What People Say

Creed Aventus

One wearer enjoys the airy pineapple-and-green-apple impression and reaches for Aventus most among the alternatives they tried.

One longtime owner particularly loves the woody, musky drydown.

One skin tester finds the pineapple and citrus too dominant, with less depth than they expected.

Some wearers wish it lasted longer on their skin; others report a lasting woody base.

Rasasi Egra

One wearer enjoys the musky woods, oakmoss and forest-like character.

Another wearer prefers Egra’s smell in a personal comparison with Green Irish Tweed.

That second wearer still finds Egra more artificial and less smooth than Green Irish Tweed.

A different owner initially dislikes its sharpness, although they later start to enjoy it.

The Verdict

Choose Aventus for fruity citrus and pineapple with smoky birch. Choose Egra for green aromatic woods, iris and oakmoss. Egra’s forest-like profile is a different choice from Aventus’s fruity woody character.
