THE HISTORY OF CREED AVENTUS
In 1760, a glove-making company called Creed started in England. That same year, a pair of perfumed gloves was sent to King George III, who was so taken with the scent that the company became a royal court supplier - of fragrances. Since then, Creed has created a variety of perfumes for different celebrities and royalty.
To celebrate the 250th anniversary of the perfume house, the Aventus fragrance was created and released in 2010.
The fragrance represents strength, vision and success and is inspired by the dramatic life of war, peace and love lived by Emperor Napoleon. The front of the bottle depicts a rising horse with a rider, a classic depiction of Emperor Napoleon, as well as men in positions of power in general.
The fragrance is completely unique, with qualities that are both striking and subtle at the same time. It is fresh and light, but also masculine and deep. It is enough to smell Aventus once to understand why this fragrance is one of the most talked about and appreciated fragrances from the perfume house. A fragrance for those who want to live their life to the fullest.
The fragrance opens with blackcurrant, Italian bergamot, French Calville Blanc apples and sparkling pineapple. The fruity and freshness is accompanied by jasmine flower, woody notes and patchouli, before finishing in a rich and full-bodied base of oakmoss, amber and a hint of vanilla.

A fragrance reaches its full potential when it hits warm skin. It is therefore advantageous to spray perfume where you have a pulse, i.e. on the inside of the wrist and neck. If you only want a subtle hint of the scent, you can spray in front of you and then go into the "cloud". This way you get the scent evenly distributed over you, without it being too sharp. Another tip is not to rub the fragrance into your skin, as you risk destroying the fragrance molecules. Instead, spray a small amount and let it air-dry.
To extend the shelf life of your perfume in the bottle, store the bottle in a dark, i.e. without exposure to direct sunlight, and in a cool place.
Creed perfumes are created with artisanal precision and made with carefully selected natural ingredients. This dedication to quality can result in slight variations between different batches of the products.
This is probably the best smelling perfume ever, I love the scent. But the longevity is the worst. 3800kr for something that only smells for an hour, then you can't sense anything. I looked up the batch number and it turned out it was manufactured in 2015.
One of the best and most unique scents I've tried.
Beautiful
Has grown over the years and I perceive it as the best for me!
I feel like I have wasted so much money. I am really sorry that I bought Creed Aventus at that price. I don't even think it's a perfume; it's like water. After using it for 5-10 minutes, I don't even smell anything. My YSL perfume was much cheaper and lasted for several hours. A big disappointment. Even a deodorant for 50 kronor smells for 4-5 hours. If anyone knows if the product is genuine or fake, please write. Gents replies: Hi. Sorry to hear about your experience with the purchase of Creed Aventus. Aventus should definitely last more than 10 minutes. We are happy to help you investigate the perfume. Contact our customer service support@gents.com, and they will assist you further in the best way possible. Have a nice day. Best regards, Sofie at Gents
Nice summer fragrance.
Just as expected, very good
Smells wonderful on a man
Smells good but needs to be applied about every four hours. Cannot recommend at this price; it should be priced like a cheap perfume because that is what it delivers.
Very good scent. Fits perfectly, but I wish it lasted longer. Smells for about 3-4 hours, then you have to smell directly on the area you sprayed to notice anything. Would have received the final star if it lasted longer.
