Ups for Mugler Cologne

Fragonard’s Cologne Grand Luxe is good too; not sure if they still retail at Millenia Walk...

Any experts here on Armaf's range of frags? I recently bought the Club de nuit intense men based on online reviews saying its the most popular and closest clone to Aventus Creed.

I owned a decant of the Aventus Creed years ago but i pretty much forget how it smells. However, i am thoroughly impressed by the price-performance ratio of the Armaf CDNIM. Apart from the sharp lemony opening for the first 15-20mins that makes you smell like mama lemon dish washing liquid, everything else is just great. Decent projection and sillage. Crazy good longevity for me. 7-8 hours no issue. Can even get a whiff of skin smell after 12 hours.

So my question is, anyone has experience or able to recommend other Armafs that have equally good performance?

Generally, fresher scents (especially those using citrus) are going to disappear more quickly, and the few suggested aren't known for their performance.

If you really want something that lasts and is fresh, Acqua Di Gio Profumo does last a long time and is somewhat fresh. Dior Sauvage and Versace Dylan Blue are also what you can consider.

Not really an expert, but people are saying Afnan Supremacy Silver is a better clone of Aventus. Prices are a little higher than CDNIM, but if you want to get as close as possible, seems like paying the extra $20 or $40 for the Afnan is better, especially since we're talking about something like Aventus.

the afnan has a pineapple top notes that perhaps more resembles the more fruity batches of Aventus, but the dri down and performance isnt even comparable to the armaf. I'm talking about the widely acclaimed smoky Aventus batches

Can't remember what Starwalker smells like, but One Million and Eros both smell very sweet. I don't remember One Million's sweetness dying down a little, but Eros did do that and the mint became more prominent. Not the best when it's hot as hell, but if you're careful on the sprays, I think it works even in warm weather.

All are okay designers, but I think depending on what you're looking for, there are better options out there.
