CREED AVENTUS
What Makes It the Greatest Fragrance of All Time
Written by GlenN lauritz andersson & denis vasilije, fragrance experts
Have you ever felt completely captivated when standing close to — or passing by — someone who smells absolutely incredible? That’s exactly the allure of perfume, and we all experience it from time to time.
A recent global survey shows that men, even without particularly attractive looks, can still have such an impact on women through fragrance that they can momentarily lose their footing and become more or less unaware of time and place. Perfume amplifies a man’s personality and sends a signal that he is organised and attentive to his appearance. One such fragrance is the best-selling Aventus — which we’ll take a closer look at here:
THE BEST-SELLING FRAGRANCE FOR MEN
Aventus is made by the perfume house Creed, which is based in Paris and has a history spanning a full 250 years. Creed has boutiques in many of the world’s largest cities. Aventus is among Creed’s best-selling fragrances — a scent that has achieved enormous success since its launch in 2010.
Your fragrance is your message, your scented slogan

PREMIUM INGREDIENTS
The creator and mastermind behind Aventus was master perfumer Oliver Creed, who drew inspiration from Napoleon Bonaparte. Aventus is therefore a tribute to men’s strength, power and success — a celebration of a life well lived. The fragrance is the result of a blend of some of the finest ingredients in the world, where fruit, smokiness, leather, woods, musk and birch form the main notes. Creed themselves write the following about Aventus: ”Aventus is a sophisticated blend for individuals who savour a life well-lived.”
A GLOBAL FAVOURITE AMONG MEN
Aventus is masculine, stimulating, refreshing, youthful and optimistic. This incredibly dynamic and easy-to-love fragrance has become a favourite for thousands of men and earned the epithet “the king of fragrances.”
