Dumont Borouj Spiritus (Creed Aventus) - My favorite take on the Aventus DNA.

Spiritus Borouj opens with a slightly sharp lemon and citrus blended with woods and white florals smelling similar to Aventus with the lack of pineapple, but with a soapy lemony vibe.

If you like Aventus DNA try Dumont Borouj Spiritus for a higher quality, fairly accurate clone, or Montblanc Explorer if you want a more refined, super versatile, inoffensive take on the DNA.

Borouj Spiritus (Aventus clone) had a really strong synthetic note in it that I really didn't like so I had to return it unfortunately.

Spiritus is a nice Aventus clone, but up against real Aventus it’s ok.
