Armaf - Club De Nuit Intense Eau De Parfum Spray

If you haven’t heard by now this is a clone of the amazing Creed Aventus. I own both Aventus and this does smell almost identical! Now you’ll have some people say there’s a harsh lemon opening. It’s a bit sharp but not harsh or off putting to me. I think it’s a perfect fragrance! After 10 minutes that opening is gone anyway and then it’s exactly Creed Aventus. This one is magic when it dries down. You have a beautiful smokiness to it. And you will absolutely receive compliments! This one women seem to compliment a lot. The scent trail is beautiful and the performance….forget about it! An easy 12 plus hours! This is one of those all year scents, but actually amazing in high heat as well. It’s fairly cheap for a big bottle, and if you never experienced Creed Aventus, ... MoreIf you haven’t heard by now this is a clone of the amazing Creed Aventus.

This is one of those all year scents, but actually amazing in high heat as well. It’s fairly cheap for a big bottle, and if you never experienced Creed Aventus, don’t even bother just get this, it’s that close. Save yourself a ton of money! But I HIGHLY recommend that you try this out.

Want to smell like Pine-Sol? This is the one for you! But seriously, it has a harsh/brash opening. The lemon and citruses really stand out for the first half hour or so. It dries down to smell the bitter dry leather accords. Clean smoky leather wiped with lemon scented wipes. No but seriously, it just was not for me but every skin is different, it might be for you. Try it out if smoked citrus and leather seem interesting to you. The leather isn't very overpowering as other leather fragrances. Suitable for any occasion if I'm being honest; however I don't recommend more than 3 sprays if you're wearing it for the office, and 3 might be pushing it! Also, spray before you leave the house NOT when you're about to walk in the office.

Armaf’s Club De Nuit Intense, is known as a poor man’s Adventus Creed. At $25 to $35 a bottle, compared to $300 and up, there are some similarities. Yet can I tell the difference? 100% yes. I’ve had experience with both, and can happily say, either will get you noticed plus compliments. That’s wonderful, but these are two totally different fragrances. For what it’s worth, this could be the best bang for the buck, literally and figuratively in the cologne industry. It’s better than a lot, but still it’s not going to smell better than the Adventus. So many dream of this, and while that’s your right, the difference in quality is quite obvious. Yet Armaf deserves credit. This is a fun loving mostly spring and summer EDT. Also it projects a couple feet, lasts 8 to 10 ... MoreArmaf’s Club De Nuit Intense, is known as a poor man’s Adventus Creed.

For what it’s worth, this could be the best bang for the buck, literally and figuratively in the cologne industry. It’s better than a lot, but still it’s not going to smell better than the Adventus. So many dream of this, and while that’s your right, the difference in quality is quite obvious. Yet Armaf deserves credit. This is a fun loving mostly spring and summer EDT. Also it projects a couple feet, lasts 8 to 10 hours, and it is very sexy. Yet what makes me drop it a star is the opening is hideous. Give it a half hour or more after applying, to let this dry down. It smells like a citrusy bathroom cleaner at first, and I was taken aback several times by this ability. Just horrible. On a positive note once it starts to dry down, this one is an absolute bargain. I wear it fairly often, due to its scent and complexity. Also it’s length of service is special. Let’s first take a look at the bottle. The stupid fake chain with the Armaf circle will break off. Also the fake diamonds on this black square shape are laughable. It is one of the worst looking bottles in my collection. A modern art disaster. Yet the atomizer is surprisingly good. You’ll be able to with three easy sprays, to go the distance with this. That alone is quite.an accomplishment in this or any price range. Made in France, this one has some complex notes. These would include lemon, pineapple, apple, bergamot, rose, birch, jasmine, musk, patchouli, and depending on weather vanilla. This is a stack of good notes, and sure it’s a bit synthetic. Yet looking at the price, I’m amazed by how this switches around the notes. They put thought into this, and a lot of times after the monstrous opening, it becomes a lot like mixing Montblanc Explorer Legend with Versace Pour Homme. This masculine scent definitely is solid, but to compare it to high end stuff is a reach that’s not appropriate. People will smell you and like it for the most part. Summer days off or a date are where I recommend this. For the office it’s probably too loud, and in the cold, this is where it’s projection is severely hampered. Versatility is important to me, and this is hindered in that regard. It gets a recommendation, but not a screaming with enthusiasm one. This citrusy bubble gum scent is fun, and there’s no doubt about that. Yet just remember to rate it according to itself, not niche houses that are far superior.

