Im not sure what part of Creed you worked for but if you have any idea how manufacturing works, you will know there is NOTHING that can not be duplicated, EXACTLY. Even something created by man, like art can be reproduced . How much you think a 3.4oz bottle of Creed cost to create? My brother 60%-95% of your colognes and perfumes are ALCOHOL.... If I had too guess across the board high end luxury brands like Creed have a 50x-100x mark up and that may be generous. Just keeping thinking movie popcorn if you ever think you are paying what something is worth. If you are not in this industry or any type of manufacturing, I dont mean sales, or sales rep you would be SHOCKED at the margins. 'dont believe the white mans ice is colder', companies tell you all kind of stuff to get more 'value' from your dollar.
Quick story, we was on Amazon and we were set to do (lets just say, when I worked my salary x 10), I ended up getting connected with a brother who was liaison that went back and forth to China, put me on to another world of manufacturing, where Best Buy, Walmart etc got there electronics for CHEAP. Long story short they asked me how much I got my bottles for, I was like man Im killing it I get them for like .12-.13 a piece. Now we get them maybe 20k at a time, maybe 4 times a year. Im on the phone with Chinese cat and they send over this doc with specs of the bottles etc. .007 a piece! Thats less than 1 cent for a bottle. Now I had to get like a million of them but my point is the average consumer has NO IDEA how much these companies make.
EX#2 a Brooks Brothers shirt costs less then a $1 to make, great material and design etc. They charge consumer $60-$80
This is not an attack on you or your knowledge base but I actually make a fairly good living off what Im speaking on, its not just a hobby. Peace
Appreciate it fam

Anything other cologne You like smelling on a man?
@BronxBomber my order arrived today.
Quick tl;dr review- 10/10
Pic as proof of purchase:
I scraped the labeling using my knife to open the tight ass bubble wrap. They were not letting my shyt break lol. Also sent me 2 samples.
I bought the Aventus mainly bevause I saw the bickering about it. And also got the Lost Cherry because I was honestly just intrigued. Got them both as roll ons because I just like roll ons. The samples are Unknown Pleasure and Delina.
The only one I’ve tried on is the Lost Cherry and lol nikka been wearing it for about an hour and it’s like it has its own little subtle presence mingling with mine. I dunno what the original smells like but this will fukking do. Wonderful fragrance. I’ve sniffed the others and found them all to be nice, respectively. My next purchase will likely include Unknown Pleasure.
All together, a pleasant experience purchasing from the breh and his company. Literally have no reason to go to Macy’s anymore.

Real talk, your best bet it is to test them out for yourself. I've checked some of recommendations cats made on here, but they weren't my cup of tea. Also, I'm the type of dude who hates wearing popular fragrances that everybody wears.
