What wearers say
“SOTDThis one flew under my radar years ago. Because the price was quite high ($40-$50), I waited until it dropped before buying. I'm an Aventus fan, and this one shares some DNA with the original and its dupes for sure. However, I agree with what someone said: it has a powdery scent compared to others. If you're looking for over 75% similarity to the OG, this is not the right choice.”
“I agree with what Dang Thai said below. To be honest, purchased this because it was Alexander the Great's horses name, which he rode into battle with. How badass is that? Reminds me of a mix between Creed Royal Oud, and Creed Aventus a bit -- and it's not all that strong, nor impressive to wear if it isn't in a very cold atmosphere. Is in the realm of an Aventus clone, name dropped and weeeee're moving on -- is a creamy vanilla vibe I get from this, a bit fruity, but no lasting power to speak of.It's sample worthy, especially if you're on the hunt for finding cheaper alternatives to the King.”
“Reasonably good perfume with low to moderate longevity and moderate sillage. Ideal for spring or fall everyday occasions. Male pefrume without any doubt. Note: for a more radiant, longer lasting smell this pefrume must mature on the shelf for 4+ months.”
