- I DID IT | I BOUGHT CLUB DE NUIT INTENSE MAN EDT TO REVIEW THE MOST FAMOUS CREED AVENTUS CLONE. After years of avoiding this infamous and controversial clone of Creed Aventus, I finally decided to purchase CDNIM from Armaf and see whether the fanboys were right or the haters! Stay tuned for my full and honest review and opinion.

There shouldn't be any controversy about this fragrance. It's simply the most bang-for-the-buck Aventus clone in the market.
The different batches and performance seems to be the problem
@@evolove5711 Even with the variations, there's no Aventus clone that smells just like it from the opening to the drydown. If you want the real thing, get the original. But CDNIM is an incredible value for the price and its drydown is very close.
Agreed
I have to dissagree i bought it having heard so many good reviews but i dont really like it if creed aventus smells like it i wouldnt waste my money on creed aventus
@@petersmith1886 You can disagree all you want but your logic for doing it is obviously flawed. How can you refute that CDNIM resembles Aventus when you haven't even smelled it? Besides, I didn't even say that CDNIM and Aventus should be loved by everyone.
Greatly appreciate the breakdown of the trademarking of perfumes. All my time watching content creators, no one has ever spoken about that. Thank you. I have bought CDN IM in EDT and I can't say that I like it too much. Joel you're a treasure to us consumers and I thank you for it!
I didn’t want cdnim for your same reasons, but I now have a bottle on the way based off your review. Your honesty and genuineness is hard to find now and days. Touché to you.
Thanks Joey. I appreciate that!
If Creed sold Aventus for $200 less, they'd sell 1000% more 🤷♂️
note sure about it. same for chanel bags
All things equal, price does not shift demand
@@alis.2895 There are 100s of leather bag brands which have equal or better quality than gucci, chanel etc. There is something called brand value add up and hence those brands have much larger marketing budgets
@@alis.2895 yeah ok lol. I think most people would drive a Porsche if it was the same price as a Ford.
@@Chris-hy6jy if Porsche and Mercedes’ and bmw were all equally cheap, it still wouldn’t make a difference in demand- hence why I started with all things equal.
Nice job! I never found the opening harsh whatsoever...it's a great scent. Your take is 100% spot on!
Thx!
I picked up 4-7 bottles of this because its my favorite mens fragrance hands down and is my go to fragrance and will be for many years to come. Glad you tried it.
👍👍
The review itself is at 10:45.
Thanks for this, I needed a more current breakdown after all the batch debate, most reviews are from like a year ago.
Did you end up getting it planning getting it from Amazon but hear bad things about batches
Yea everyone has the silver atomizer one which was a beast
@@anthonytumadre61 I have the black one :/
Thanks dude
thanks bro
IMHO this is the most definitive video on CDNIM, after this I don’t think I want to see another video on the subject. Great work 👍
Wowwww! Thx!
@@joelthenose just blind bought based on your video. Really enjoy your videos.
@@markt2006 let me know what you think!
I just ordered a bottle so I can end the speculation. I'm not buying it because it's a good clone of creed, I'm buying it because it seems to be an awesome scent to get this type of hype.
His objectivity as a lawyer makes this without doubt the best video on CDNIM. No question. The best.
When I first started watching CZcams videos for recommendations, every channel was talking about how great this was. I don't know what Creed Aventus smells like. I just wanted a good affordable fragrance, so I ordered this. It seemed like from the time I clicked order till right before it arrived, CZcams switched and all the sudden everybody hated it. So then I was nervous when it finally arrived. Thought I might have wasted $28. Luckily it smells great and lasts all day long.
I don't know what made people flip on this, but I think it's a great fragrance. Especially at that low of a price.
Another great video. Agree with you Joel. Switched from my signature Aventus to CDN for a month. No-one noticed the difference. Same amount of compliments. 👍
They really are just facts. Thanks for the input
Joe I love how you go into detail! Keep it up
Man your review is so honest...finally someone honest about this clone....even today as I speak I was at a fregance store..and want of my body was trying to buy aventus...and I smell it again..and I was like..no no.. I got that already (club de nuit...) like it's the same fregance..maybe t
It won't last that long.. it still a good 8hours of it..
