CREED Aventus Eau de Parfum Spray, 50ml at John Lewis & Partners

A sensual, audacious and contemporary scent, Aventus is inspired by the dramatic life of a historic emperor who waged war, peace and romance with equal magnitude.

Perfect for the bold, spirited and confident, Aventus opens with tantalising top notes of blackcurrant and Italian bergamot, blended with Calville Blanc apples and sparkling pineapple.

A woody and heady centre is complemented with notes of roses, Jasmine blossom and patchouli, while a rich base of oak moss, ambergris and a touch of vanilla provides a final flourish to this sophisticated scent.

Launched with immediate acclaim in 2010 to celebrate Creed’s 250th anniversary, Aventus celebrates strength, power, vision and success - the ideal scent for individuals who savour a life well-lived.
