***will update again after another several months of maceration should I remember

First impression- repulsive bug spray. After 3 weeks maceration (you have to introduce oxygen to the juice & the only way to do this is to spray some out, the more the better. I went w/ 15 sprays on this especially since it was desperately in need of maturation & it’s cheap as chips after all, a 6.8oz bottle can be bought for $40)

After 3 weeks maceration (again will not start to macerate at all until sufficiently pumped to introduce oxygen) it has turned a corner. It doesn’t absolutely replace my favorite Aventus for her clone ‘Fruity Oakmoss’ by dossier (much pricier but it is definitely quality stuff). The Al Harsmain version chose to emulate the men’s Aventus by also incorporating a pineapple accord that is not present in Creed Aventus for her or its many imitators.

So surprised by the amount of negative reviews on this perfume.. This is absolutely one of my favourites, ever since the very first wear. I have to keep myself from wearing it every day. I do tend to like more masculine perfumes, but to my nose this is a perfect unisex fragrance. I'm mostly getting a fresh, tangy pineapple and some woods. Makes me feel clean, fresh and put together. Will get a back-up for sure, as I'm already running low on my 100ml bottle, after 6-7 months of having it.

KateStefano

So grim. I blind bought this because everyone was raving about it. What a mistake. It’s supposed to be unisex but it is masculine and aftershavey. Even worse, my partner dislikes the smell as well, so he can’t even use it. It was sold to me as a bold lady with a white suit on, fresh, clean…it smells like a man who hasn’t quite figured out was scents to buy and bought the cheapest one in a nice bottle. You do get zest at the start but it’s bitter, like grapefruit rind but with more of a dirty smell to it. It gets MUCH better when it dries down but I don’t want to smell masculine. It’s absolutely lovely on clothes after about a day (I sprayed it on my partners shirts to see what it would smell like through the week). So, basically, this put me off of buying Arabian perfumes because it was my first buy. I bought Nebras since but I got a 10ml tester of this because I was afraid I’d spend £30+ and get a crap perfume again. So, if anyone wants it…you know where I am 😂

Smellgoodfeelgood84

My local pharmacy has this and today I tried it for the first time. I've never actually smelt Creed for Her and I wasn't sure what to expect.

I decided to commit and sprayed my whole forearm 4 times. It smelt different on the skin compared to the atomiser. I actually liked it. I will try it again a few times before I decide. I'm a bit worried as I am feeling somewhat uncharacteristically anxious at the moment so I think I may have developed a smell memory. Hopefully not - as I want to like this and be able to wear it. I actually think this would be a nice Autumn fragrance for where I live in Australia (South East Queensland)

Its definitely unisex. I do understand why some people don't like it. If I tried this before I became a fragrance fiend I probably would have not liked it. I'm going to give it a go.

Saki3

There's zero musk in it. It's heavy, choking, smells like dusty citrus, artificial, leaning more towards perfume for men. Big disappointment

chridela

This smells like a pineappley Aventus crossed with D&G Light Blue for women. Versatile, professional all-rounder fragrance. Highly recommend.

joydoge

I’m one of the people who unfortunately can’t stand this perfume. To me it smells like straight up mould, like you open an old forgotten lunch box with fruit in it but the fruit is long gone and has been turned nearly to dust, and you smell the faint smell of that old fruit mixed with dry mouldy spores. Just terrible.

Dani-G

This was the last blind buy of Oriental fragrances for me.
It's almost disgusting.
Weak, boring, has no power.
It has something of a grandmother's smell in it, something like mould, like an old cough syrup.
Blah!
NEVER AGAIN!

Milko43

I'm a dude but women in my kin have all tried this one. They can't stand it, saying it's too strong. I asked if it feels like sharp chemicals and they agreed (cuz it's the same case with Detour Noir).

EvaNicoleFragrance

The openings of L'Aventure Femme and Aventus for Her are noticeably different. The pineapple in LF is bright, ripe and juicy, the addition of black currant adding to a very bright and sweet introduction to this scent. The apple, lemon and violet blend in AfH lends to a much softer and drier opening. The dry downs of these fragrances differ in one aspect only, LF is stronger. This says a lot, as AfH is no slouch.

I would say that LF has a much more feminine journey to the dry down, giving a very pretty floral mid in stark contrast to the balsamic musky mid found in AfH. It took me time to fall for Aventus for Her. I fell immediately for L'Aventure Femme.

I will say that if you don't like AfH, you won't like LF, although I find LF to be prettier. This is because, even with their differences, Al Haramain manages to capture the essence of AfH in the opening and drydown. Even with the differences in notes and experience, it is clearly inspired and there is no getting around that no matter what kind of fine-tooth picking you try to do.

For the price, this is a no brainer to me, unless you hate pineapple. I will not be repurchasing Aventus for Her, and when I run out of my 100ml of L'Aventure Femme, I will be going for the 200. Excellent quality on first spray out of the box... this find is a winner in my book.

thekoltai

There is an overwhelming, sickening mixture in this that I really hate. This is also present in the Novellista Rouge Privé, probably a mixture of strong roses, musk and amber (along with something else undefined), so I recommend trying before you buy! The top notes are as described: They are the toppings on the cake, you can definitely smell them, however the fragrance as a whole does not smell like that in total if that is clear.
Absolutely hate this, sold it. Definitely not appropriate for work or any enclosed spaces. Probably lasts long (unfortunately) since it was very hard to get rid of it.

jasontallwood

Since there is a lot of great reviews already. I'll keep things short. I'm mostly here to help the gift givers this holiday season who are familiar to the Al Haramain line.

