Venetian Blue Intense

I did get a sample of the normal version in the beginning of my fragrance journey. Some reviews online said it had similarities with "Creed Aventus". I remember the smell was very nice and indeed reminded me of "Creed Aventus". The longevity of the normal version was not the best (4-5 hours). So when seeing they had an intense version, i believed it to be a stronger version of the Original. It is in some way, but the notes are alot more heavy and dense then the Original. It's nice, but its not something you would wear during the daytime in summer because its so much more dense and heavy. It lends itself more to the colder summer evening or even fall or sping evenings. I paid 165 euro for 100ml. If you ask me, there are better options if you're looking for a "Creed Aventus" inspired fragrance. The Original venetian blue, is about 130 euro for 100ml and is much closer to Creed Aventus then the "intense" version. But it's not the best performing scent. The packaging and the bottles are nice.

I won this fragrance in a drawing and this here is a banger. I really enjoy the bright green apple the juicy pineapple in the opening... right away I get the spice from the black pepper before it settles into a woodsy earthy smell with the birch and pachouli. In the dry down for myself I continue to get a lot of black pepper paired with moss and this beast last forever on my skin. I wore it to work one day and worked overtime that day... after a 10 hour shift (union plumber) I went across the street to work at the VA hospital for more OT and the guy who I was working with said “man what is that cologne you’re wearing it smells good!”. This beast last the whole day and then some and it smells very very good all the way through. I’m actually excited to get more fragrances from this house. Oh and my co worker purchased a bottle that night online and couldn’t wait to get his hands on it as well.

I am in love with Aventus. A sales guy recommended it to me in a store. I said this is Aventus as soon as I smelled it. I think it is clearly an Aventus clone and he made it very realistic, not other simple synthetic clones. The scent is very close to Aventus, the fruit wood citrus feeling is very high quality and in terms of performance, I see 8 hours on my arm. I will try it a few more times, if its performance is good, I will buy it immediately. I have been thinking of buying Aventus for a long time. I would not pay that money just because of its 3-4 hour crappy performance. It is a great alternative for me.

Initially, you'll notice the presence of Hacivat, but as it dries down, Aventus becomes more prominent. The fragrance boasts good longevity, although it's not a beast mode scent.

The truth: A weaker drier version of Nishane Hacivat. Where the pineapple 🍍 in Hacivat is juicy, this one in Blue Intense is dry. Hacivat is loud and carries a strong sillage. Blue Intense is softer and not as rounded as it's more lively younger brother. I'd still wear Blue Intense to save the more expensive Hacivat. So, I'm not in despair. End truth.

Ciao a tutti, scrivo questa recensione perché sono davvero rimasta colpita da questa fragranza, per non dire che me ne sono subito innamorata 🥰 è un profumo intensissimo!! Il packaging è bellissimo, elegante e c'è molta attenzione ai dettagli, il flacone è blu e lo trovo perfetto come regalo da fare! Consigliatissimo

Wanted to own a piece of this brand for a while, purchased this in another blind buy & im so glad i did.. I think its really nice & apart from the lovely smell its a beast in performance aswell... The price is a bargain also considering its a niche brand.

Out of the 5 I own from this house this is the only one that severely disappointed with its salty and sour lunch meat kind of smell

This smells a lot like Drakkar Noir, and for that reason... I will not be revisiting this particular fragrance.

It's a decent masculine smell, fresh and quite long lasting. Bought it at a discount and I'm not sorry.
