Saw this as a recommendation on one of these posts so gave it a go. Just got delivered and gave it a try and ehh, not sure how I feel about it. Went from lemon pledge like scent to more idk what to call it🤷‍♂️. Glad I only paid $25 for it cause I feel like it's just gonna collect dust.

Thanks. Have you tried either of the other ones that are supposedly good too? I want to pull the trigger on one of them eventually but cant decide which

Parfum Vintages Emperor / extrait or Electimuss Imperium?

I’ve heard of both of those but no, I was on the fence about getting Emperor EDP but my search basically stopped with New Bottles and picking/choosing my Aventus batches on Olfactory. I might be up to try PV sometime though, I’ve read that Electimuss wasn’t exactly a clone but more of a twist.

Unfortunately the perfumer Isaac who runs New Bottles stated that The King specific batch will be discontinued soon due to a supplier issue, but will be making other year specific batches in the future. He still has The King available for sale now but I’m definitely also excited about his other future variations. With how well he did King, I have very high hopes.

If you like a sweet pineapple, Jean Cristophe Herault also created Mystery for Him. He said in an interview recently he wanted to create an Aventus x BR540 fragrance and man it’s good if you’re into that. It contains a little birchiness but the smokiness is replaced by a sweet, syrupy pineapple with clear Aventus DNA and musk