Well... I started out with some hesitations (another "snob" reviewing this) but I was amazed. Not just by the honest review but also by your down-to-earth and frank attitude. Furthermore, the legal side info and the way you explained how these are copied and how we perceive smells and so on... So much good stuff packed in under 20 minutes. Loved it so you have a new sub 👍🏼
Right on dude. I share your sentiments exactly. Great review.
Thanks Chris!
1000% agreed with what you said. Excellent informative video and finally a different approach on this fragrance! Cheers from Peru!
Yea you sold me on this lol. I’m adding it to my cart now ,thank you for the review you did a excellent job.
I already have a bottle of CDNIM however your review was so good I want to buy another bottle now out of FOMO great job man
Thx!
This is a compliment MONSTER. What’s crazy, is I’ll get more compliments like 8 hours into the fragrance. Not as much in the first few hours. And it just vibes with you. Even though it is a clone.... but it has its own swagger to it. This is the more loud little brother who’s the entertainer, with more swag and charisma. Y’all might think I’m crazy... but that’s my humble opinion
How many sprays you wear?
You know what crazy Is I get more compliments with 3 sprays than like 5-6. 2 behind the ear and one on the wrist, and it’ll get the job man I’m telling you.
@@eddysyoutubechannel9234 EDT or EDP?
EDT
Which version you have made in Dubai or France?
Good video, my friend. I was literally 5 min away from ordering a new batch Aventus, just for the hype. Your video saved me some €€, thank you !
The honesty mad me sub.
Because of how honest you were in this review you’ve gotten a sub out of me. And thanks for the knowledge on the legalities that in itself was absolutely AWESOME because lord knows I wondered how it was possible.
Love your take on this sir. I couldn’t agree more. God bless.
👍👍
nice video!!! and i agree with you,
this is what happened to me, i heard aventus was the king of mans fragrances but the price was out of my budget. i never got to smell it, i bought some clones (armaf, zara, al haramain, afnan) they all smellt realy nice and CDNIM is the one that got me the most compliments and beleive it or not it even got me laid twice with two strangers ( these ladies complimented me on it and i played my cards right) well after a while i saved up for a 10ml decant of "real aventus" and i was really dissapointed when i got it my expectations were really high, i was expecting something that could blow my mind....but to my nose aventus smelled just like some of the clones i had....i just felt the smell was "brighter and sharper" but it was almost the same as zara's vibrant leather and cdnim. So i don't know why i should buy something that costs a few hundred when theres something just like it at a fraction of that price.
Thanks for the honest review!
I'm now gonna buy this because of you. Thank you!
It’s was cool learning the legalities of scents and trademarks
🙌
That was cool!
Thanx, I've got alot of expensive colognes which I love to wear, but it's nice to have a few colognes that not crazy expensive n great quality, great video! Thanx again
Love this video... much more informative than a typical review... love the duality in arguments presented... cheers !!!
Thx Eric! I'm so glad you appreciate the deeper dive
after downing 6 aventus bottles, I finally bought CDNIM, man this is honestly 🔥🔥 can’t believe I waited so long to try this. Definitely on par with aventus, if anyone is hesitant, just go for it, there’s nothing to lose. It’ll be the best 30 bucks you ever spent.
What batch is that? I mean year.
@@darkking189 I just got a bottle in the mail today. 2019 batch(black sprayer) - this stuff smells amazing. I see how its not for everyone, but trust me when I say its the best clone I've smelled.
My bottle production date Feb 2022 edt is a beast last 9 hours and I just bought Limited Edition but for me the edt last longer than my edp and project like a beast.
Sorry you don't have money to buy even 1 aventus. Why you come on youtube to lie dear???
I love mine, I've got both and Creed doesn't nearly last as long as Club does. Was a great buy.
