    A Reddit comment, May 2023, 3 points

  • Regular is great, it’s a more pineapple leaning fragrance, similar to CDNIM with the Aventus DNA but a lot more pineapple rather than smoky, I prefer to layer it with my CDNIM I spray 2 sprays of one and 3 of the other and it layers perfectly, probably my favorite combination.

  • CDNIM aventus clone i love it my favorite, but also not safe blind buy because of the opening is sharp lemony scent and the dry down is pineapple smokiness but for me top top .

  • Ngl as someone who doesnt even like most clones I've smelled, older cdnim batches are absolutely better than aventus in its recent states.

    A Reddit comment, Nov 2024, 1 point

  • Even CDNIM, which I think is the best Aventus alternative, starts with a citrus-heavy opening, not what you’re claiming here.

    A Reddit comment, Dec 2024, 1 point

  • This, at first I was disappointed that my CDNIM was not a 1:1 to Aventus but it lasts so much longer, is much more intense and I prefer the stronger citrus note it has.

  • Beginner here..I recently started collecting..is this a good purchase for the collection..it's a creed aventus clone..so should i go for CDNIM or SNOI..which one's better please enlighten me..

  • Nah they're different enough side by side, and I do own both SNOI and CDNIM, plus another Aventus clone that does it better than CDNIM.

  • The dry down is definitely a 1:1 clone of Creed Aventus (I bought a bottle and compared them) with Aventus having a fresher opening that DEFINITELY ISN'T WORTH the extra $350.

  • same happened to be it CDNIM thought it smelled like Aventus Creed so bought it, smelled like lemon floor cleaner at first few days but then the smell really grew on me turns out I gotta weight for 45mins to an hour to get the perfume to really hit the mid notes, had a girl from college who I don't

    A Reddit comment, Feb 2025, 1 point

  • I'd suggest you do the same, find an Aventus clone you like most and use it while CDNIM continues to sit, and maybe it will get better.

    A Reddit comment, Oct 2025, 1 point

  • CDNIM is meant to be the "best" clone of Aventus, but it smells nothing like Absolu of SCE, so to say this is a clone of Aventus, it's really not.

    A Reddit comment, Oct 2025, 1 point

  • Now, my well-aged CDNI is a better version of Aventus.

    A Reddit comment, Nov 2025, 1 point

  • I would say if you hate the DNA of the CDNIM LE then you probably wouldn't like Aventus because the scent profile is nearly 1:1 with Aventus being a bit fresher and LE having more of the smoky woodiness but both are basically still the same scent with slightly different emphasis in the dry down

  • I’m no different, I read the reviews of CDNIM and I opted to buy the Limited Edition based on it supposedly being identical to Aventus…the problem was I never smelled Aventus and when I received my bottle I was totally disappointed (tbf I bought a decant of Aventus and it is shockingly close).

    A Reddit comment, Mar 2026, 1 point

  • They are extremely close to Aventus without that horrible opening of CDNIM.

  • I think your collection is pretty well round tbh but perhaps you can add a really bold and manly scent if you like those, something like Bvlgari Man in Black or even an aventus dupe like CDNIM (I’ve only ever smelled the extrait the parfum version and love it)

    A Reddit comment, May 2026, 1 point

  • Cdnim is better than aventus because it smells close to it, projects amazing lasts all day for a fraction of the price, and gets more compliments than aventus.

  • It resembles Aventus, sure but it’s not “indistinguishable” or 1:1 by any stretch of the imagination.

  • Idk why ppl say that cdnim smells like aventus

    A Reddit comment, Jul 2025, 0 points, disagrees

  • In my opinion, I have cdnim so I’ll start by saying on the dry down it resembles somewhat still harshly aventus but only at 60% of the way there…

  • Everyone who recommends CDNIM for an Aventus clone is either a shill or or loves chemical lemon and smoke.

    A Reddit post, Aug 2024, 0 points

  • I.e cdnim not cdn both are different scents former is a clone of aventus and latter is a clone of one million, first get the knowledge and creed is the DNA that has the most clones, I'm sure you don't even know good 5 clones of sauvage elixir and calling it out for no reason lmao.
