I know people are going to jump in with their hate toward expensive colognes, but this is the best price I've ever seen for Aventus. We get it, you prefer $12 Amazon scents, and that's perfectly fine, but just as some people buy designer clothes when $3 boxers will do the trick, some people enjoy more expensive scents. Both are fine, stop projecting.

what's your source of this being watered down? Did you test a current and previous version side by side?

There are $40 colognes that smell better and last as long. Only reason I have a bottle of this is because my pretentious sister insists on rubbing it in my face that she has money to burn and enjoys burning it

how can we tell if we get an old vs new batch? Or are they all new by now?
every bottle will have a batch code which you can look it up. unless its old stock thats been floating around on a shelf... most batches will be "new"

People like you convinced me to get this, and it's absolute garbage for the price. No staying power. Have to spray at least 10 times to even get a couple of hours out of it. Price alone does not mean quality. It might be expensive, but it has the performance of a $5 counterfeit cologne sold by the streetside in any big city. But I know some people like yourself probably get placebo pleasure out of the knowledge that your cologne and clothes cost an arm and a leg.

Love Aventus but it's played out, overworn, and the original formulation has long since been discontinued and diluted. I still have a few sprays left of the legendary 2011 batch that started it all. That epic formulation of Aventus will never be cloned or reproduced, sadly.

$200 is a very good price for this new 100ml bottle.

I prefer parfum de Marley's stuff at this price range, but that's just me.

Statistically speaking companies that usually get bought up tend to go towards that path of "enshitification"

Don't bother with this. I bought it previously only to return it to the store (thank goodness for their satisfaction guarantee). This is NOT the same formulation you'll experience at a higher-end retailer like Neiman Marcus. Not even close. The testers I sampled at NM last all day. I was lucky if the one purchased from Costco lasted more than an hour. Buyer beware. If you want something very close to Aventus without the price tag, Club de Nuit Intense Man lasts me all day and you can pick up a bottle from Amazon. I get asked all the time what I'm wearing.

Has anyone tried this new Costco batch? I've had the original a decade ago where 2-3 sprays last all day but the last bottle I bought 2 years ago it smelled slightly different and also only lasted about 6 hours so not sure if it was a quality control issue with the batch I last bought or that was the trend?

I bought not just one but 2 bottles of Creed from Costco, and I both returned them. I have a Tom Ford Oud from Costco as well, and I still have it. I also have a collection of Paco Rabbane, and let me tell you that the 1 million EDT lasts longer than both those 2 Creeds despite of costing only 80bucks. Oh, my phantom EDP that I bought on sale for 100bucks lasts over 12h.

There's got to be something altered in that Creed recipe no doubt.

Armaf has their club de nuit intense man usually around $30.
It is a knockoff of this cologne.
Most people say it is exactly like it and also lasts longer.
I have it and love it
Has anyone on here actually got the knock off and the real deal and can confirm that Armaf smells exactly the same before I drop $200? I do have Armaf and have had quite a few compliments on it.

Yea… no one is going to do this. Kinda weird you'd even ask 😂. Either join or ask a personal buddy. You can always request a refund for the membership before the year if unsatisfied. Otherwise, you can skip the membership if you buy Costco shop cards and purchase with them.
I'm not from the US, my purchases are through freight forwarders. Most US retailers accept my country's bank cards and most are okay with freight forwarders, but some aren't, and Costco is one of them. I can't purchase a membership, let alone place an order, and I have no "buddies" in a country that's 7000 miles away from mine Smilie Aventus costs around 700$ in my country, so this deal is amazing. I understand the hate my comment got, but someone from this forum actually reached out and bought one for me after my comment and I transferred the amount back to their card. I shot my shot and it worked. Internet downvotes won't affect my day when I saved 500$ off of this (compared to my local price). The world is full of scammers and bad people but not everyone is, and I'm thankful I came across a good samaritan.