I'd say it's a 50/50 give or take of
L'Adventure (Aventus for him) - Take all the sweet and fruitiness from that
L'Adventure white (Silver Mountain Water) - Make it lighter, brighter and add a sparkle

This fragrance does improve from that first spray. I got this as a gift for someone and the first few sprays to see what it was like were OK, just to make sure it's a scent they would like. However a month or so sitting in a dresser untouched it improved significantly. Safe to say the person loved the fragrance. I can see this working on women who are bored of all the sugary sweet fragrances such as all the countless BR540 clones out there.

You've got to like musk, the pineapple they used in the regular L'Adventure for him and what smells like to me anyways white florals to pull this off. I personally hated L'Adventure white (silver mountain water clone). I used most of the 30ml bottle to freshen up my room. However anything I didn't like about l'adventure white is gone so breathe a sigh of relief! The standard L'Adventure I'm a big fan of and every now and then I smell someone with it on. I know a few people who bathe in it and have gone through or bought about 5 bottles of it combined between them so getting the for her version was a must.

Dawnya7b

This was too musky and dry for me even in the summer now it winter and I tried mixing it with vanilla |28 and… oh my goodness 🤤 it’s so good now. It’s so intoxicating the muskiness became a sexy sweet type of musk! Try it and thank me later 😉

LilyRose1

This makes me nauseous and is very screechy. I don’t know if it’s the musk or the woods in it. There’s almost this cleaning agent/bug spray vibe to it. Don’t fall for the YT/Tik Tok hype around this one, try it before buying full size.

ulianazajcenko

One blogger put this perfume in the selection for my Zodiac Sign. I liked the notes and the name, so decided to blind buy.

I am not disappointed, very gentle and exquisite scent, can be a signature.

_Aerides

I found it at half price on Amazon and blind bought it. Ended up paying 650mxn (~38dlls)

Smells like a clean, put together lady, I do find it unisex more femenine leaning but I like that type of scent. It has a woody musk base and on top of that I detect a pinneaple + rose combo, dried there is a veeery subtle vanilla. The fruity notes are shampooey, not like a realistic fruit, but I find that makes it project a more ~clean~ vibe.

Sniffing it too close it's a bit sharp but after a while it goes away, I believe this will also pass after letting the bottle sit for some weeks. The air around you will smell very very nice; it projects a gorgeous fruity-woody-musky scent bubble and even though it's strong it's not cloying at all.

This can def work in hot or cold weather, day and night, signature worthy too.


Edit: I put it in on around my mom and she DEMANDED to know what I was wearing, so I had to give it to her cous on her skin it just worked wonders 😭😂

Sally8sally

This is a good quality fragrance. crazy for it from the first moment. Unfortunately, I was allergic to it. After a few tests, I had a cough and a swollen throat and had to give it up.

LGRP

Fantastic pineapple/woody scent. It evolves beautifully and except for the flowers, you will enjoy the rest of the notes. To my appreciation, the flowers are in the potion to balance and polish the juice. The vanilla comes in a subtle way well into the dry down. I spray this perfume on my skin and fabrics abundantly for my enjoyment. ( 12 sprays +) if I am alone and do not expect to be around others for at least an hour and a half. I do enjoy this aroma and it is strong. In this fashion lasts on my skin for over 12 hours easily; on fabric, it will last even after a wash or two. If I am running out of the house I will spray 6 to 8 times and it will last for 6 to 8 hours on my skin, and on fabric until washed again.

If you've been hunting for a scent that embodies sophistication, elegance, and lasting allure, look no further—L'Aventure Femme by Al Haramain is an olfactory masterpiece. As someone who's previously used Creed Aventus For Her, I can confidently say that not only is L'Aventure Femme a perfect dupe, but in many ways, it surpasses the original.

From the moment I sprayed it on, I was enveloped in a rich bouquet of fragrances that truly captivated the essence of femininity and strength. But what stood out the most was its sillage and longevity. Unlike Creed Aventus For Her, which tends to fade away sooner than I'd like, L'Aventure Femme lingers beautifully for hours. It's a perfume that stays with you, making it perfect for long days and nights.

One might be concerned about wearing a 'dupe,' but let me assure you, with L'Aventure Femme, that concern is unfounded. This scent is so impeccably crafted that it's impossible to tell the difference between it and Creed Aventus For Her. And the best part? The difference is truly for the better. L'Aventure Femme offers a richer, more enduring scent profile that makes it a remarkable value for its price point.

So, whether you're a veteran perfume aficionado or someone looking to try something new, I highly recommend L'Aventure Femme by Al Haramain. It’s a beautiful secret you'll love to keep, and no one will ever guess you're wearing a dupe. Instead, they'll be captivated by your elegance and the lingering mystery of this extraordinary fragrance.

In short, L'Aventure Femme is not just a perfume; it's an experience that empowers and stays with you—highly recommended!

I ordered a bottle due to a recommendation from a fragrance reviewer on YouTube, Olivia Olfactory. Unfortunately, when I received the bottle, and sprayed it once on my arm, I immediately regretted the purchase. It was too rough around the edges, and not blended well. It lasted for 6 or 7 hours which is a relatively good performance but it was of no use, because I didn't like the scent. By the way, it was fairly linear and it never evolved into something more pleasant at the dry down phase.

sandradiana

It's been a year since I've had this I think.
I don't reach for it alot, only in the hot summer days as its clean.
I just reapplied it at work and my whole office is sniffing the air like crazy asking what is it.
In a good way.
They said its very strong and that you can tell is an arab perfume from the performance.
Overall they like it.
Now for me this is not a easy reach, and I love bitter perfumes. It's something about it I that I can't put my finger on.
I think I wish it had a tiny bit more sweetness, like a pinch.
It's not a hate nor a love it's a maybe.
Gets me compliments and attention so I'll keep wearing it.
I'm also knows as the one with a million perfumes at work and I'll have to say this one so far grabbed the attention the most.

eefs

I would class this as unisex as it's quite woody and not that sweet. The fruits smell more like a fruity body wash than real fruit, and it's that kind of soapy quality that puts me off.

