Best Aventus Clone
I state, I'm not a fan of perfumes / clones, but boy guys, it's great!
Yes, it is a clone of aventus, so I do not have the same nuances of the original but paid compliments in equal measure. Despite being a clone, they have reformulated it, I'm talking about the 2015 version made in france, with the silver atomizer. The new 2018 has an opening that tastes less lemon, more pineapple but with a lower longevity tested by me.
Bottle a little 'tamarra with all those glitter, shiny black bottle that does not show the juice inside.
The opening is very sweet, very far from avenutus that tastes like pineapple, to be honest it is not so pleasant, who will stay in the first 10 minutes will not be very happy. After 10 minutes fuck the lemon and approach aventus.Si feels geranium, rose and ambergris very well blended with each other, and a lot but a lot of smoke, and a lot of roast apparently. Perfume very versatile and suitable for all occasions, to be avoided in the coldest months. Sniffed by wrist destroy Armaf and sound barrier, the differences are minimal, persistence and longevity very well the scent for days on clothes, many congratulations, I have many fragrances, vintage and not, but I've never had so many compliments come put everyone will want to know what perfume are you wearing. The price then? very low, compared to the niche version (which has only the price of a niche). 40 euros for a perfume of the kind are very few.The quality will not be excellent but in modern perfumery where is the quality? Buying, I think only because it costs Armaf 5 times? No thanks!

Darkness
Ok, I admit it, it's not a work of art, nor a house born to make perfumes, but ... I like it.
Lalique, famous for its jewels, engages in the world of perfumes and does it very well. Let's start from the bottle, very attractive, dark glass and wood effect cap, a lot of class in this package.
The perfume as said is not complex, three four predominant notes but they do their duty.Open with a very dark and pungent note, accompanied by cashmere and very vetiver, it seems almost a flaker of the guerlain vetiver dark version but attention, we are far from the quality and the evolution of the latter. So a very dark vetiver, seems to cross a forest in dim light after a storm, ideal in autumn and cool months. It remains very moist and gently sticks to the skin. Longevity and projection of painful notes but for a perfume under 30 euros what did you expect?

Potion
A very underestimated scent.Many compare it to the now unavailable gucci pour homme, I think the analogies are minimal, no one will confuse it for gucci. The perfume of the Italian house, is much more mature, knows more than incense and much smoky.
Potion is very valid and of good quality, with eyes on other dsquared perfumes. The bottle that resembles a product by many impressions of what could be the internal juice. It opens with a lot of liquor and medicinal notes, angelica thyme and red mint, and then sweeten, cashmere, patchouli, amber and cinnamon accompanied by high quality musks, sweet and spicy base, very scent of the 80's, but sweetness makes it quite modern.It is now interrupted and I advise you to buy it before the stocks end, considering also the ridiculous price compared to the quality.
I tried the EDP but the longevity is not excellent, so I do not recommend the EDT version

Wooooody
One of the few perfumes still in circulation that I like, with all the limits of modern perfumery. It is almost entirely healthy, but one can not overlook the excellent work done by Ellena. I'm talking about the first formula, that of 2006.
Opening very citrusy, bitter, and then leave room for the benzone and pelargonium, the combination refers a bit 'to the smell of citronella, which together with citrus and woodiness dell'iso and super does not mind at all, but it is an effect that fades immediately, on the skin remains a mature scent, with base a venerando sparkling accompanied by woods (iso and super) and cedar, an earthy atmosphere, very relaxing but not smooth, since the pungent grapefruit and pepper do not fade immediately. Basically, an excellent citrus / woody ratio suitable in all circumstances, excellent durability but very artificial, so in the long term on your skin there is only a synthetic smell.
Today's version has less evolution, more watered down and more openness than mandarin, less bitter. To today, take the current EDP, much closer to the old version and deeper and darker

Timeless
Timeless!
Sweet, but not that sweet cloying spicebomb or similar crap.
It's the male version of angel, another pillar of perfumery, and in fact the analogies are there. Gourmand, woody, sophisticated, vibrant.
The opening is made very sweet by tonka, honey sandal and coffee, but it is all very spicy with citrus and coriander. Very woody base always clean calm and relaxing sweetness.
To say that this masterpiece is a blasphemy.It is like saying that the daisy tastes like basil!
Powerful and long-lasting, ideal in the cold months.
I heard the version today, and the sweetness is very syntetic and watered down, it is worth covering an older one.
