FAQFAQ
Few Aventus batches have developed the cult following of 11Z01, and Poseidon’s Elixir 11Z pays tribute to its unmistakable character. Juicy Pineapple, crisp Apple, and tart Blackcurrant Leaves open with a bright, fruity edge, sharpened by Bergamot and Pinkberries for a lively first impression.
As it settles, the fruit takes on a darker character. Smoky Birch brings depth to a heart of Jasmine, Rose, and Patchouli, while Oakmoss and Ambergris add a dry, textured quality that gives the composition its refined, unmistakably vintage feel.
Musk and Vanilla soften the finish with a smooth touch of warmth, leaving behind a confident trail that balances fruit, smoke, and earthiness. For those drawn to the character of vintage Aventus, this Creed Aventus dupe brings that sought-after spirit with its own distinctive take.

Incredible vintage campfire note smooth, rich, and dark
What makes DUA 11Z standout is the exceptional quality of its dark side. The smoke note here perfectly captures the essence of a vintage campfire it has that authentic, smoky wood-ember warmth without any chemical harshness. This rich, smoky birch accord blends flawlessly with the bright, sweet pineapple opening, creating a beautiful scent trail that shifts between fresh fruitiness and deep, masculine smoke. It feels mature, premium, and incredibly well-blended. If you miss the genuine, smoky character of the legendary batches, this will exceed your expectations 🍍💨🔥
Smells just like aventus but even longer lasting its incredible ive smelled the original and its amazing how they can recreate it. Would definitely buy again.
I sprayed this on at 10 am today, just showered and I still am getting beautiful wafts of that gorgeous deep birch dry down! Freaking killer! I prefer this on over the fruit forward elixir 2.0 but that one is still good. This one has the masculinity that I was looking for. It’s in the deep dry down it is just amazing I love it!
I am on the fence about this cologne as I do not smell anything but the smoke, no other ingredients. No normal cologne drydown change, just smoke from beginning to end. Don't spray more than a few times or you will regret it. It isn't exactly unpleasant but I kept waiting on a drydown that never happens.
This is the King that made Aventus famouse. 2011 is the year of the SMOKE.
The sparkling smoke is my favorite note in Aventus and always wished the OG had much more smoke and didnt vanish so fast.
This right here is the SMOKE BOMB in a good way. This birch tar from Spain is different than the rest of the smoke in the other batches, it just smells rich and royal and regal.
Projection and sillage on this one is top tier, you wont have ANY Complaints.
I always get compliments from women wearing this one. Its always a "wow".
If you love this specific birch Smoke from Spain then most DEFINELTY get these im about to mention.
My Top Aventus batches:
1) Poseidon 11Z
2) Poseidon Remixed Mod 1....this is a desert heat smoke, imagine 11Z without the opulence and the smoke being on fire in a dry heat desert. The pineapple in this one is a mature dark pineapple. Imagine when the Pineapple fruit gets mature, the colors change from a yellow to a more deep yellow orange color.
Also probably my most potent Dua.
This CUTS THROUGH the 110F weather.
3) Poseidon Remixed Mod 3. Its the same smoke as in 11Z but dialed 50% back but the ambroxan crystals is still giving it a LIFT. It smells opulent and STRONG. It has added iso e super and juniper berries, but not much, just enough for a slight twist.
Honorable mention: Poseidon 13N. I dont think its the same smoke as in 11Z, its identical but still good. If you love a FRUITY smoke then most definelty get 13N. Its very fruity and smoky.
Ive smelled a lot of clones of Aventus and no one does it better than Dua. They cant come CLOSE to the high quality as this one right here.
I am glad this Creed Brand is back! Your perfumes do last 24 hours. This Creed Aventus really better than Original, it almost the original smell but lasts for long period of time. I did tried Original Creed Aventus, it smells amazing but last only for 2 or 3 hours, that's it; And you will have to spray it again. It is surprising, this Creed aventus has 5 stars review, but original on Creed boutique only 4.4 Stars.
I’m obsessed with this on my husband! I have never smelled the OG but I’ve always heard about it. This batch sounded the best to me. I can’t get enough of it. I wear it sometimes while working from home and can’t stop sniffing my arm. I do think it’s too masculine for me to wear in public though. It starts off pine heavy but give it 20 minutes and it’s manly, musky and intoxicating.