Great review. I have a decant of Aventus and love it. Gonna try this clone. Subscribed!
Thx and welcome!
The crazy thing is the og silver sprayer was actually really really good. If it wasn’t for smelling this when it first came out at one of my local stores it wouldn’t be a big deal
Just got it a few days ago tried it, waited for the dry down, and what I got was Eucris from Geo F. Trumper. I've never smelled Aventus or any other clone, but like most reviewers said if this is 80% Aventus, then Creed have been cloning a fragrance that's been on the market since 1922.
Im new in Fragrance world, quite binge watching a lot of videos especially from
Jeremy but when I saw you with a collab with him I immedietely sub to you. I guess Im right about how high quality of your videos 💯👍🏼 Thanks sir
Thanks Kristian for the kind words and welcome!
you are my new favorite reviewer. spectacular work.
Thx! I really appreciate the kind words
Nicely and easily explained. Thank for giving this information.
When you started talking about the scientific side of the parfum i instantly subscribed. Just bought a bottle a few days ago and really love. Even when i can't smell it anymore i still get compliments.
Great review. I went for it!
I definitely won’t pay $300 for a product with so much batch variation and decreased quality over time.
I had the UAE version in 2019 and now have the France version. There's a major difference to me. The France version initial smell actually is decent. The UAE version was aweful. The drydown and projection goes to the UAE version. France version is more well rounded.UAE has the wow factor more. Both Perfect to wear in this mask age , why waste the real thing.
Great review with good knowedge on how a perfume is duplicated. The only major downside is the HIGH number of ads in the video which makes watching painful.
Wow I am glad I found this. Excellent review. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Thanks for the video. With you’re profession as an attorney I think that puts you in a very good position to compare this fragrance against Aventus. I started wearing fragrances about 5 years ago. In that time I’ve heard a lot about Creed Aventus and have wanted a bottle ever since. Most of not all of the fragrances I’ve purchased have been blind buys. I didn’t sample them anywhere before I purchased them. I was on the verge of purchasing a bottle of Aventus a few days ago but ultimately deleted it from my shopping cart. I’ve watched a lot of videos here on CZcams and learned that Aventus has been reformulated. One guy in a video compared an old batch with a new batch of Aventus. The older had a slightly greenish tint to in while the new was clear as water. Makes me wonder if Aventus is really as good as people say it is. I’m not about to pay $300/400 on a bottle of cologne without smelling it first even if all my other fragrances were blind buys. I still want to know what Creed Aventus smells like.I did purchase a bottle of club de Nuit intense a few days ago and with you’re video I believe I made the better choice. Thanks again!
Thanks Nucleus! Great comment. Appreciate the thoughts!
subbed. you‘re definitely a nice upgrade to the fragrance community !
Thx and welcome! I really appreciate the kind words!
Have watched many broadcasts about cdnim, this one is unique from all others. Nice review that I like. Thank you very much for this. Have a nice day. 👋😀👍
Just discovered your chanel. A very good objective review in an ocean of subjectivity. Well done Sir.
I like the 10min you spend explaining the process behind clones👍
Thx! I wanted to really provide a definitive and comprehensive explanation
i´ve been watching fragrance videos for a while, and a lot of youtubers. This is my first coment: Outstanding is the first video with my thoughts about club de nuit in such coincidence. I think is the most objective and honest, not snobish or pretencious critic of a fragrance i´ve seen on the web.
Wow, I'm speechless. Thank you so much Felipe for such kind words!
I got mine just a couple of days ago. I really like it. The opening is sharp as hell, but it smells really nice once it settles in after 1/2 hour or so and projects and performs really well.
👍👍
@@joelthenose Received multiple compliments wearing it out recently. For the price, I really don't think that there is a better value out there right now.
My son brought home a bottle, thought I would check out a review..... you blew my mind bro!
Thx dude!
Instantly subscribed.
Great energy.
This is the definitive CDNIM video.
Period.
Thanks Joel!
Thanks and welcome!!
