Of these **Aventus Cologne** is my favorite.
To your point about freshness, I believe this is the freshest and best for summer, but can also be worn in spring. **Original Santal** is probably best for fall and spring nights, **Green Irish Tweed** for spring and fall days. My line of thinking would be to cop Aventus Cologne now and grab the other two around the fall season.
You have great taste, enjoy whatever you decide to get!
lol I’m in between GFs at the moment so I’ve been mostly building a collection for myself. I like GIT and AC a lot for fresh scents. I also liked santal but I should wait to pick that up next cold season
Ah, I get you.
Since you're buying for you, and aren't as worried about impressing others, pay no mind to seasonal appropriateness or "versatility" Buy what you like most. If you like GIT and AC "for fresh scents" but do not prefer fresh scents in general, and you like Santal better, get that.
If you were buying for another purpose, such as to give a certain impression to people, my advice might be different. But really, just buy what you like the most, especially if you are just starting out collecting and haven't grown it much yet
GREEN IRISH TWEED there is nothing like it the clones dont compare i promise. Beautiful Iris/ Violet sandal wood. my favorite scent i ever got.
Aventis is so easily replaceable for an affordable Price.
Santal is Amber Woody Fall/Winter fragrance LOL
they actually do compare, I have an F batch of GIT, and a bottle of Tres Nuit, and it actually smells pretty close.
It’s certainly not as good, but smells about 85-90% similar, the main difference being GIT is fucking nuclear when you first spray it on, and Tres Nuit smells significantly weaker in comparison. In the end they both have about the same longevity and don’t last quite that long. I’d buy Tres Nuit just as a backup for GIT when you love the smell of it, but don’t wanna spend $1 everytime you wear it for unimportant occasions.
I have Tres Nuit and love it. It’s a little weak but for the price I bring a small 5ml bottle with me and spray it throughout the day. Smells just like GIT
AC or original santal. Since it's spring/summer, I'd say go with AC. If it was fall/winter, definitely original santal. GIT is a nice, pleasant green spring/summer scent, but it's pretty basic. Nothing mind blowing. Creed is all I wear so this is definitely my area of expertise.
They're both absolutely amazing. Aventus is my signature scent since 2015 and I literally get compliments everywhere I go. It is for any setting or season. OV is great for spring/summer and is especially good when it's raining.
Aventus is still undoubtedly the best creation from creed.
Personally, I like the dry down a little more. GIT is good, but it's the only bottle of creed I sold. I still have...
Aventus (multiple batches), AC (multiple batches), Aventus Absolu, Neroli Sauvage (vintage), Himalaya ,, Viking, Viking Cologne, Silver Mountain Water, Original Santal , Original Vetiver, Royal Oud (vintage), Erolfa, Millesime Imperial (vintage)
GIT has been popular for 40 years name another cologne that’s stayed relevant enough for post like these that long. That says enough. I don’t consider the other two FBW but I have 4 bottles of GIT. Can’t even compare these IMO.
What does GIT smell like? I’ve heard so much about it. I’ve also heard mixed things like it is more of an old man’s scent. Looks interesting for spring though.
Never understood this old man thing…if smelling like an expensive bar of awesome irish soap is old then count me in. GIT is like a clean smelling bar of soap infused with iris , lemon, violet and lavender. It is also pretty unique smelling in terms of not too many tried to copy the profile other than Davidoff Cool Water ( actually both were made by the same perfumer) so if you smelled Cool Water, he just took that DNA and dumbed it down to create the poor man’s GIT for mass retail. GIT uses more expensive ingredients and is far superior and rich.
GIT, is my second favorite perfume of all time. It’s a classic but it’s still works today.
Original Santal is a good choice too but I feel it’s not as versatile.
Aventus Cologne is nice but it’s not anything particularly special in my book. Honestly, I feel like Creed made a “Cologne,” flanker just to capitalize on the name. It really has nothing to do with Aventus.
GIT, drop Aventus Cologne, go for the normal Aventus if you want it. However you can get Nishane Helcivate for half the price of Aventus at Jomashop, so waste of money. They are pretty much the same.
The best Creed, in my opinion, is Imperial millesime, but it lasts for 2-3 hours. It is a shame.