My first contact with CDNI was when I was traveling in taxis and in conversation of perfumes with the young driver he gave it to me to try it because by chance he had it on the dashboard of his car. My impression? Rough Opening, a mixture of alcohol and camphor. However, it is a perfume that you have to give it a second chance, so a couple of months after that experience I did. First day of use: same opening, but things got better a lot and to be honest I did not know how to differentiate the drying between CDNI and Aventus (I had the batch of 2015 of Aventus at that moment) the resemblance was surprising. Second day: I received a friend's compliment: "Nelson, your fragrance smells really nice" this made me really happy. Then, a co-worker told me that in the train ... MoreMy first contact with CDNI was when I was traveling in taxis and in conversation of perfumes with the young driver he gave it to me to try it because by chance he had it on the dashboard of his car.

Then, a co-worker told me that in the train "i smelt on a commuter the same fragrance you wear"... then he asked me for the name of it. Surprisingly followed the compliments rain of the others coworkers including my Mexican manager who wanted to own it immediately. I personally think that Club De Nuit Intense is a good fragrance, extremely fresh, fruity and clean, with a synthetic smoky touch. After several use, its opening do not longer bother me, luckily. My lot is from 2018; projection and longevity are nuclear. With this I do not mean that everyone will like it, do not buy it blindly, however I will make a honest calculation ... -Price: * Aventus $ 450 vs * Club De Nuit Intense $ 28 -Odor: similar -Performance: on par -Versatility: CDNI feels more versatile. In conclusion ... I will always respect Aventus, it is a super fragrance, but given the reasons above, Armaf has created a great "alternative" to replace the "King" if we are economically limited.

Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Eau De Parfum 105Ml Spray

On my first spray of the scent, I immediately noticed that Ralphs Club draws from its predecessorsPolo Red, a past favorite of mine, and Versace Eros another favorite and household name in mainstreamcommercial mens fragrance.Ralphs Club is floral and woodsy but has an oceanlike coolness to it. Lavender scent balancing masculine leather and woodlike aromas. Great sillage that keeps my nose coming back to explore the familiar fragrance notes. Thanks to being an eau de parfum concentrate, once sprayed you can feel the weight of the scent, and it will stick around. A bit heavy to wear first thing in the morning. Id wear this scent in the late afternoon or evening, during the late summer JulyAug into winter.The lavender really holds the stage for the fragrance, it ... MoreOn my first spray of the scent, I immediately noticed that Ralphs Club draws from its predecessorsPolo Red, a past favorite of mine, and Versace Eros another favorite and household name in mainstreamcommercial mens fragrance.Ralphs Club is floral and woodsy but has an oceanlike coolness to it. Lavender scent balancing masculine leather and woodlike aromas. Great sillage that keeps my nose coming back to explore the familiar fragrance notes. Thanks to being an eau de parfum concentrate, once sprayed you can feel the weight of the scent, and it will stick around. A bit heavy to wear first thing in the morning. Id wear this scent in the late afternoon or evening, during the late summer JulyAug into winter.The lavender really holds the stage for the fragrance, it sustains well throughout the middle and base notes. The vetiver pairs well with the dry down into deep cedarwood and sage to make a palatable masculine fragrance with a balance of softness and rawness.The dark Ralphs club bottle design is great, featuring monochromatic detailing and sturdy hardware.Reminiscent of Carolina Herrera CH Men Priv cologne. The glass portion is tinted but transparent enough where the remaining fluid level is visible, unlike past Ralph Lauren bottle designs. The carbon fiber packaging is a nice detail but doesnt add much. I think silver accents combined with the Ralphs Club branding, wouldve complimented this fragrance aesthetic much more appropriately. But I do like the carton and I havent tossed it tossed it yet. The flask inspired bottle would be a great classic added to any groomers fragrance collection. But this isnt a unique fragrance.TLDR A great commercial scent that is going to sell like many notable scents engineered in the past. Ralphs Club is the newest fragrance that fits right along with the Polo Red and Versace Eros family. All three are great fragrances that share distinct qualities which has made them favorites worldwide.