Hi
I’ve bought my 3rd bottle of this but in the EDP this time. I find that the EDP is sensational compared to the EDT. The opening is no way near as harsh and lemon synthetic smelling in the ED PERFUME and I only have to put 2 squirts and it’s so strong and long lasting. Phenomenal
Black or silver atomizer ?
@@jeppemadsen2497
The Black atomiser
I just got mine yesterday after being very excited to receive it. I got hit with that harshness immediately and it created an instant coughing fit like that one you were imitating. I sadly cannot wear this one.
I really appreciate this guys content
Thx!
Thank you for finally explaining how fragrances are duplicated, i always wondered how they did it. Some clones are really good. I need to find me a really good clone of Interlude Man.
So try Midnight Oud Ard Al Zaafaran
I love Aventus, it may be my favorite fragrance. Having said that, I don't love Creed and would happily buy a fragrance that smelled identical to Aventus for a fraction of the price and lose zero sleep. Creed will relentlessly look for ways to cut costs while taking more money out of my pocket...I don't fault them, it's just business. But it makes my loyalty 100% dependent on the smell alone and my personal preference/experience. It's on them to give me no choice but to purchase their product if I want that experience and so far, they have...
CDNIM is decent- the opening is a bit jumbled and obtuse for me but it has flashes of brilliance in the deep dry down. I wouldn't say it's a spot on clone of Aventus in any way, shape or form- I would say it's a similar fragrance that achieves a similar feat for a different audience. I respect Armaf for what they've been able to do; I thought their bottles were tacky at first but I've grown to find them endearing. Their clones seem to have gotten better and better too with Milestone and Sillage now. All the while keeping this cult following for CDNIM, their first-ish and least identical clone in my book, for it's originality while being a clone of a well known scent which isn't easy to do. I own it, I'll wear it occasionally and if you're not super into fragrances but loved that one time you smelled Aventus- you probably won't even remember how different they are. But if you wear Aventus regularly and love it, it will not come close.
Deep analysis!
Amazingly informative video. Glad I subscribed. Will watch more
I like this video man, and you have a kick a** personality! Plus I love cologne videos. Just subbed after watching this! Keep them coming!
Thx and welcome Natanael!
CDNIM is my most complimented fragrance! And guys... ''Clone'' it's not a bad word!
Is it edp or edt?
@@x__ace EDT, but the parfume version is better in the opening.
@@alexyordanov7407 i don’t mind opening mate
Actually i have ordered edp one because I didn’t in details.
There is no big differences between EDT and EDP...only the opening in EDT is harsher.
Surprisingly CDNIM got more compliments than others cologne I got 😊
My first fragrance and still in my top 3 with Baccarat rouge and reflection man! I prefer this to the original!
I get compliments on it when worn :)
🙌
Interesting information in this review! Thanks 🙏🏻
Thanks for being honest!
Love the jacket. As a lover of sports jackets myself, I appreciate yours a ton.
Thx Billy!
Planel Ralph Lauren This Jacket
Man I’m going to be honest here. When I first started this video I told myself....I’m not going to like this guy . As the video came to a close you earned another sub. You quickly changed my mind. Good honest breakdown and I enjoy your energy. Keep it up man!
Thanks Dylan! I appreciate you being open-minded and giving me a chance. Welcome!

AWESOME REVIEW!!!
Keep doing!
You should see the DdNIM parfum (not EdP) limited edition from 2021. Velvet black fabric bag and a presentation like a present for a king. Qualitywise the whole club de nuit line is super good and super high rated. Be it Club de Nuit, Milestone, Sillage, CdNI Woman, CdN Woman. All the heavy swaroski stone flacons but the colour is different or the cup colour is golden, silver or black. From this line only Urban Man has a not so good reputation. Tres Nuit is good as well, Nice Oud a nice autum spring scent.
I bought it a week ago, and it's pretty good. It has legs, too. It's still projecting 6 hours after I sprayed it on and it gets compliments.