CitrusMuskLover

I ordered a sample of Aventus For Her from Scent Split and while they are not 1 to 1, L'Aventure Femme is darn good. I feel both scents represent what it means to be glamourous. The DNA reminds me of OG fragrances from the 80s & 90s when you noticed someone whose status or confidence spoke before they uttered a word. I love it!!! x 10 :)

Cecca

I blind bought this because of the TikTok hype, and was very dissapointed. I hate it! It smells harsh alcohol, sour pineapple-scented toilet bowl cleaner/insect spray.

WoodsyLove

TL;DR it has some resemblance to Aventus for her but somewhere in the middle it turns to obnoxious synthetic screechy musk blob. This gets worse and worse with time and that's a beast frag. I've felt the same screechy musk in Mancera/Montale. It would be a good dupe if it got stuck in the opening/initial stages.

This is an interesting one, I blind bought it as female Aventus was only a like for me and I prefer the men's version.

Direct comparison when sniffing on skin: They have the same heart but a bit different, both to me tend to be unisex not "purely" female. Overall they feel differently structured - this one is all over the place probably because it's a beast (great longevity and projection, which is great for such fresh scent) compared to the OG (sat close to my skin) - the OG is a perfect symphony transitioning gently through all phases, this one is really chaotic where pineapple, flowers, sandalwood, cedar just "pop" all together. In this one there's way more pineapple and variety of fruits in the opening, the OG one hit me with lemons. Biggest difference here is the musk and the overall dry down - L'aventure has waaay more musk on my skin, a bit too much for my preferences, while I barely caught it in the OG. OG one dries like the men's version which I enjoyed tremendously and that's the part which makes me constantly sniff my bf when he wears it.

Direct comparison when sniffing in the air: L'aventure is better in the air than on my skin (musk is too much), people seem to enjoy it a lot and in the air it presents closer to the OG, the insanely good dry down of the OG is there, but vaguely - not prominent and "clean" as in the Aventus.

This might turn to a "dumb" reach as the female Aventus is not worth the price tag for what it actually is (it's only OK to my nose).

At the end of it all no matter skin or clothes LAF gets to a terrible screechy synthetic musk and I dislike it... a lot.

Tlovesscents

Just got this fragrance and it’s a love!! I do own Aventus for her and yes they are extremely similar but I would not say exact. Aventus for her imo is better blended but this fragrance is similar enough and last far longer to me so I find myself reaching for L’Aventure more to save me from going through my Aventus too quickly. I love it soo much I would definitely repurchase again!

Nocciola23

A review on the perfume itself:
Clean, fresh and fruity. The word 'zingy' comes to mind, whatever that means. Definitely unisex, even though the word Femme is in the name I could see men wearing this no drama. When the fruitiness in the top notes dries down it has a very powdery feel.

As a dupe:
In my humble opinion Creed Aventus for her is better. Better still is Creed Aventus (for men). I'm a female and I prefer female perfumes and I still think Aventus for men is better than the women's version. It's like they just added powder to make it feminine. Not all women enjoy powdery notes.

PerfumeLova85

Peace. I dont review many fragrances, so this is good. I am impressed! I cannot compare this to Creed Aventus as the only Creed I've owned was Spring Flowers, but this is damn good to me. Worth every penny! Wearing this tomorrow with a eclectic blazer, body suit, jeans and booties.

Bash2813

I blind bought this because of the fruit notes, and alot of reviews saying it was a fruity summer fragrance. And i got NOTHING of that. It smells like pines and woods. And it is sooo strong. Its not a bad smell, but I feel its much more masculine than feminine. I dont want to hate it, as the performance on this is super strong, but I am trying to find something else to pair it w or layer w that will bring out the sweetness. I kno its there like come out! Lol Im buying al haramain amber oud gold which i was recommended to pair w this one since it is in the fruity family. I guess well see.

Amour, Michele

Wow insane good. I'm super picky, usually a lover of perfumes launched before 1980s, and constantly disappointed with recent launches esp. scents that are hyped. I recently got into Arabian perfume houses and was consistently impressed, so I thought I'd take a small gamble and spent $30 on this. I'm completely impressed - it's not something revolutionary or something I sense some incredible perfume artistry. But it's just smells so damn good, and I love that it is probably one of the very rare perfumes that make me feel BOSS. It is truly a Lady Boss perfume. I immediately think of an impeccable and tasteful, empowered woman in a white suit. It smells super bougie - in the air, it smells not as good when you get too close. But, in the air, it is so so so good. Considering the meagre investment, 10/10. If I had to choose, I'd say this is feminine. There's a consistent sweetness from the wood and something herbal (minty?) and there is definitely floral touch that you notice which makes this lean feminine. But, it's honestly unisex. Most prominent trait of this perfume is that it smells classy and put together in a powerful way, and there's no gender to that.

Graduate2018

SOOOOooOOOO GOOD i had to purchase the jumbo size bottle. This thing is an all season scent, but during the summer?????? You will get compliments EVERY SINGLE DAY !
Performance is BEASTMODE

I have both this version and the original Aventus for her by Creed.
Can confirm this is a very close dupe and no need to buy both.
This is slightly sharper and more bitter.

