I like to think 1000 years from now some high school student will be tasked to analyze ancient RU-vid videos and when the unsuspecting soul encounters fragtube they’ll wonder who “Jeremy Fragrance” is and why he’s mentioned in almost every video. LOL Anyway, nice video, George. Looking forward to the next 90 and whatever your next project is.
Better in what way? CDNIM lasts longer on the skin and is stronger than Explorer. Maybe too strong. But side by side, Explorer smells like its just much higher quality. Its less synthetic and simply smells more expensive. I own both and I prefer Explorer.
Original Vibrant leather edt, Parfums vintage vanilla intense, parfums vintage emporer edp, CDNI and cedrat boise my top 5. Looking forward to smelling the intense version of cedrat boise.

Your adherence to Eau des Merveilles is well-founded and appreciated; completely underrated. My girlfriend wears it and smells delightful. It's her respite from the sickly-sweet perfumes typically are directed at her gender. It's fresh, bright, and such a pure citrus that holds up well in high heat. The Merveilles bottle design alone is a work of art.
Great video and I enjoyed it and Creed Aventus is one of my favorite fragrances of all time it's a 10 out of 10 in my opinion and I like Mont Blanc Explorer and Mancera Cedrat Biose as well and have a blessed day
Sir. First...your new(er) look is fantastic. It has been an absolute pleasure to witness the growth and transformation(s) of both yourself and the channel. Second (and as usual)...great video! Your videos are always a breath of fresh, intellectual air. The kind of air found only at the highest of mountain-tops, where ancient philosophers once pondered the great conundrums of the Earth and the stars.
I smelt maybe 5 or 6 Aventus clones or similar DNA’s to Aventus before I smelt the real thing, and the disappointment was real... it somehow smelt worse than Cedrat Boise, CDNIM and Hacivat, and also performed way less than any of them, I got maybe an hour tops before it had pretty much gone. Complete waste of money and stupidly over priced for a bang average scent.
Eau De Merveilles is a lovely scent but I found it too feminine for me. I ended up buying L'ombre de Merveilles instead, which to me is also amazing! Very underrated line in general. Thanks for recommending it, George!
Imho Terre de Hermes Edt isn't new but is definitely a worthy alternative to Aventus as both smell great in the air and have an alluring drydown. I'd go as far to say that TDH edt just leaps ahead in terms of compliments.
I got it for $50 but that’s not important, what’s important that it’s my most complimented fragrance ever. I couldn’t believe how often I was being stopped, followed or approached by absolute strangers, and told how amazing I smell and asked what I’m wearing.
Yeeaa bro its not, cdnim is pure garbage. I am not saying that i am creed aventus fanboy, price is absolute insane and stuff is every year weaker.. but CDNIM hype is beyound me, lavanture is atleast decent, cdnim is pure synthehic mess
MB Explorer is not usable! Shortest longevity I`ve ever witnessed on a fragrance...there are different versions out there, so stay away from that one! And Office is probably the best ambrox monster out there...sooo yeah love you, but this video is not for me :)
I'm sorry but explorer is god awful, the harsh matalic embroxin note is even worse than it is in sauvage, please don't compare the two that's very disrespectful 🤣🤣🤣
youre saying the closest you can get and then youre recommending 'your personal favorite' :) MB Explorer is not the closest you can get in terms of clones. missing the point of this part of the video format
Aventus is the “Stairway to Heaven” of fragrances. It’s a classic, and sooooooo played out. But it will also never get old and will always have fans. Great video as usual, George! 🤟
Played out? By who? The fragcom maybe but not the general public. I've never met anyone in my normal everyday life that's ever heard of aventus let alone creed.
@@fallguy6196 Yeah, same here. I always get compliments when I go out wearing Aventus and everyone that smells it says they've never smelt it anywhere else before.
YUUUUP! Is all I can add. Best description and take an C's A ever. Food for thought, well stated, and accurate. Time will bear you out as it continues to tell the tale. Aka just like StH, Hate to love it, alive to hate it, the constant is "Damn, always enjoyable and hits the spot in its proper time and place. Well stated!
The apprentice is back. He’s got the look back, he’s got his “studio” instead of nature (Fragmental is better at that), he’s cocky, he’s opinionated, he’s crass, he tells it as he sees it, and he educated us. Let’s hope he doesn’t go away again to Hobbit Land.
Are you crazy? His outdoor videos are AMAZING! Silage, 5 Fragrances for an hour, Tobacco Vanille, Oud Wood etc etc Chris is brilliant too, but George is an artist
.. Thank God! I got Eau Des Marveilles even before you started talking about it my lord! At first, I didn't get it. I almost released it to a friend. It would have been one of my greatest mistakes in frag journey!.. Thank you, your highness.
Great vids as always. This crazy year is coming to an end you should do a Fragrance Awards 2021. Rank your best new 2021 fragrance and give the award to the overall best for things such as PRICE VALUE, LONGEVITY, SILLAGE...ect
IO-KO 23 I blindly bought after seeing one of your vids on summer fragrances you loved. It was pricey, but it’s fantastic! Never been so happy to blind buy a fragrance. Definitely like Aventus but with an Italian twist with the sicilian fruits. Montblanc explorer is definitely my go to during the summer. You can’t go wrong with the pricepoint and quality.
I have Explorer and I’ve had Aventus. They are not that similar to my nose. I actually preferred Explorer to the version of Aventus that I had a couple of years ago
Yay, great video. I put Explorer and Cendrat Boise on each hand before watching. The weird thing is, Explorer smells better to me now in than it did in the summer. Still, Mancera all the way.
Explorer smells like the 2020 batches of Aventus thats true but not like the 2011 till 2018 batches 😃 my further adventure would be Nishane Ani and/or Eucris by Geo F Trumper 😉
so i get on here trying to find a clone to this fragrance ( you go on and on ( ok soo is there ?? than you say ummm yumm maybe only 1 or 2 ( 15 min later dang , get with it
Fucking Mont Blanc Explorer man it’s killing me. I’ve tried it a few times now. On a tester strip beautiful fresher and cleaner designer Aventus clone smells great. Spray on my skin..... stinks. Doesn’t work 😢 I’ve only had it happen with 1 other fragrance (Eros flame which is shit anyway) but that too doesn’t work on my skin stinks. I wish Explorer worked.
George, looking forward to your Mirage 23 review video from Manerola Italy, you totally deserve it, Mate. No one could do it like you can, or better than you will. All the best, I'd wish 'good luck' as you had asked, but life is skill not luck, and as the Bard said, "Fortune favors the Bold".
well i have my 3 aventus like scents zara vibrant leather for the gym , CDIM for work and aventus itself for the off days :) i have a decant of cedrat boise but i dont like that one dont shoot me please XD
I got io.ko 1954 i mirage 23 as soon as you described it in one of your videos as italian aventus. You really know perfumes so trusting you completely when i did a blindbuy still felt safe and i did this without catching a whiff of aventus. Id look at Eau des merveilles next given your recommendation. :)
Aventus is supposed to be one of the proper manly fragrances( thus the name) how can u say merveilles is a continuation of aventus!!! Sorry to talk about gender but yeno-just seems to be wrong
