thanks a lot, Cairomerta!
Awesome info thanks! Spices and woods sounds amazing. I can't wait to try that one. I will start hounding my SA. The pinapple note in Aventus scares me a little and with ambergris listed as a basenote I really hope it's not built on the milesime base.

I will be curious to try these.
I think the bottle looks a bit amateur.
Thank you. Creed will also be releasing a 250 year anniversary scent. it will be housed in a crystal flacon and the scent is still not decided. It may be a scent that has been in the vault for a very long time and brought back or it may be a new scent. That will be also released in a few months. The price will be north of $1000.00 from what I hear. Not sure the size but I am thinking 8.4oz
Are you saying Creed doesn't even know what they are going to put in a bottle and sell for $1000 in a few months? I wish I had a business where I could do that and still sell.
I do like a lot of Creed scents so I'm not a Creed hater but yes I do find their business model amusing at times.
cairomerta do you know anything about the now discontinued Private Collection that are now in a vault and will supposedly be released once every 10 years?

Is the fragrance called Aventis or Aventus? The thread title reads Aventis, but the bottle in the photo is Aventus.
Quand on boit l'eau, il faut penser à sa source
Its Aventus... I misspelled it. Its now corrected.
personally i want to try them out but neither sound very appealing to be honest. Hopefully i am mistaken.
You've really got the scoop, haven't you cairo.
I must say, I'm in the camp that doesn't really like the Aventus bottle, but not liking a bottle has never stopped me from enjoying a scent, so it's just a minor thing.
The base notes in both of these sound very tempting.
Thanks!

On another note, these two make use of patchouli, birch and oakmoss, notes which aren't used that much in typical Creed compositions. Another reason to get excited.

I'm exited to try Aventus when it's released, but the bottle looks terrible.
I kind of like the kitchy bottle, but I'm a bit concerned about the Ambergris in the base. Again???????????????????

Definitely looking forward to trying these!
I assume that the thing that looks like a wing (Pegasus was my first thought) is Napoleon's cape. The bottle is indeed a bit over-the-top, but it is powerful - I hope the frag is, too. I've been having terrible longevity with Creed's other Napoleon frag, Bois du Portugal.

I'll try em' when they come out. Can't wait. Also, my mind is failing me right now, but is Aventus the first masculine main-line Creed release in a while now? I can't remember the last one.

I'll just wait till a few BNers try them and give us the scoop on these new fragrances
Thanks Cairomerta for the heads up, I am still trying to muster enough will power to try the xerjoff samples, I am afraid I might fall in love with something I can't afford![]()

Ms. Creed, may I be the first to tell you "Welcome to Basenotes".
It would be really nice to have somebody from the Creed family offering more or less regularly first-hand information about your House's perfumes. We are an opinionated bunch of people, but seldom more evil than any other cross-section of the population ( :.
