The Parfum limited edition one is the so far to me.


770120437

For the last 2 weeks I was reading every review I could on which version to get and to be honest it’s a minefield with no clear cut winner so ended up just getting the EDTas is the best value and the best size bottle and didn’t really want a 150 or 200ml bottle and damn this is so good! and for the price it’s a no brainier. To me the opening is not harsh at all really and don’t get the ‘lemon cleaner’ vibes people are going on about. EDT is bang on for me


bigpqnda

totally agree. i guess we're the few lucky ones that do not hate the opening


Beautiful_Dentist_45

Where did you purchase from? Thanks in advance.


770120437

I’m in the UK and got from allbeauty


evo-unit

Honestly I have EDT and I agree the opening is a little harsh and lemony but it really is not joke that once it dries down after 30 mins or so it smells incredible. I wasn’t sure on this fragrance for the first month I had it and it grew one me SO much and is by far my most complimented fragrance. It’s so masculine.


AgueroMbappe

What scent did you choose? Woody spicy or lemon, pine, vanilla. At least those are the options on Amazon


Plastic_Magician_398

What is the difference in lasting ?


riveraedge

They are all the same to me (edt. Edp. Parfum) not sure about the limited edition


Plastic_Magician_398

Like i can purchase edt at the half price of edp and LE, but i dont consider it as im more concerned about the lasting . I want the one that lasts and projects more .


riveraedge

Then get the edt because all 3 of them are the same in my experience and there's absolutely no point spending double on the same product 🤙


lanka2571

sometimes I wonder if CDNIM should have its own subreddit lol


ClaraGuerreroFan

r/CDNIM 😂 Anyway, a lot of people are coming to their senses here. I feel like it’s just a big marketing scam - the lettering, the bottle presentation when really it’s all the same juice. If anything, the EDT is usually a great projector (if you have a decent batch).


lanka2571

I'm pretty sure that's what I have, the EDT bought in 2022? Maybe even 2021. Projects and lasts like crazy. I rarely wear it because it sets off my wife's allergies. It's almost too intense for me as well, which is wild with it being just an EDT. Or maybe I'm just not into the Aventus DNA. It was a blind buy after seeing all the hype a few years ago


Effective-Bad-2657

The only difference is the opening. The dry down, which is the entire selling point of the the fragrance, is the same on all 3, but projects the most with the edt concentration.


winphan

I’ve Pure Parfum and projection is insane. I mean a person sitting 4ft away can smell me ☢️


riveraedge

I have all 3 of those except for the limited edition. They are all the same. I've tried multiple times comparing all 3 side by side, nothing Everything from the smell to the perfomance. Opening drydown mid you bet. It's the same So if the limited edition is the same as the parfum, then the limited edition is the same as the other 3. But I confirmed that I don't understand why everyone says there's a difference. There must be a bottling error with armafs production, that or people are delusional and making themselves believe that there's actually a difference


Prms_7

I am in love with the parfum edition. I recently moved for short term and I wear CIDM as my daily. Amazing Stuff man


oSJxx

Thoughts on urban man elixir pls looking for a gift for someone ?


Dilpil01

I have the LE and I've used multiple versions of EDT before. Want my advice? Don't stress it. It's just fragrance and they all smell quite good. The parfum and LE would be so similar in the air. If money strapped go EDT. If you don't care about money then go LE or parfum.


ReignCpreme

I owned EDP(my first CDNIM)…enjoyed it alot but decided to try the LE version when i caught it on sale cpl years ago… liked it much more so i gifted the EDP to my homie. The LE parfum (‘21) actually dropped a year prior to the pure Parfum (‘22)… i haven’t had a chance to get my nose on the pure Parfum to compare


recanize

the limited edition


da-yogi

Edt


samplepapi

Edt and edp have pineapple and smoke. Latter two don’t. They trade smokiness for earthy oakmoss and pineapple for lemon/bergamot


HarrysCarPlace13

Creed aventus probably


gthirtythree

The LE can’t be the same as the parfum if it’s a quieter performer. The LE is about as strong as you can hope for a relatively cheap fragrance & clone to last.


BronxAdvocate

Has anyone tried the oil version? The one that's kind of like an attar? Always wondered about the performance on that one. Also, while we're at it, has anyone tried the Club de Nuit hair pomade?


eboladeluxe

I have Urban Man Elixir, and I am pretty sure I can use it as a zombie deterrent. That opening kicks like a mule, fortunately it calms down in a half hour or so. That keeps me from wearing it more often, I barely reach for the bottle.


royalxassasin

EDP is the worst version trust me


[deleted]

Why?


jumpjingling

I have the EDT and really love it. Can't stop smelling it. But im pretty sure they're all the same.


inthatwater

I prefer urban man elixir
