desde luego es un olor agradable con una nota de piña q predomina bastante. Está fragancia es bastante similar a qaed al fursan pero un pco más sintético creo q hubiera preferido comprar qaed al fursan pq es más natural y bastante similar, os recomiendo más la otra q está pero igualmente es una buena fragancia bastante versátil q podrías usar en tu día a día. Además su atomizador no es muy bueno y te puede chorrear por la botella o tapa y dedo al atomizar

3/5 ripe pineapple with musky animal body, quite addictive, used half a bottle and gifted it, because there is not much else to it. It suits bad weather, the longetivity and projection is mid, and the presentation is quite bad, a bulky plastic case, I had to pick the bottom to get the glass bottle out, now it actually looks and feels nice in the hand. retesting this after 4 months and now the ambroxan chem is pungent and annoying

Andy's wig left a great review below. In my experience, this is a lighter and brighter take on the pineapple-citrus powerhouses we all love so much. Good projection and lasting power. Floral notes and musk keep it less obnoxious than a Black Exces/clone (Zara Gold, Armaf Nero). I wish I got more Birch but instead I get soft woods. Excellent for summer wear when you want less citrus but nothing cloying. Great job Lattafa/Rave!

A good fragrance for those who love fruity notes. Do not mess in comparing this perfume with those moderately sweet , fruity perfumes. Good for spring and fall season. Moderate projector. (Can be called a Creed Aventus flanker but not fully ). It has a high amount of sweetness and is not that smoky. Don't take it in a wrong way but for the fragheads like me who love sweet, fruity fragrances , this works like magic 🪄✨.

It’s not an aventus clone!!! This has a nuclear pineapple that is sweet and leaning on the syrupy synthetic side of smells... you definitely should know what your getting into with this, it’s a nice pineapple with a crazy projection. Scent: 7/10 Projection: 12/10 Longevity: 8/10 For the price ($20), it’s pretty good, and it’s from Lattafa, so you really can’t go wrong!

I can see the comparison with Ramz Silver. Similar but more fruity with the faint smell of pineapple. I like it and although I mention Ramz Silver this is not the same. Maybe 60 to 70 percent same. I like it better though as it is not as sweet and is more mellow. As with most fragrances from the middle east for me there is something in it that keeps me from loving it.
