Brasilia Cologne

Most Creed Aventus Cologne Clones do not hit the pepper note quite right. In this case, they hit it perfectly- but the top notes are just a little lacking. I spray Reyanne Insurrection II Sport (which hits the top notes perfectly, but lacks the pepper notes) on top of this to make a perfect 1:1 clone. Reyanne is $20 so spray as much as you want. Even combined- the price is less than half of what discounters charge for the OG. Also- don't try to decant the combo to make it easier- one is an Extrait and one is an EDT, so it doesn't quite work as well as layering.

Note- let this one sit for a few weeks after spraying a few times. I thought it was horrible and sour at first spray. Now, a month later, I'm actually impressed enough to invest in the bigger bottles. They even got the weird peppery base notes right. I would not call it an exact 1:1 clone, there is actually more here than in the original. It is a beautiful interpretation- the best part being that it lasts a whole lot longer (I'm going on 4 hours- and it's still going strong (I also mowed the lawn and sweat a lot- and its 90°). Overall- you will be happy. But if you're looking for an exact note for note match, this one is close, but not quite there. I have yet to find one that is closer though.
