Just bought a bottle of their Adventus copy in Spritz form. I have never knowingly smelled teal Adventus and upon spraying the Spritz I was at first unimpressed. The magic appears upon drydown, though. Amazing scent and it seemed quite familiar.

I definitely like this more than the Bad Wolf scent that I've got BW and AV in.

The biggest problem with the spritz is that it is VERY weak. I plan to get some of their Adventus oil once they have their next sale and probably the dry body oil and shave balm.

I also received a sample of a Sean John cologne in oil form. I was disappointed as I hoped maybe they would send one of their other Creed type scents. I hadn't realized they sent samples or I probably would have requested Green Irish Tweed.

Intense.

I ordered the same thing based on Snoopy's recommendation in a separate thread.

I have been using their oil version so I figured I would just add a little of that to the spritz and let it simmer for a week or so. Overall, though, I have been very impressed with the quality, speed and spot on replicas offered over there.

It hasn't arrived yet but hopefully it will be delivered in the next day or 2

I plan to spray iso e super and then my faux Adventus on all app points tomorrow, and then Overdose. Will see how it goes at work.

Whoo! You have to let me know how that works for you. I've found that the Aventus body spritz works very well with Iso e super. It's amazing how much it aids diffusion.

I am actually using Kane today, rather than OD. At work. Will see how it goes. After spraying the spritz all over this morning the smell seems pretty weak.

Mine came in today and it smells badass at the bottle but seems non-existent 30 minutes after the I sprayed it on my forearms. I kinda expected that though as it is in the 40s now and nothing is carrying very well. I added the small sample of oil and plan on letting it sit for a few days or so

I've not paid much attention to the iso e discussions so I'm not real sure what that is about but I reckon now is a good time read through some of those threads

Give it some time. I've noticed that with a lot of the really popular Fragrance Shop scents that because they are constantly making new batches, it takes a week or two before the scent really sticks around for a while. The body spritz I have in Aventus took about 3 weeks before it lasted more than about an hour or two.

I am thinking of getting the oil, dry body oil, and aftershave balm and combine them with Amraf Club Nuit Intense + pheromones.

Hoping for a sale pretty soon as all I have now is the spritz.

Kane smells super strong and lasts forever so make sure you use a long-lasting cover with it.

It seems like my nose is pretty bad at actually smelling pheromones. Just used my fake Molecule 01 (Iso E Super) and a very liberal dose of Fragrance Shop Aventus spritz and did not seem to get any reactions of disgust. Used about a full pump of Kane distributed anongst 6 app points + a drop of Dirty Primitive pre-mixed with Bad Wolf scent and some Max T 150 under my nose.
