Advent For Her
I'm in a writing mood at the moment and I'll give you a few sentences about how I perceive the fragrance. Important: I don't wear it myself, my wife does. I gave her a bottle as a blind gift about three years ago because I really liked Aventus - but since my 2016 bottle has become very smoky, the euphoria of days gone by has somehow faded. BUT!!! ... Yes, we'll get to that later
It's strong and really thick. I mean, my dearest takes three squirts. And here we have Advent in the house: once the scent spirit is out of the bottle, it can't be dispelled so quickly. Up until a few months ago (and this is probably the norm), the similarity to Aventus fo Him was there, but not overpowering. I perceived the fruit differently, especially the pineapple. It was definitely riper and more opulent and very pleasant. Also clearly feminine. Wearers (you can only be wrong about that): Over 30s.
Back to Advent: the fragrance conquered the bathroom in just a few moments. When "she" went downstairs to the kitchen, I felt as if she was dragging a trail of fragrance behind her. I have NEVER experienced a fragrance with such a pronounced sillage. The stairwell was totally taken over. I might be able to compete with "Black Gemstone | Stéphane Humbert Lucas" - most other fragrances fail here.
Madness! I go down to the first floor because it smells so nice here. And lo and behold, my wife has already been gone for a few minutes. But Aventus For Her stays in the house for a while longer. Great!
Now to the but: the fragrance has changed in the meantime and what can I say: it now smells like my Aventus For Him in its best (and my favorite) years. So not exactly, of course.
The fragrance spirit from the bottle shows its true face or its true DNA. However, the sillage has also receded somewhat. You simply can't have everything. Storage: The bottle was always in the bathroom, never directly in the sun, but also there in summer (under the roof!). I can't explain it.
I've been tempted to steal the bottle from her several times. However, it's good for the house if I take something from the Explorer when my son needs it.
Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
You'll have to decide for yourself. I find the fragrance very beautiful, unusual and it has a powerful signature. Wear it at a seminar and people will at least remember you by your nose. I don't know why the fragrance only has an average score of 7.1 here. But hey - it doesn't matter. That's subjective after all.
The fragrance definitely has character - and what a character. For that alone, the word character should be gendered (no, please don't discuss this in the answers - boah, the review is meant to entertain you).
It's so good for me that I bought an older batch here a few months ago

buy me, you blockhead
... the bottle said to me. Well, not really. It was more of a self-talk in my head after reading some reviews. So I ordered and tested it.
When sprayed on, the fragrance is extremely round and has no rough edges. Yes, wood and the spices described. It puts you in such a good mood that you want to spray two or three more times. I like it!
In comparison with Alex 2: No, it just doesn't quite come close. It lacks the spices that are much more prominent in the Xerjoff. But that's really bad. But if you like the scent, it fits!
I don't notice a big change. In fact, I don't even notice it after a few hours. I have to sniff the shirt. Too bad, but then again "hiss", "hiss" ..... "ZischZischZisch".
i can't really imagine wearing the fragrance (which I really like) all day, for example at work. Maybe in the home office. I wouldn't want to take a sampler with me. But that's also due to the many alternatives I have. If you don't have that many fragrances or simply want/need to watch your budget, then this is a very wearable composition.
If you can try it, definitely go for it. Blindbuy next to Sunrise from Zara also conceivable here.
P.S.: Incidentally, Tobacco 4 is much more potent and lasts a whole day on me. Maybe maceration? Or Zara can also produce fragrances that last longer than a Hubba-Bubba.
P.P.S.: While we're on the subject of ALEX 2-Dupes. I also have the DUA "The Conqueror | The Dua Brand / Dua Fragrances" and it has a bit of a kick-butt factor. Some spicy note (curry? coriander?) clearly stands out - reminds me of the opening of "Fate Man | Amouage", which I used to like a lot. Very (!!) potent dupe that you can also smell over several rows in the stadium.

Plum jam deluxe
Who here likes plum jam? Yes? - Then THIS is your fragrance. The must then simply be ;-)
After I was mostly disappointed by the Amouages of recent years, I have also started here first only with a sample. I had the fragrance for 160 USD already in the cart - aargh! Anyway: The first time I sprayed it on, I had an experience like the first time with Epic, Memoir or Jubi. Just great, soft, velvety, balanced and thoroughly harmonious (look at the ancient Greeks, what ideas they had of the harmony of the body - here as a fragrance).
Overall, rather sweet; with the pick out and the accurate designation of the components I do myself difficult. You might as well have a monkey throwing at a dartboard. But associations I can: plum jam! That's probably because of the cardamom. Of course, the swill is more complex, but the sweetness with the slight spiciness goes roughly in that direction. The sweetness isn't overbearing, though, and you don't have the impulse to brush your teeth or reach for the aspirin. Just nice.
The first test squirt on the wrist in the evening did not last long. I would have pressed harder. But the next day then a very similar impression: four spritzes applied in the morning and already I could have put on the jam shelf. But I'm afraid after four hours no one would have taken me. Gone, just gone. Well, not quite. But the scent has far too little power for my taste - so no plum bump, I'm afraid. That doesn't have to bother, but annoying for me at that price. And it is very close to the skin - okay, it's nice that the fragrance gets under the skin - but why in the double sense? Since the Stulle with spread has more spatial presence.
The course is rather stable, for me has not done much to the fragrance in the few hours. But this is not at all tragic, the beautiful prelude thus remains longer. Fairly, I must say that my wife has worn at the same time Aventa and that is yes a sillage warhorse.
For what season and occasions? Ui - do I have to write that now too?! Nix for the summer - the fragrance is probably immediately disassembled by the first rays of sunshine. Actually, no matter, but wear what you want and when.
There are said to be people who call fragrances their own, on which they only sniff from time to time. This is such a one and that is not meant pejoratively. On the contrary - this is just art. And you go with expensive paintings yes also not Gassi, or ;-)
Who can, absolutely test times. Just I look at a sample of SHL "Isra & Miraj" - I've never worn, but already sniffed it umpteen times, because he simply fascinates me.
Who still does not know whether he should buy the fragrance, the next time you go shopping, turn to the shelf with the plum jam. An extremely underestimated spread!
