Have you tried: HERMÈS Terre d'Hermès ?

https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Herm-s/Terre-d-Hermes-17.html

gets great reviews for a summer scent, i need to give it a try

Yes, I have a bottle of it. It's ok, not my most favourite. I find it more formal wear, and for an older gentleman.

That said, they do a fresher version of it that I'd like to sample though.

My go to frags in this weather are Coach for men and John Varvatos Artisan Pure. So fresh!

Creed Millésime Imperial is perfect for this heat too, but obviously a lot more pricey. :)
 
Bvlgari aqva has great longevity and projection for an aquatic. Definitely one of the bests.

Terre d’Hermes is definitely a formal / autumn winter scent to be honest. I wouldn’t want to wear it in the heat of summer.

Edit. I’ve been wearing 1 million - lucky over the past few weeks. Had loads of positive compliments off the women at work :) if it wasn’t a 1 million flanker I can’t help but feel it’d be a lot more popular. (Smells nothing like 1 million btw)

Yeah TdH would be quite cloying in this heat.

Green Irish Tweed and Viking are also great summer frags too.
 
Perry Ellis - 360 red for men is basically Acqua Di gio for a lot cheaper.

Haven't had it recently but it was a good alternative for the price. All beauty have it for £20

I’ve read about PE360, sounds a bargain ! Defo on my want list.

Going to a day time party today. Weapon of choice. Aventus (genuine :) )
 
Currently using Both Diesel Only the Brave and Armani Code , I've bene recommended "Amarf - Club De Nuit , Intense" as a nice one to try , but when I looked it up it just appears to be a clone of Creed Aventus. Is it worth getting ? Never used Aventus so really wouldn't know what the hype is about....
 
I had a row about my aftershave last night. I’m fed up with my brother walking into my room and just dousing himself in whatever takes his fancy.

Apparently, I’m well tight.

Yep, club be Nuit (cdni) is awesome tbh, smells just like Aventus. Next time your out in town, go try some aventus, you will release what the hype is about :)

Many will get cdni and use this to save using their real aventus, which they will use on special occasions. It will take someone who knows their base notes to really tell the difference when being worn.

There’s people who sell cdni samples on eBay, give it a try first.

Be careful of eBay samples/decants. You'll be surprised how many aren't actually Aventus. ;)

Yep, it’s al very subjective too as they will state batch specific and those ordering aventus samples may not even have smelt it properly, so it’s smells great to them.

Cdni samples however, you’d be mad to try sell fake cdni lol
 
Have to say after a few days of wearing Armaf Club de nuit I’m not impressed. It does smell 90% like Creed Aventus as soon as you spray it but after 2 hours the smell is completely gone it just doesn’t last at all.

That's why people often go back to the real thing, I can still smell the legit Aventus on me/clothing after 24 hours sometimes.

Yeh that’s true the real one literally lasts 24hrs even after a shower I can actually still smell it sometimes. After all the good reviews of Armaf I thought it would have lasted longer. Maybe I just got a dodgy batch lol

What date is stated on your bottle mate? It's written in black underneath.

My armaf is like that

It’s not just mine then lol. Many of the reviews I read on amazon etc are people saying how strong it is and how they can smell it all day etc which I find confusing. Even if I’m spraying it on me every few hours to top it up 100ml for £25 still works out far cheaper than buying the original again :D