You pretty much hit the nail on the head with this review! I’ve been using this for almost 2 years now and I’ve gotten ENDLESS compliments…i live in the most southeast part of Kentucky…so im a frag GOD when I wear this. With the old batches (silver top) I’d add Demeter pineapple…and it was a BEAST! still this new batch is amazing! Mines 336216 and it needs no help!
P.S this should be kept a secret! I couldn’t stand to see all the dudes in my community wearing this! They all wear aqua di gio or dior sauvage….no niche here
Did you buy the EDP or EDT
Best bang for the buck...no question. Dua makes really good clones for Aventus as well but the price per Mil is definitely higher.
👍👍
I finally did it as well. Lol. Got the edt and the edp on the way. Should be any day now. Thanks for the great review. Blessings in all you do.
Hey did u get it? How is it? How’s the performance? And what’s the batch number
@@castersss i just got a bottle the statt is a little rough with citrus and earthy almost lavendar scent but the dry down is amazing very hqrd to beat and last forever
man this is so similar. its more syntetic obviously but the smell from open to drydown is amazing how similar it is. for the price its a no brainer
Why have I not seen this channel before, its like hidden in the CZcams world. Loved the content and the knowledge, I actually learned something watching this video. Instant sub
Thx and welcome!!

Welcome and thanks, Patric!
best breakdown on youtube. you should do their tres nuit, green irish tweed clone.
Thanks for this video @JoelTheNose, do you prefer the EDT or Eau De Parfum?
I was really considering Creed Aventus a few weeks ago until I stumbled upon Club De Nuit. It’s insane how similar they both smell. I just saved $400 😂
Score!
@@billb.7346 How much cheaper are they really when you consider what the manufacturing cost (labor and materials) is for a bottle of Aventus?
@@billb.7346 Check this chart and determine what the manufacturing cost of a bottle of Aventus is including labor. $20? From this article: www.yahoo.com/now/2012-05-22-celebrity-perfume-cost-breakdown.html
"If you bought a laptop that costs $1,000, the laptop might cost $600 to $700 to manufacture, but if you bought a lipstick for $25, it might cost 25 cents to manufacture," he said. "The same holds true for fragrances."
@@billb.7346 When any discussion of Creed occurs, it should be remembered that there's a chance that people are paying an insane 1,900% markup, unless they pick it up at the USA's top niche emporium, Costco, where it once sold for about $200 per bottle. Want the price to go down to what it really should cost? Let those bottles go stale on the shelves.
@@billb.7346 It's only been sold in Costco on rare occasions for anywhere from $200 to $250 in the past. You have to check their site regularly. I picked up a few 50 ml bottles of Tom Ford Black Orchid edp for $45 per a few years ago. As for paying top dollar for Aventus, this describes my opinion: czcams.com/video/OsjTO0yZQjk/video.html
If you or anyone else doesn't mind the possible 1,900% markup, it's your dough.
Awesome review man, kept it real!
Thx!
Cool Joel, thanks, just joined your channel and great honest truthful review. I have the whole line and I must just say its a Stella house, guys give the parfum a go too its great and just a little smokier, they even have the gold bottle which is a clone of Aventus milisium Imperial, which I have most of Aventus, this house is a great bang for your buck. Thanks Joel
Thx Toni and welcome!
I have them both and I couldn't tell the difference other than CDNIM projected stronger than CA with the same amount of sprays. (New Subscriber)
Welcome!
Thanks for the review. I've Been pondering buying this one. I feel like you have an honest, non- biased review. Did you buy the EDT or EDP version?
it’s in the title
@@victoreyo5014 Gotcha. Don't know how I missed that!
@@Bada_Boom78 I got the EDP. Everytime I wear it I get random compliments.
Wasn’t a sub but have watched your club de nuit videos, ordered the EDP and wow smells great! And you’ve given an awesome breakdown on this fragrance - subbed!
EDT smells better
I saw you for the first time with Jeremy. You gained a subscriber sir. I like your objectivity. You should review CDNIM ADP, I think you got the EDT. I think the EDP is slightly better.
Awesome and welcome!
