Morning Chess

Evening wine tasting event. Sprayed it on six or seven times literally five hours before. Well into the tasting the mention of what colonge I had on came up. One long time friend who has literally smelled every fragrance imaginable on me. And one complete stranger, just met at the tasting. Both women were feeling quite sexy themselves, due to all the wine that was had. But the say a drunk mind, has a sober mouth. And as they both stood taking long sniffs of me. My friend that's never been moved by anything I've ever worn, drunk or sober, or otherwise. Says to the stranger, "now that's what a grown man is supposed to smell." Mic drop...

Loved it!!

Another aventus creed not as pungent. Good scent just too many less expensive clones out there to spend that much ona fragrance that is so overdone

Exquisite scent

I really appreciate this cologne. It smells like the name it self. It perform in different ways. When I put a couple dabs on it perform in one way when I put more than a couple dabs on and perform another way. It's very unique. For me is very masculine on. For my wife it's not the same smell it's different she say on her. In reality it forms better on me then her. This is a fragrance I always look to have in my collection. It's not a everyday fragrance for me, it could be for someone if you can smell the same thing everyday. That's your preference I cannot smell the same thing every day so I feel I will never have a signature scent because at some point I believe I will get tired of smelling the same thing every day. To each it's own. This is a grown up fragrance for me that's done with Macy's fragrances. Body sprays is elementary school 95% of Macy's fragrances middle school and niche fragrances is high school / college😂

love the scent and service

Morning Chess is certainly Aventus esque. Heavier on the black currant, no pinneapple. With current formulations of Aventus being watered down Morning Chess has the stronger juice.

Morning Chess has quickly become my favorite cologne. It opens with bright citrus notes, perfect for the AM. Later after the dry down, you catch rich whiffs of various spices, honey, amber, etc. The whole experience is very pleasant throughout.

My initial interest in morning chess was because I had heard that it was very similar to Creed Aventus, and the dry down is very similar. But there’s something else that makes this fragrance very different from aventus. This has a leather accord and some earthiness to it (maybe hay?, I’m not sure) that’s very intriguing to me. This scent grew on me the more I wore it, totally aside from anything to do with aventus. I would definitely buy a bigger quantity of morning chess. 4.5 stars!

It has similarities to Cedrat Boise but a bit nutty. The scent was just okay for me. Maybe because I already have a full bottle of the Cedrat Boise. I had high expectations for this scent. Sad to say it was a let down for me.
