Poseidon's Elixir 2.0

Poseidon's Elixir 2.0 is the only dupe I've ever bought that reminds me of my 17N01 and 17Q11 batches of Aventus I bought in 2017. THIS is basically that juice. Almost identical nosefeel. Only dupe I've ever smelled that made me feel it's actually Creed Aventus. It opens and dries down like it, but smells higher-quality, even when it finally turns into a skin scent. It's sad that I paid so much for my F000308 batch from 2023, which is a weaker, flatter, cheaper-smelling version of Emperor Extrait from Parfums Vintage, which I also own. I like PE 2.0 more than Emperor Extrait, which is crazy, because that is made with expensive ingredients. Dua is the real deal, and I regret avoiding the company for years due to reading bad reviews that in the end, did not align with my reality. I'm legit impressed! If they use cheaper, pre-mixed oils like a lot of people accuse them of doing, it doesn't matter to me one bit, because the end result to my nose smells more expensive and complex than the original fragrances I have. What is the point of being pricier and higher-quality without any olfactory and performance advantage over cheaper, lower-quality? The higher price and higher quality are nullified and those definitions lose their meaning. All four dupes I got smelled better than the OG scents. Four out of four is 100% hit rate. If you've never smelled Creed Aventus, start here. There is nothing better in the original than in this juice. I promise you. Just get this. Save your money. I wasted mine already!

The best Aventus clone on the market imo, and easily the best Aventus clone put out by Dua imo. It’s based on the fruity batch of Aventus. And it reminds me of the 2018 B11 batch of Aventus. Not as Smokey as other batches, the pineapple and apple are dominant. This batch is a compliment monster.

Looking for the fruity F batches of Aventus that have vanished off the market like an absentee father? This is the closest thing to it. I promise you. This is literally everything I wanted the original to be to me. Will be purchasing a full bottle of it either 30ML or 100ML.

I've recently bought a few Dua Fragrances after only buying Poseidon's Elixir 13ZZ for years from them, which I love. I was in the mood to try new things so I picked up Elixir 2.0 among others to broaden my exposure to this house, which I have always found interesting. Perceptions mean nothing to me. I only care about what I smell and what my own opinion is. What I can say is that this is very very good juice. It's not 13ZZ, it's got way more smokey elements to it. Definitely has that Aventus OG dna. I actually think this reminds me of Mancera Cedrat Boise or Cedrat Boise Intense. Not sure which one but definitely comes off my skin similar to those. This is a very versatile profile, I think I'm going to enjoy having this.

I haven’t tried the other Poseidon variations, but I have tried the OG and it does indeed smell like it with enhanced fruity notes.