Barbarossa

The wood is too strong, to the point that it’s unbearably bitter. And pineapple only makes it more headache inducing mess, even though I used the smallest spritz to test it. Really wanted to like it…. But this one is a big no for me…
I’ve tried it so many times, cause I truly liked the fruits here, but I can’t get over this bitterness.
By the way my boyfriend liked it a lot on me… probably good fragrance just not for everyone so definitely test it

Sua R

Definitely a big NO for me, too strong. Selling it if any is interested. Pm me

MarkoPeeko

Hubby reviewing after buying wifey this for Xmas (and after she’s had a couple of samples of AFH).

Genuinely, I can’t tell there’s much difference. OK, I’m not the one wearing it, but this is bloody close.

Yes, it starts a bit loud and sharp (in your face apple), but it dries down into a wonderfully sexy number.

She smells amazing - and she’s happy.

That’s the secret to a happy life, gents. 😉

Fudge07$

Ummmm Imma just say this and Imma be done! This is a hard NO for me! And the sad part is this could be a nice fragrance had it not had this screechy, choking, sharp, migraine inducing back smell to it! This fragrance gave me a migraine. I thought I could shot a commercial for Nurtec!!

Dawnya7b

The opening is so good so juicy so delicious so elegant and sexy! I wish the life of this fragrance was the opening. I wish the magical opening lasted longer. Over all a fantastic fragrance and yes it does smell like Aventus for her but not 100% this is softer and more fruity at the opening. The musk in AFH is overwhelming as I recall it made me nauseous. This is gorgeous and more smooth but softer.

Bettybotox

Creed Aventus for her done right. Easily unisex. Beast mode longevity and silage. Don't overspray. She will try to asphyxiate you. If you enjoy Aventus for her but aren't so keen on the price, this is a good dupe.
Ignore the 'toilet bowl cleaner', 'one time try', 'scrubber' and 'trashed it' reviews. No one can give a fair and proportionate review on any fragrance based purely on one sniff. Please only review after multiple wearing's. Single use reviews help no one here.
Also, throwing any fragrance into the trash is just revoltingly wasteful. Re-gift it to someone who will use it or donate it to a thrift store.

Ceevee963

This is the worst perfume I’ve ever tried. I used 2 sprays at a family gathering and choked everyone out, including myself. It smells like a toilet bowl cleaner. This one went right into the trash.

correspondencepersonal

Natural, woodsy, cedar - birch - juniper type spa smell.
Enchanting!

Love this!

This is feminine on my skin, fresh - but not overly "perfume-y"... this is a natural essence, more of a spa vibe.
I would not have liked this had I not have taken some time to appreciate Calvin Klein's Beauty.
It is in a similar genre to CK's Beauty. (I have not tried this side by side with Creed's Aventus for Her, but this is definitely in the same woodsy, spa-like genre).

Those that grew up with the 1980's strong women's perfumes are going to have to ease into this one, or will probably not like this.

-------------

Ok, I'm sampling these both at the same time.
Creed's Aventus for Women (upon first spray) is more neutral, it is right at the cusp of feminine and masculine, so this is a unisex type scent...with my chemistry, this still has a sweetness but it is balanced by the woods and an outdoorsy element. This is fresh, clean, sweet, natural, woodsy. This resonates with someone that would like the outdoors, it has an earthy type quality about it.

Al Haramain is not an exact dupe, but it is about 92% similar.
The 8% difference -- Al Haramain - L'Aventure femme goes on stronger and leans slightly more masculine (but is still unisex, I feel that both women and men could wear this, and wear this well - if this agrees with their individual chemistry). With my chemistry, I pick up more of a slightly sour note, which is actually quite sexy - almost like they planted a pheromone in the perfume to elicit more of a response. This is similar to the perspiration smell that I remember from being in the junior high locker room after everyone was out sweating for an hour, the smell of teenage hormones kicking in. Everyone who lived through that will remember that phase of life, lol! How can you forget? There is something in this that reminds me of L'Imperatrice 3, (the sour notes in that). This is fairly sophisticated, natural -- and yes, in the same exact category as Creed's Aventus for Women... but this is much more sexy than Creed's original...and it is still a sexiness that flies under the radar, this is not overtly sexy like a 1980's perfume/men's cologne that smells like you are going out clubbing to drag home a mate... this is like the chemistry professor's private love potion -- a very smart, sophisticated blend that brings you back to your more animal and primal nature.

About 20 minutes into the wear of Creed's Aventus for Her - WOW...there is a minty note which almost resembles peppermint/spearmint which starts singing out... this is probably the note that GOT ME. This is a very sweet, crystal clear note which bypasses all logic and reason and goes straight to the heart releasing my soul. How else can you describe this? It is other worldly, spiritually aligned, bringing heaven to earth. My olfactory senses are familiar with how peppermint aromatherapy hits me, it is an energizing vibe (but more spiritual, not so much "sexy"). I love fresh mint tea and mint in salads and desserts (but keep in mind, NOT a LOT of mint, but just a slight HINT of mint...mint can really TAKE OVER, particularly in food and perfumes. It is best when mint sings backup, but shines through on the high notes. Whomever created Creed's Aventus for Her is an artist in the way that these notes are blended.

Al Haramian is more earthy 20 minutes into wear... still very sexy, where as Creed's Aventus for Her is missing the sour aphrodisiac quality... instead, Aventus's for Her heads straight to the heart - bringing in the divine, the soul essence -- with the minty crystal clear high notes. God! This is truly better than a RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE, this is a SPIRITUAL AWAKENING.