I love it . Used a bottle up quickly. I have another partial and will order another, maybe a 60 ml.
Excellent detailed review! I have the EDT and EDP. I prefer the EDT so far and I have a recent batch of Creed Adventus. Yes, CDNIM is a great one often used in collection
Thx!
Fantastic video. I'm obsessed with Aventus and sometimes wear cdnim. Aventus is still king but the performance of cdnim is spectacular. Both are legends in their own right. Subbed!
Thx and welcome!
New to the fragrance community and after getting a little collection of my own of fragrances that cost upwards of $100, club de nuit was instantly my most noted scents when I use it. Everyone compliments it
I noticed the opening is very hard citrus and after 15 to 30minutes you get the pineapple, then after 1 hour it has smokey, pineapple smell it gets smoother after spraying it. I Can tell it really is strong and powerful on the first minutes when you spray it. First time i smelt it smelt like spruce needle and little like a tree on a forest. Greetings from Finland its good for its price. I'm really interested to get the famous Creed Aventus just to test it is it really that good.
“ you smell delicious! “ yeah, that is a real quote while wearing CDIM.
👍👍
I've HEARD THAT ONE ALSO CDIM IS THE REAL DEAL WHEN IT HITS A FEMALE NOSE.
Is that what prostitutes and crack heads tell you?
@@TheQuirby 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you for the information. The first time I hear that there is a machine that knows how to identify the ingredients of the perfume. You bring unique information in your channel. Continue like this and you will create a unique channel that goes deeper than the other channels in the whole perfume world.
Thx!
Its amazing. I really didnt like the first spray, but it just keeps smelling better the more it bakes.
I'll be watching your chanel a whole lot more... awesome review
Great review, I have 2 bottles of Creed and one is from ‘19 and one from ‘20 and a little disappointed in Creed lately! So, I’m going to spend a whopping $30 and go for it😁
Lol! 👍👍
Great review. I’m with you. I rarely wear designer frags anymore. Every since I started rockin niche my designers have been sitting. I have CDNIM EDT and EDP. The EDP is smoother. The opening from the EDT doesn’t bother me at all. 🤷🏽♂️. Holla.
Thx for the comment!
Didn’t give one cent care about expensive cologne but Im the Bleu Channel, Dior, Prada, Robanne category. The Aventus was considered my next choice but after they got sucked into a corporation and the original formula being changed, I rather not pay $300 for not the true Original smell. This, I can do this, also with the EDP thats out they have address that harsh opening and whatever else is wrong with it. I love the review and analysis.
You must be the best dressed and freshest smell lawyer ever. That’s dope that your into frags as much as you are and a lawyer.
I really appreciate this review. I just wish I would have found it 15 mins earlier, seeing as how I just bought a bottle of aventus lol.
Return it after it arrives. But before you do that... Amazon should have a cdnim at your doorstep in 2 days. You can compare the two. 🤷🏻♂️
@@mzabolotskiy95 if im not blown away by the aventus I might try lol.
@@pjbiggleswerth8903 I just purchased CDNIM and smells great!
Ok im back after some time. Cdnim edt/edp/LE parfum NONE of them smell even remotely close to aventus.
I fell in the aventus (and avent clone) rabbit hole the moment I entered the frag com. It's okay but overrated too. I do think afnan suprem silver, ard al zafraan, aventure are better bc they're airier, fruitier. Also, they all last longer than most western frags. But nowadays I just try different stuff I like myself not necessarily mass appealing :D
@JoelTheNose i can't decide i want to buy an club de nuit
but im not sure if i should go for EDT or EDP
what was your batch ?

I love everything about this fragrance. It's a pleasant and enjoyable smelling fragrance. And the price is right. What's not to love about Club De Nuit?
Edt??
I’m so glad I bought this instead of the large bottle of creed Adventus. How does it hold up in our Florida sun? Great video.
Thank you!!! I feel the same. It smells unreal. I like having the real deal but this is perfect man.. by the real deal and use this daily to not waste your aventus