Definitely not truly Aventus but it's a more birchy masculine Aventus. When I spray it the first 15 minutes are a little weird, there's no pineapple, it's more of a tart apple with musk. After you get through that opening this becomes amazing. Birchy/piney mixing with the apple, bergamot, and jasmine.
This is a different scent but awesome!
Second bottle and won’t be my last. This is the perfect year round everyday, everywhere scent. It has this impossible smokiness to it that I’ve only ever smelled in this cologne. This one can’t be beat.
Exquisito esto es aventus en botella de dua
Mirando comentarios encontré uno de 1 estrella ⭐️ y pidió que lo dejaran diciendo que esto apesta yo creo que se equivocó aveces solo por criticar tiras mierda yo cuando conocí dua me regalaron un decant de esta fragancia y no lo dude 2 veces el mejor clon de aventus es esto ni la bestia negra ni otra lo iguala simplemente jenial estrella ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 🌟 💫
Solid Smokey 🐻
What can I say, let’s keep it simple. Dua does this profile justice as they’re known for overall. Great composition of this batch, the performance and development are solid, no complaints…You want smoke?You found it.
I Tried Not To Like This
I wasted my money buying the original Creed Aventus because I never use it lol I always put on my 11z this is my signature. I always get compliments when I wear this! I tried so hard to find every reason not to like this and wear the original Creed Aventus but this is BETTER! Hands Down 10 out of 10 killer fragrance! I ordered two more bottles just because I never want to run out.
Of course I own Creed Aventus, this stuff is a splitting image of the scent that will not kill your pockets. I wanted to wear the fragrance a lot more and now I can. Keep killing it Dua, you guys haven't missed yet!!!!
Comprehensive Review:
Scent: This is a staple fragrance perfect for the spring. Extremely versatile and multi-seasonal but primarily excellent for the spring. Can be worn at the workplace or grabbing drinks with friends. The opening of the trademark aventus pineapple is bright without being overwhelming. Beautifully rolls into apple and bergamot. The ambergris and musk finish provides the lasting masculine elements that pulls in the compliments.
Presentation: The bottles glass design fit so well in the hand for control and dexterity. Easy to view how much product is left. The staple is the pressurized atomizer. This should be the standard everywhere. I am not a fan of the redesigned wooden cap. I'm sure the change was for cost purposes with the improved atomizer. In a perfect world, I would prefer the magnetic cap.
Overall: the quality of product is of high quality.
I've been a customer for years now since my friend introduced me to this scent. I'm hesitant to share this review because I wantv to keep this secret for myself :)
Doesn’t smell like recent batches of Aventus, but I assume that’s part of the batch variation nature. Doesn’t project, but smells good. Performs mediocre for an extrait.
My favorite perfume
Long lasting smelling, high quality, fruity chypre are attributes that best describes this perfume. I’ve been using it since 2019 as my signature fragrance. And I wish Dua to continue producing it. Great!
Good stuff
This is far better than 13zz.i love that citrus blast you get from 11z.so far I have bought mod 3,11z & 13zz an 2 out of 3 have been hits for me.my 2 favorites are mod 3 & 11z.these frags are so rich an long lasting its insane.if I had to put a number on it,they are 95% aventus.
Beautiful perfume
My son love this perfume! Creed aventus is his favorite and this one smells very similar and stays longer. The notes are pretty close, wait until it dries out and you will enjoy this smell!
An exquisite smell
I do not know the original because of the high costs, but this is a great fragrance, it has nothing to envy the other brands, without a doubt this company has a great future !!!
Gets better the more you use it
I’m not sure where my original review went but I’m glad it’s gone. I initially gave it four stars saying that it was way too heavy on the birch and almost like a pine tree scent. However, after using it for a while, I’m not sure if there’s a reaction that occurs between the air pumped in from the atomizer and the fragrance but I swear it smells better and better each time I spray it. The only complaint that I have (and it’s minuscule) is that the top cap piece is loose. It sits on top but doesn’t have a tight secure fit like my other two Dua fragrances. Overall though, no complaints about performance. I think my next move will be Poseidon’s Elixer 2.0