Both fragrances are truly FABULOUS!
If I had to choose a "favorite" out of these two, I would still say that Creed's Aventus for Her is the type of vibe and expression that best reflect a crystal clear state of awareness, spiritual harmony.
However, I think they are so similar that they could be used as a combo "signature" -
But both could be worn for different purposes... one for when you are in a sexy mood -- that vibe; and the other... when you are wanting creative or spiritual inspiration.

My creative work seems to flow much better when I am surrounded by things that stimulate my creativity. I think the same is true of setting the stage for romance and sexiness... there are certain songs, movies, clothing, foods, and even perfumes/colognes which instantly bring to mind a certain vibe.

Wow, who would guess, but certain perfumes/colognes can definitely set different tones, different moods.

AdalynEverly

I thought I would like this after FunmiMonet recommended it. However, I'm starting to feel that we both have VERY different tastes in terms of perfumes. If you do not like rose forward perfumes this is NOT for you. At first when I sprayed it, I really enjoyed it, but the dry down is absolutely wretched on me. The freesia and the rose come out together to create an unbalanced, and sickly concoction that made me almost want to throw up. I just realize that fruity especially with the very powdery dry down is absolutely not for me.

juliausa

This is sophisticated summer fragrance. Pineapple is prominent, but soft and blended well with black currant, sandalwood and musk. Despite of leaning unisex in notes , this is undeniably feminine on me: beautiful and sensual - my husband appreciates it very much :) Phenomenal longevity and projection, lasts for DAYS on clothing.

It will forever have place in my collection.

klein_gluck

I love it. It is fruity, fresh, crisp, but longlasting too. Most I smell is pineapple, black currant and woods. I've tried Aventus for Her but don't remember how it smells, so can't say much if it is really similar. But this Al Haramain scent is totally worth to have.

Ferra_Verto

Lovely homage scent for Creed's Aventus for Her. Sweet fruits (pineapple & black currant are the most dominant), balanced with a slightly metallic & musky wood.
Amazing sillage (leaves a noticeable trail) and lasts for 7-8 hrs.
Perfect for spring and summer, this requires heat to truly shine and be appreciated.

CheyWolf

I was really excited to try this being that I didn’t wanna spend the hundreds of dollars on Creed but unfortunately this doesn’t work for my skin. It smells BEAUTIFUL but all my skin pulls is this cedar/metallic note :( I will let this sit for a month or two & try again hopefully it will get better. Sprayed this on my boyfriend & the pineapple & vanilla notes finally showed up. Love it on him!
Update: 9/2 randomly sprayed this on just curious how it would smell on me again & FINALLY juicy, tart fruits with a woody vanilla background. I really like it now 🤭

Eveningrose

Blind buy success ! I smell pineapple upon first spray and then it disappears within seconds. It dries down to a citrus fresh scent . I smell the cedar and sandalwood . It leans unisex to me . Love it!

dearfawn

My take in descending order of magnitude: astringent citrus, pepper, woods, musk, fruit, florals. This is a unisex scent–it brings to mind a woman who prefers wearing men’s freshie colognes. She favors menswear, turns her nose up at poofy sleeves and ruffles. Her drinks are extra dry, whiskey on the rock (one ball of ice, please). Pineapple? This lady don’t need a pineapple back! She smells like a grown a$$ Woman.

I think LAF smells more masculine than Prada L’Homme (literally ‘The Man’). I concur this is a Boss Lady scent, direct and assertive for the first couple hours, projecting a few inches off my skin even after 7 hours. Great performance to price value. There are testers on sale for US$25. Unfortunately, I am not the aforementioned Boss Lady. I crave a bit of sweetness, juicy fruitiness, romantic florals…of which LAF is lacking. I barely detected the pineapple.

LAF is for citrus lovers, and I don’t mean lemonade drinkers, I mean those people who put way too much lemon wedges in their water.

This is a nice, peppery fragrance that in my opinion, leans fairly masculine. Not that I mind that at all - I love wearing masculine fragrances at certain times, but this ended up being quite disappointing. I have no clue how other people are picking up pineapple - if I sniff reeeaaally hard, I can pick up all the other notes, but I get ZERO pineapple.
Since I bought it hoping for a fresh juicy pineapple scent for summer, I'm sad that I can't find the fruityness that other people can smell.

Edit: I take back my previous harsh review - on skin, the pineapple comes out quite prominently. It's still not as juicy as I hoped it would be, but I actually really like it!

Got this in hopes I might like it and to possibly share it with my wife as well.

Scrap that as we BOTH hate it !! This smells like a very peppery,cheap floral smell !!

On the more positive side this performs like a beast as do all Al Haramain scents !!

I have loved every scent I’ve tried from Al Haramain with the exception of this one !

I’ve also never smelled Aventus for her so I can’t judge how close of a clone this is but if it smells close to this I’ll hard pass on Aventus for her 😞

Definitely a Creed Aventus for Her dupe. Smells about 95% on point. It's Very well blended, very quality, and to my nose definitely more feminine leaning than masculine, but sure, if you're a guy and want to wear this go ahead. I don't think it's smells masculine tho. I think the reviews stating it's too masculine got the one for men honestly. There's no indication that this could be strongly assumed to male, but it's not ultra femme either. It's fruity with pineapple up front and linear, great musk and amber dry down with that sandalwood and rose hovering. It's so pretty and Perfect for warm weather. Absolute stunner and hidden gem.

This is a stunning fragrance. Definitely unisex so if you are looking for something ultra feminine, don’t buy this. I love unisex fragrances and this is a show stopper. It smells so much more expensive than it is and the lasting power and projection are massive! I could smell this on my skin 16 hours later and my skin typically eats perfumes within an hour. On fabric this lasts over 24 hours. I am absolutely in love with the fragrance. Perfect for summer, smells sharp and clean and in my opinion smells like a fragrance a boss lady CEO would wear. It’s a love!

