Aventus

  • For men
  • Eau de Parfum
  • 2010

An icon of Creed, Aventus owes its reputation to its unique contrast: a fruity, sparkling pineapple in the top, a heart of smoky birch and a base of oakmoss and musk. A charismatic, ambitious fruity woody, which has become one of the most imitated perfumes.