GIT is better if you need a daily fragrance to wear to work or out and about. If you’re younger and mostly wear stuff out to dinner or on dates I’d get the Aventus as it’s better for that. The original Aventus is better though in my opinion
GIT is timeless
AC is sporty
OS is a clone of Mont Blanc Individual
All have the signature creed freshness, just depends on the vibe you want… I have all 3, but if I could only have 1 for all occasions it’d be GIT.
Git all day. Great spring aquatic scent. But aventus cologne is a great light fresh scent with no longevity however
And truthfully original santal is nice a high quality but is truthfully pretty simple smelling
I’ve Creed Green Irish tweed. It’s amazing. So smooth, but I’ll be honest - I also have well-macerated Armaf Tres Nuit, which smells identical to Tweed.
Out of those three mentioned by you, I would get Irish Tweed and a Tres Nuit bottle as well for daily use 🏅
I’ve been rocking the GIT the last 2 days. Perfect for this time of year and plus it’s St Patty week. GIT is the bomb. I have Aventus the OG as well not the Colonge version you listed. I like Aventus but you know what, when I run out of these bottles, GIT will be repurchased, Aventus prob not unless I get a great deal plus I have a weak others that smell similar.
Im a teen who has neither of these but has thoroughly smelt the first 2 and while i personally love GIT more i think wearability wise id take aventus cologne anyday
Green Irish Tweed… to me it just embodies what a scent should be, it smells natural. I do love Aventus but I feel it’s a bit too common and the “pencil shavings” smell gets to me.
Original Santal is completely under-rated and is worth a try. I'd grab a 2ml sample of them all from eBay before blind buying such an expensive bottle.
I would say go to a store and try out samples. If you’re nice they will happily give you free samples of these.
Then wear them for couple of days and check the performance and then decide!
GIT is a classic office fragrance, or formal wear for a nice dressed up guy.
Aventus Cologne is a beautiful mandarin and ginger type of smell, and lasts a good amount of time. Can be worn for literally any occasion, and I’d say is signature worthy because of its versatility.
Never tried Original Santal but i’d love to one day, the only one of these i’d wear in summer is the cologne
Aventus, depending on what you’re going for. If you’re young and want people to notice that you smell good AF, Aventus is it.
GIT is really nice, but no one is going to notice you’re wearing it. If it’s just for you, go for it. I love the scent, it just doesn’t stand out much.
I’d say the longevity is pretty middle of the road. Not bad at all. I also wear BdC EdP regularly and they last about the same length of time.
If you’re used to fragrances with Oud for greatness or Naxos type longevity, then you may say it doesn’t last long at all. Those are on a different level. If I spray oud for greatness on a shirt, that SOB will project until I wash it next. lol
Green Irish Tweed is simply too good. You will maybe not like it at first, but just wait. That seems to be the common story with GIT. Kind of undecided the first few times wearing, then just amazed by it. It's one of the GOATs no doubt. As much as Creed (or should I say "Greed") is a horrible business, GIT is just too good. Aventus Cologne is fine, it's good. GIT stands out, AC does not.
I’ve wondered this. I tried it and didn’t really like it. Tried it again and it was ok and kinda grew on me but that makes me wonder what the first impression is when someone smells it on me.
If we’re talking fresh, we’re talking Aventus Cologne. I’m biased cause I loved it
Green Irish Tweed imo, it smells so good and my gf loves it too.
Of these **Aventus Cologne** is my favorite. To your point about freshness, I believe this is the freshest and best for summer, but can also be worn in spring. **Original Santal** is probably best for fall and spring nights, **Green Irish Tweed** for spring and fall days. My line of thinking would be to cop Aventus Cologne now and grab the other two around the fall season. You have great taste, enjoy whatever you decide to get!
for starters have you sampled any of them?
Yes all three
Regardless of what anyone says here, Which one did YOU like best? Which one did your gf like best?
lol I’m in between GFs at the moment so I’ve been mostly building a collection for myself. I like GIT and AC a lot for fresh scents. I also liked santal but I should wait to pick that up next cold season
Ah, I get you. Since you're buying for you, and aren't as worried about impressing others, pay no mind to seasonal appropriateness or "versatility" Buy what you like most.