Absolute garbage . there is no comparison to Adventis for her by Creed. it is like watered down cologne with a slight pineapple scent . very weak in performance. not sure why people say this lasts. It absolutely does not. It is not a power house fragrance. As some have referred to it . very bad performing ! don’t waste your money. Don’t believe all these crazy YouTubers that are saying it is a dupe for Adventis. Not sure what the people on this site are sniffing but it is not Creed! no comparison.

Leelee9790

I brought this fragrance due to all the great reviews. Was highly disappointed. It's to masculine and sharp. It's a sweet citrus but has very masculine undertones. I gave it to my husband.

anzuki

…I’m so disappointed, I thought this was going to be a fresh pineapple, berry scent for summer. It’s 27C/81F today so I thought it was a good day to test this in the heat. BIG MISTAKE.
Absolutely NO fruits it’s all peppery dry woods and musk. I’m not sure? Maybe I’m allergic to this scent? My skin is not irritated at all but this is the only perfume in my collection that makes me sneeze and my nose burned while catching whiffs of it, just so much fucking pepper (but pepper is not even a note in this??). I had it on for 20 minutes before I just couldn’t stand it. Had to scrub it off, a first for me.

Edit: It is very potent.I can still smell it a day later on my clothes that a little bit got on, and in the bathroom where I scrubbed it off. it now smells like really strong Axe body spray.

iamaround

Indeed similar to Aventus her without the screechy patchouli note at the beginning, maybe a bit sweeter due to pineapple instead. Basically smoother in the start. I think the drydown is very close, it feels the same when I wear it but can't compare side by side. L'aventure also lasts longer. I can see why some might find this masculine, personally I think it leans unisex in the drydown and I think I prefer this over Aventus for her.

Wiktoriaaaz

Strictly citrus woods musk and black berry, very masculine, not a fan!

likefireflies

I like this over Aventus. I've got one on each arm for comparison. Aventus hits the lime heavier whereas L'Aventure showcases the pineapple. I find L'Aventure addictive and long lasting.

SheScent88

Absolutely love this fragrance! On my skin I’m pulling a lot of cedar and pine apple.

Hunnynpink

the opening is sharp citrus with hints of fruit and wood, dry down is sweeter. I've noticed this is so strong it gives me a headache so I have to spray it far from my nose.

How do I Smell

I have Aventus for Her as well as several dupes. Initially while I was pleased with my purchase, I could spot differences in the two and I think this one has a bit more woods, a bit drier. Idk bc it didn’t last. Now, I reach for this fragrance over the original and all other dupes evert time. It lasts longer and projects better, and unless comparing side by side, you likely wouldn’t tell the difference esp bc Aventus wears off eventually (it lasts longer on clothing) and L’Aventure sticks. To read the notes you’ll find that all are there but those are also in more feminine softer frags. This is not a soft genome fragrance. It’s perfection and easily one of my favorites! It’s intoxicating.

Cherry Bloom

Quality 100%. Period! The presentation is simply luxurious. You get an increadibly great deal for the money you pay. Not a cent is wasted. If I love it so much in winter I can't imagine how much I will love it next summer. 10/10 without any doubt. Al Haramain knows how to make perfumes.

One note after reading other comments: though it leans feminine it is perfectly unisex. So, if you are in search of very feminine, discreet frags stay away from this one. It's too unisex to be accepted by soft floral lovers.
But if you can like heavy, punchy crispy frutty muskiness in perfumes..well, my ladies, you've reached the Holy Grail.

SummerRose

Absolutely Beautiful Fragrance!! It opens with pineapple and bergamot. It's elegant, sophisticated, clean, fresh, a bit sweet and also a bit sexy. It is so well blended. I am truly stunned by just how beautiful it is. I think this could d be worn in any season, day or night.
After gifting my husband a dupe for Creed Aventus and loving it (Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Men EDP), I went searching for a dupe for Creed Aventus Her and came across this online. I bought it and have absolutely no regrets. Utterly Fantastic!

sisina96rv

This is fantastic!
Period.
While I do not know Creed Aventus for Her, I cannot tell the similarity. But I have got Creed for Him (as a woman 😀), and yes, there is something similar indeed. The same green, fizzy, crispy freshness, which avoids to lean towards fougere, thanks God. It is absolute cleannes, brightness, a joyful spring full of flower buds. I have Amber Oud Gold on my other hand - both have a pineapple note, but while in AOG it is dominant, here it is perfectly balanced. I also get the bergamot and blackcurrant, and surprisinly I can pick up the sandalwood as well. The overall smell is sour-sweet, definitely fresh and clean. Probably the musk is doing its wonders, but it is so well blended - I rarely get the chance to smell very well blended perfumes.
For me this perfume is something I would gladly wear. The smell gives me confidence. Like a put together lady. I do not get any masculine feeling from it. On the contrary. It is "Femme" and I see it as a feminine fragrance.
Just beautiful. 👏

audreysoccer

Beautiful opening, dry down has a green bitter smell.. can't place it. just musty moldy paper/clothes. Not a fan.

andrianna.fragrance

LOVE LOVE LOVEEE.
Beautiful, elegant, classy, alluring and sensual fragrance.

A hint of luxury soap in this, mixed in with some fresh breezy florals, yet she's got some sexiness edge to her.
Its clean, sophisticated yet with a hint of sweetness making you want to smell this more and more.
Beast mode performance too, washed my hands and i could still slightly smell it.
Going to wear this for the summer

Blind buy success!

