How long does Aventus last?

Most wearers get 8-10 hours on skin, with the smoky-woody base lingering longer on clothing.

Is Aventus good for everyday wear?

Yes. The smoky-fruity profile works in the office and at night, though the opening is loud, so apply lightly.

Why do batches smell different?

Creed has released Aventus in roughly annual batches since 2010, and natural ingredients shift the fruit and smoke balance slightly between them.

How does Aventus compare with Sauvage or Bleu de Chanel?

Aventus is smokier and fruitier, with birch and ambergris; Sauvage is fresher and more peppery, and Bleu de Chanel is cleaner and more citrus-woody.

What concentration is it?

It is an eau de parfum, so it is stronger and longer-lasting than an eau de toilette.

About the Creed Aventus for Men EDP

Creed Aventus is a men's eau de parfum in the smoky-fruity chypre family. It was composed by Olivier and Erwin Creed and launched in 2010 to mark the House of Creed's 250th anniversary. It is marketed as a men's fragrance and is also worn by women.

It opens with pineapple, bergamot and blackcurrant. The heart brings smoky birch and rose. The base settles into musk, oakmoss, ambergris and vanilla, which leaves a soft, leathery skin scent.

The fragrance is strong in the first hour, then settles to an arm's-length trail. It lasts 8 to 10 hours on skin and 12 or more on fabric. It suits all seasons, with Spring and Fall as its peak, and works for business, evening and date night as well as daily wear.
