Welcome to my world! I am the only person at work banned from wearing cologne!!! I get by spraying them on at night..quality juice lasts on me 16+ hours. Did I tell you I loved my bottle from the split?! Man, that was a great bottle/sprayer, THANK YOU! BTW I put on three sprays of Aventus last night at 10pm. It is 3:51 and I just hugged a coworker leaving for the day and she stayed hugging me, sighing and saying "oh man, mmmmm, you smell soooo goooooood" Aventus never fails! :-)
and i just realized..if ur using a Creed bottle atomizer, then yea..3 sprays is way too much. I would do 1 spray and call it a day. Those things spray like fire hoses. I have a split bottle from Will and 3 sprays carries all over the place. People can smell me even before I get there lol
I think you were asked to go home because the women weren't able to focus on their work because they were secretly having multiple orgasms due to the magical powers of the Almighty Aventus!
mayBe they caught a wiff and they thought it smells so good lets ask him what it is ,take note of that, Buy a Bottle and tell him to never wear that again so i can Be the only one wearing aventus at work
sending you Back home just for three sprays of a cologne?
thats Bullshit, i dont think thats the real reason for they sending you Back homme
im sure that if they didnt never knew you are a fragrance-head and you never asked everyBody their opinion aBout fragrances, they wouldn't even notice that you are wearing a fragrance
1. they got SUBCONCIUSLY got influenced for the fact that you are into fragrance, and they THINK you are wearing a very strong fragrance when you dont
I recently funked out an entire room at work with a few small sprays of Aventus from a 5ml decant. Could still smell it seven hours later. The critical point here is that the room was HOT and was it making me HOT and that might have created the mutant musky pineapple funk. I don't think I was sweating, but who knows? Sure smelled like I was. This is potent stuff... less is more!
I do three spray's of Aventus and I get so many complements and looks when travelling to Uni/and back. I spray one on center of the neck, and one on each arm creases (the below bit). This fragrance is unique as hell. Great video Dan!
I am sure you are making light of the subject, but I would be very careful. The management at work might be acting cool about it, but make no mistake that this is a shot across the bow. I would tone down the cologne wearing at work waaaay down. Play it cool and keep you job, this hobby isn't as important as your kids I see in the videos sometimes. I appreciate what you do and am probably not telling you anything your wife hasn't alreday said. :) Peace
Great story Dan, I've had girls at work comment on how I smell good but I always use light fragrances that are fresh. I don't see how this could be offensive to anyone. Maybe you should drown yourself in A men next time to prove a point.
I'm sorry that happened to you, bud. Aventus can DEFINITELY be a "silent killer" lol. A lot of people say that it doesn't last very long, but I swear that it does & it really has nothing to do with the batch. I have both (the very fruity top & the "smokier" one) and they are both quite beastly. Hey Dan, were people complaining about how it smelled too, or just the amount?
dan all it takes it one person to complain about anything, i used to be in upper management at a home improvement store and you would not believe what all people do complain about. they should have enough work to do on there own besides worrying about what some one smells like. i mean you have the paint dept, lumber, cleaning chemical aisle, etc, i wore burberry london one day for a manager's meeting and was told to never wear it again cause it bothered one person.
OMG So funny! And good advice to us splitters!! I've had the same anosmic problem with my Aventus sample by the way. I'm hoping the problem will go away once I really start wearing it this spring and my nose finally 'figures it out.'
Hilarious! Are there any notes in Aventus that you may be anosmic to? Have you noticed this b4 with other fragrances or particular fragrance houses? Also, where did you place your 3 (Creed-tastic Godzilla spray)s at?
Lol, great story Dan! Yeah I only have 5ml of Aventus, but I found that when I do 3 sprays just from the decant sprayer people can easily pick up on it like 4 feet away which I was really surprised at. It is pretty funny that out of everything you've worn, it's Aventus that gets you sent home.
The sent you home because of Aventus?? What the HELL!!!!
Aventus is delicious....and 3 sprays is NOTHING.....I can understand people being sicken or disgusted by Musc Ravageur, Amen, or most OUD's but AVENTUS??? NO way...
i wore one spray of aventus at work (work at hospital, so suppose to not wear fragrances) and i had many comments that i smelt like i was a cigar. It's off my sneaky fragrance at work list (wear prada infusion often)
LMFAO! Wow good 1 Dan. i just turn down Aventus, because i thought it wasnt strong enough. Now i'm mad i didnt get it. Next thing you know, ppl will be getting sent home for millesime imperial. lol
i think you're brave for sharing your story Dan! I have had some rough experiences with Fleur de Male and Noir de Noir. Of course you dealt with it in good humour, i still am a bit paranoid sometimes at work. Anyway i think you're the best for sharing your story. Sometimes these experiences are encessary to help regulate our application. Not all that much fun though :)
Wow, that's crazy. Aventus is one of the safest, most pleasant scents around. And it doesn't really have a reputation for being particularly strong. I am surprised to hear about this.
You got called out! Oh shit, when i first bought Le Male before I got into fragrances I sprayed like 7 or 8 sprays, on a hot and humid night like an idiot. I had no idea I was gona be killing people for the night.......bad move, I got called out. Now I go only 1 spray and use it in the winter only. Now I always watch a good review in before wearing so I know what to expect.
LMFAO. I just spit out my coffee! It really seems that some of the Creeds last around lot longer than your own nose picks up on. I've noticed that many complain that they can't smell them shortly after spraying, but everyone else still can.
Got sent home for wearing a creed fragrance?? Man thats crazy they should enjoy sniffing you. Imagine if you wore a strong oud fragrance like montale for example, they will close the store for sure :)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you work in a home improvement store? What the hell are they complaining about when the whole place smells like chemically treated lumber. Sounds like a bunch of bah humbug to me.
Like you said Creed's are tricky. My wife hates VIW and I can put one spray on and she smells it halfway across the house and starts up with "God, not that one! Anything but that one!" Not to mention 1 spray from a Creed is like 4 from a normal bottle.
Yeah, Aventus can be a strong one, but I was suprised, like you, that this would be the one to send you home. Have you worn any of the Civit frags to work? I wonder if it was multiple complaints, or you just happened to upset one of the bigwigs? It'd be interesting if your employer made you chose between your job and your fragrances. Wonder why you couldn't at least wash off in the bathroom first, or did you already?
ROFL. I cracked up when I heard they actually sent you home. wowsers.. maybe they are just sick of smelling vetiver so much that they were gonna kick u home anyway today lol.
Too funny. I wonder if the outside temperature and humidity were in some perfect alignment to turn Aventus into some kind of beastly monster. I guess you'll just have to stick with Oud 27 from now on. lol.
Makes you wonder if our noses have become so used to fragrances, even us don't review, that we are simply immune to how strong some of them are. I have made it a rule, even with most designer scents like Burberry London, to only do 3 sprays. But maybe even that is too much. Getting nervous here... don't wanna end up as mister too much collogne wearer LOL.
hahaha, love this..shame that the nose blocks out a lot of scent and others get the full experience !