Hiroac

This is weird ! Smells green and annoying! Pretty sure is for a dude!do not blind buy👈🏽

Scentedlemon7

I don’t know if I got a bad batch, but I don’t smell none of the fruity notes at all. It smells very woodsy and musky. It comes off very masculine. It’s kinda giving me Light blue for men. Very disappointed!

kiraj717

I'm so confused by these reviews. This fragrance is so masculine and heavy. I dont smell any sweetness or fruits of any kind. Just pepper and bergamot. This was a lesson to me about blind buying based on the notes listed. Yes the packaging is very nice and the sillage is very good. This was a scrubber for me it last on my skin for hours.

[email protected]

This is a dark heavy scent but the florals give it some levity.

My first impression of this fragrance was that is smelled like a black tea blend called "Constant Comment"

I think it smells beautiful, especially if your into tea like I am.
Does it smell exactly like "Constant Comment" no, but it reminds me of it.

Imagine your drinking black tea with orange rind next to Magnolia trees at midnight. (Magnolia flowers really pump out their scent in the middle of the night)

At first I was focused on the florals and thought I could not pull this off, but after a while I also noticed there is also heavy woods, and a bit of cigar smoke in this, so maybe I can pull this off.

Even though this is dark scent it still smells ok in the heat, not the high heat direct sunlight kind of heat but it holds its own in summer.

I think this would smell beautiful on a woman. But I am convincing myself I could wear this as well.

I imagine this smelling best on me wearing black, because it smells dark and mysterious.

I recently got a sample of Creed Aventus for Her and despite the mixed reviews, absolutely love it. I bought an oil inspired by it from the Oil Perfumery and it’s great too. I got shockingly close to buying the full bottle of Aventus for Her. Then I saw the comparisons to this and thought for the money it was worth a go. Wow, I’m glad I did. I’m not an expert but have about 65 bottles of perfume and feel pretty well versed. Let’s just say I’m thrilled I didn’t part with hundreds of dollars for the Creed. It may be closer to 95 than 100% the same, but this Haramain dupe is so good and I saved moolah to try another!

PerfumedParrot

Judging this in it’s own right (not directly comparing it to its dupe), this is gently fruity with an atmospheric, ozonic wearability. But there’s a chemical bitterness throughout which doesn’t appeal. This ‘electric discharge’ accord seems to electrocute the pineapple into a bitter flatness. A synthetic replica without soul.

Mea.G.Newcastle

Wanted to try an Al Haramain scent and decided to blind buy this one.
Love at first sniff 🥰
I could smell it even at unboxing trough the stunning packaging and bottle. Although it has a more unisex or even masculine vibe, it’s a good one.
It opens with a berry pineapple fruity splash, and slowly dries down to a slightly spicy oriental scent but still remaining light and more fresh than sweet and it’s super long lasting.

Chloé Jay

The bottle is totally badass!!! The fragrance not so much, I have a 10ml of Creed Aventus for her. It has a somewhat similarity but not much. This fragrance is more synthetic and masculine. Creed is very smooth and beautiful. This was definitely a scrubber it’s super loud and very harsh like a cleaning solution. It takes a super long time to dry down. Let’s just say this, sometimes it’s cool to save hundreds of dollars and you may have a winner, but sometimes it’s just best to invest and make that huge purchase and wear the best.

hien_nguyenthu

It reminds me much of Creed's Aventus for her. Will update the review after actually use it.
Update: After using it for like a dozen times I still think it's 90-95% similar to Creed Aventus for her. The only difference is that Creed Aventus for her has patchouli note while this one doesn't.
Just my thought. Like it though.

Zoë101

I rating this scent based on what it is and not what it compares to which is an expensive floral 🌼💸. Yes the notes are slightly “scratchy” but that dies down. I have smelled more expensive florals, but this still smells like money 💰 to me. You get that initial blast of fruity citruses that pull slightly sour from the bergamot but that pineapple adds a nice touch of sweetness to balance it. As it dries you’re left with a heavy dose but fresh combination of cedar florals and musk. I get a tinge of that amber and vanilla far in the background but this is NOT a sweet fragrance by any stretch of the means. An expensive smelling freshie floral if that’s even ever been done 💚. Beautiful gold bottle with decent weight. Phenomenal longevity and projection. A love for sure 💚

RATING: 8.2/10.

Cherry_Darling

I wasn't expecting too much here but I was pleasantly surprised. It has that erba pura musky fruity almost oudy vibe, without the nasty chemical feel. It does have a chemical aspect but it's more the animalic musky feel where erba pura is just like sniffing into a detergent. Not bad, Al Haramain usually doesn't dissapoint. Tart, citrussy, not too heavy on the pineapple. Initial spray has something masculine, a soft leather or birch then mellows out into a citrus fruity. I think this is wearable for the summer

Akos89

It's funny how differently we preceive the same scent...

As a MAN, I ordered a few samples from this, because many here said that this is an unisex, or even maybe a bit masculine parfum.

For my nose, it's absolutly feminine. And for me, it has a "synthetic", harsh, sweet floral kind of note. So I wouldn't want to smell it even on a woman.

BUT ! ! !

I gaved the samples to my mother and sister, and they both said that it's absolutly a man's scent!

So, basicly... fragrance reviews are pointless.

Iris_123

this is not my cup of tea. If you like to smell like a man then consider this fragrance, however it does smell harsh and had to give it to my son because none of the sweet notes came out to play in this fragrance. The vanilla and amber were non existent. I strongly dislike it without disrespect to anyone who enjoys this.

