You can't go wrong with either one of these frags. My only regret is that I didn't cop more of the Acqua Viva when @Baise hosted the split. Longevity and sillage are solid with AV. I bought a spare bottle of Chanel Edition Blanche before it vanished from Bloomies. I believe you can still get the Chanel EB from Chanel's website. Great to have these two in the lineup.Strongly considering an edition Blanche/aqua viva combo.
Niche Frags:What's a good, clean summer time scent? Looking for a couple new fragrances to pick up
Its not worth it at all. Neither are those $250 kicks.
this is mei don't even think twice when copping shoes, but for some reason i always hesitate to buy cologne for that much... i'm still rocking with issey miyake, issey miyake summer 2012, chanel platinum, la nuit, and pure malt.. i've been wanting to grab aventus , but that $250 always scares me even tho i know it's worth it

Don't listen to that analogy, but you might be able to get a sample of Aventus from Neiman Marcus if you want to try it out.

You cant take it with you though when you pass.
"Worth it" is subjective. If you are living paycheck to paycheck and you're dropping $250 on anything outside of the necessities, it may not be worth it.

Absolutely. The Chanel Line alone is the best bang for your buck IMO
There's a lot of great colognes way under $250 so i'm still good at the end of the day
Son, regardless of how great a scent is, $250 is too much period. Worth it is subjective yes, but quality on a scented liquid? Its not like shoe or phone technology, quality on a SCENT only goes so far. I understand longevity, etc etc but still.

But if you got a decent amount of disposable income and want to indulge, then it's fair game.
But you pay for quality. And people rarely pay full price for Aventus. Most catch it on sale or in a split. I got my 2.5 oz for $140 last summer and I still have half of it left. Worth every single penny my man.

On that case, ill probably try in the future to grab a bottle on a cheaper site, but $250 is absurd.
Quality.
it is pretty on point though
you have $250 shoes and $75 shoes; just like with colognes
people substitute all kinds of things in life to stay within their budgets
someone over on Basenotes probably thinks it's ridic. to buy $250 sneakers just like most NTers would think paying $250 for cologne is absurd
Cologne isn't meant to last as long as shoes are. I don't know why you'd want a bottle of Aventus for years, it's not wine .
Im not bashing on anyone if ive clearly said a couple times im more than willing to shell out for a bottle.
I just find it ridiculous that people are trying to justify its price. IMO, $250 is absurd for a cologne, no matter how you look at it. If you need to justify its price with this argument or that argument, fine but thats neither here nor there.
First of all. I'm not your "son".

Selective reading man. Did I not say people always catch it on sale?