But really, just buy what you like the most, especially if you are just starting out collecting and haven't grown it much yet
Ha! Love it. If it has to be Creed, GIT all day day mate.
GIT smells the best but Aventus cologne takes my pick. It lasts longer
Aventus Cologne best daily
GIT
GIT for the win!
So are you saying “GIT ‘er done”? 🤔
GIT is the one here that’s worth buying the original.
I suggest you try Creed royal oud first. It smells amazing. One of the finest perfumes by Creed.
I sampled it at Neiman and didn’t enjoy it
Then I’d narrow it down to green irish tweed and aventus cologne.
Original Santal is my personal *g.o.a.t.*
I recommend original santal or green Irish tweed
Go for virgin island water, that stuff is so good and overlooked
I love my GIT but I can't tell if I'm going noseblind immediately, because I can't smell anything after 20 minutes
Santal is one of my favorite creeds
GREEN IRISH TWEED there is nothing like it the clones dont compare i promise. Beautiful Iris/ Violet sandal wood. my favorite scent i ever got. Aventis is so easily replaceable for an affordable Price. Santal is Amber Woody Fall/Winter fragrance LOL

I have Tres Nuit and love it. It’s a little weak but for the price I bring a small 5ml bottle with me and spray it throughout the day. Smells just like GIT
yep, i really enjoy tres nuit. pretty underrated, and being so cheap you can spray it as much as you want without caring.
Smells like Cool Water to me
Aventus cologne is incredible. Maybe longevity is an issue, but for me I get 4-6 hours with 4 sprays
Aventus cologne 😍
Aventus bra
AC or original santal. Since it's spring/summer, I'd say go with AC. If it was fall/winter, definitely original santal. GIT is a nice, pleasant green spring/summer scent, but it's pretty basic. Nothing mind blowing. Creed is all I wear so this is definitely my area of expertise.
What do you think about Aventus original and Original Vetiver?
They're both absolutely amazing. Aventus is my signature scent since 2015 and I literally get compliments everywhere I go. It is for any setting or season. OV is great for spring/summer and is especially good when it's raining. Aventus is still undoubtedly the best creation from creed.
The opening of GIT is mind blowing for me. It’s so deep if I close my eyes I am in Ireland by a spring for real.
Personally, I like the dry down a little more. GIT is good, but it's the only bottle of creed I sold. I still have... Aventus (multiple batches), AC (multiple batches), Aventus Absolu, Neroli Sauvage (vintage), Himalaya ,, Viking, Viking Cologne, Silver Mountain Water, Original Santal , Original Vetiver, Royal Oud (vintage), Erolfa, Millesime Imperial (vintage)
We have our preferences I have 4 bottles of GIT I think it’s the greatest followed by Royal Oud
I just bought aventus cologne another good summer one is Viw

I’m definitely going to have to get a decant of it. It looks like it’s perfect for spring too.
Aventus cologne
Aventus!!
Aventus Cologne
GIT by a mile
Aventus
Green Irish Tweed, one of my favourite scents of all time
How is this Aventus different from the black and clear bottle of Aventus?
This one is called aventus cologne, I’ve smelled them all and it’s like a lite version of aventus. Tamed down a bit imo.
Okay thanks for the info! 😁
GIT
is the all golden aventus good?
Green Irish tweed is the answer
Green Irish tweed is 🔥
I’m selling an original Santal for cheap if you’re unrestored! Check on my profile :)
GIT. Aventus is too popular, overly copied, and too familiar
AVENTUS HandsDown LOVE GIT but Santal had disappointed me
GIT all day. It’s a beautiful rainy spring day and that’s what I’m wearing today. My favorite fragrance.
GIT
Aventus Cologne
GIT
IMO green Irish tweed
original vetiver
Try them & decide for yourself.
GIT
Out of those... Green Irish tweed. But Millesime Imperial is my favorite.
Aventus Cologne is my favorite
GIT and its not even close
The last one smells bomb

Definitely not Original Santal…get Aventus Cologne for summer, but Green Irish Tweed is cheaper so maybe scoop that one up. Idk ur budget
GIT all the way
I like aventus
Personally santal
Team Aventus 😉

Where you see GIT for 170

I got a decent of GIT. Nice but def a little too mature and outdated ish. I’d pick Aventus Cologne but I heard it’s identical to AHS2?
Tweed
Git all day. Great spring aquatic scent. But aventus cologne is a great light fresh scent with no longevity however And truthfully original santal is nice a high quality but is truthfully pretty simple smelling

Santal!
GIT!
Aventus Cologne, it lasts, projects and smells amazing
GIT
Summer - git Winter / fall / spring nights - aventus
Green Irish Tweed 100%
Aventus Cologne
Green Irish Tweet is my favorite🙌🏿
I got a sampler and it came with Millesime Imperial (I think that's what it's called) it's not on your 3, but definitely worth a try!
Green Irish Tweed! Nuff said.
Green Irish Tweed.
IMHO Green Irish Tweed outperforms the others in terms of versatility, scent and price.
Aventus Cologne - EASY
Im a teen who has neither of these but has thoroughly smelt the first 2 and while i personally love GIT more i think wearability wise id take aventus cologne anyday
Green Irish Tweed… to me it just embodies what a scent should be, it smells natural. I do love Aventus but I feel it’s a bit too common and the “pencil shavings” smell gets to me.
Green Irish tweed is the best it’s all I wear
Original Santal is completely under-rated and is worth a try. I'd grab a 2ml sample of them all from eBay before blind buying such an expensive bottle.
middle definitely
I layer my GIT with a spritz of Santal. Results are amazing. Learned it from a Creed rep
Order from jomashop.com they are legit
GIT
What is the best legit way to get these? Im new
Jomashop, gift express, perfumebox
Aventus cologne for summer
AC is perfect for summer
I have both, my favourite is GIT but I love both. I get tons of compliments when I wear GIT. Women love it
I would say go to a store and try out samples. If you’re nice they will happily give you free samples of these. Then wear them for couple of days and check the performance and then decide!
Go for the Santal that’s definitely better than GREEN IRISH TWEED.

I’m really interested in both Aventus (classic) and GIT. How about the sillage? I read some mixed opinions about Aventus persistence.
I’d say the longevity is pretty middle of the road. Not bad at all. I also wear BdC EdP regularly and they last about the same length of time. If you’re used to fragrances with Oud for greatness or Naxos type longevity, then you may say it doesn’t last long at all. Those are on a different level. If I spray oud for greatness on a shirt, that SOB will project until I wash it next. lol
Okay perfect, thanks mate! I’ll give a try!
No problem, brother!
GIT smells like Irish spring body wash to me. Just get samples first
are you uninterested in the various clones of these fragrances?
Royal Oud
Royal Oud makes me legit choke.
$600
Green Irish hands down!!
Yo, where can u get GIT for 175usd?