No me gusto para nada esta fragancia. Es imperativo probar cualquier fragrancia en tu cuerpo antes de comprar ya que la quimica de cada cuerpo es diferente y lo que en mi huele delicioso para otra persona no lo es. Esta fragancia se me hace a mi parecer un poco varonil y todavia asi,no es de mi agrado ni para un hombre. Digo esto con mucho respeto para aquellos que la encuentran agradable. En mi ninguna de las notas dulces salieron a relucir. no le percibi ni la vainilla y mucho menos el ambar. No la recomiendo.

Update:
I am still trying to consider this fragrance since I already spent the money. last night i was thinking what other fragrance to use to layer it with and the only super sweet one i have at the moment is Pink Sugar. OMG. maybe I'm going crazy but its actually delicious on my skin. I will use it in the fall/winter

dado que ya inverti el dinero en esta fragancia, ayer me puse a pensar con cual otra la podia mezclar para hacerla mas placentera. la unica fragancia que tengo en el momento que es dulzona es Pink Sugar. WOW. en mi piel se convirtio en una delicia. la usare en Otono/Invierno

tried it today as is and I LOVE IT!!! my body chemistry is all over the place.

PerfumePrincess82

A complete powerhouse of a fragrance. If you like hiding into the background this is not for you. Oozes class wherever you go. People will be asking ‘what’s that scent?’, ‘who smells so good?’....my signature scent. Perfect for a night out, you will not be missed. Quite fruity so best for summer nights in my opinion. Lasts extremely well!! Even after washing you will still smell of this!! Amazing quality for the price, I’m surprised Creed haven’t took them to Court for plagiarism to be fair. Oh well, lucky us.

edp4life

I am OBSESSED with this fragrance! I swear, I get compliments everywhere I go. I’ve never received that many compliments on a scent. The longevity is great and it projects really well!

PerfumePrincess82

I’ve smelled creed aventus and this side by side and my nose tells me there is no difference!! Amazing sillage/strength and you’ll be complimented wherever you go. Amazing value for money this one.

Rebecca Kitt

Hard to believe there is no Civet in this fragrance. The skank must come from combining pineapple and currants with what otherwise would be nice notes. It smells too much like a tom cat sprayed repeatedly to mark his territory. I cannot imagine this being nice on anyone. I gave mine away to someone who loves it. I cannot fathom that. It was a scrubber on me. 🤮

Rebecca Kitt

This is not my cup of tea. Smells harsh, sharp and edgy on my skin. None of the fruits were pretty on my skin and combined to a chaotic blend that smelled like cat urine and took my breath away. Civet by Zoologist turns in the same way on my skin. I’m keeping it to try again as so many reviews were favorable. Maybe I’m missing something. I’ll give it another chance to change my mind.

ZoopyGoggins

Absolutely monstrous performance on my wife with this one!
She put this on to go to work and I was still in bed. It engulfed me in a cloud of fruity sillage as she kissed me goodbye and when I got up, it had filled up the house.
The same day, later in the evening, I had applied Mancera Black to Black which is one of the strongest fragrances I own. I could still smell her lightly reapplied L'Aventure over my B2B. Unheard of!!!
Seriously, seriously beast-mode.
101% better than Aventus Women when you take into consideration the price point.
She loves this. I bought this for her. I AM MAN!

Sanch

I absolutely love this perfume – It might be named 'femme' but it is definitely unisex.

It’s fresh and so versatile. It is the ultimate summer or winter perfume IMO. I would say the smell is quite close to Aventus for her 80% and the performance is about the same 6 hours (days on clothes).

Good value for money. My new daily ;)

Fragrance 9/10
Performance: 9/10
Versatility: 10/10

LaLuNaveed

I am not sure what is going on with my relationship with this fragrance, but all I can smell is sandalwood, cedar and some musk. Non of the flowers, fruit, none of the feminine notes came out to play... Very manly scent on me. I gave it to my boyfriend, told him it was unisex... :) Now he rocks this baby. The staying power is great and the cloud of this fragrance stays long after he leaves the room...

Sebaht

This is the best-smelling fragrance but the lasting power is not as great.

WalewskaNoir

This intriguing beauty is on my wish list.
I cannot resist smelling it. I would not gues at once the notes beside musk and citrusy and perhaps some woods and pineaple. I have 5ml sample and will save it for great events.
To me it could be named cocaine. Recently I love swirling scents, animalic with fruity hints. L,aventure has it all, to me like Bronley Crimson Flower.
L, Aventure is sophisticated, intriguing, luxurious and modern. Fruits are not loud but play a role behind. To me it is slightly fresh, yet warm. But mostly swirling in the nose animalic humid aura and some light green vibe. This could be a great unisex. I can imegine some wild man could wear it. Its not fruit or sugar bomb.
Office safe? Yes for confident people, not really for little mouses who want to hide.
For sure must try.
To me its a must have.

msajoy

its a hidden gem, im glad im one of the few who got it recently and what a beauty, amazing pricing, i havent tried Aventus for her just yet but this one from Haramain is absolute fruity heaven....pineapple, blackcurrant, berries, pear, bergamot...you name it...it got it... its even more pleasant than L'Aventure AKA Aventus dna...there is florals on drydown but fruitiness and muskiness stays with amber and woody notes...its surely unisex...im giving this 10/10...wow...try it people...solid 55 dollars value

alemaiden

Hoy me lo rocié en mi mano y lo que sentí fue un estilo al O de Lancome mezclado con el D&G Ligth Blue... al rociarlo es fresco, alimonado, lo unico diferente son las notas de Base bien amaderadas, almizcladas con un poco de vainilla que lo hace mas dulce. Su sillage es bastante amplio, lo siento cuando escribo en mi computadora con un simple disparo que rocié en mi mano, y la duración por cierto, increíble!. Espero les sirva.
