Sotd + first impressions

Went with my dumb reach specialist today. Y EDP. No introduction needed.

Today i also got to try the famous aventus absolu. Tbh i really liked the opening of it. Especially the pineapple. Its almost like someone squeezed in the pineapple straight in my nose. The fragrance overall was very aventus like but if Aesop created it. Herbal, green and fresh spicy nuances elevated it for me. One of the better aventus DNA. But not at all impressive for the price i feel. There will be a clone of this very soon and it would end up loosing its shine. Collectors edition shows up as a clone but imo its not the same. CE is closer to OG aventus. Still on my skin after 10 hrs but significantly weakened by hr 4 for me. This is when my skin is not the best so commendable performance.

Another one i tried is the New prada LR black. I believe they reformulated it last year. Luckily nothing much has changed. Things were just dialled up and down. Ambergris was noticeably weaker and the vanilla was more prominent in the dry down. Feels more like a batch difference than reformulation. Could barely smell on skin after 10 hrs.
