If you're participating in the Lather Games on the other website, today's theme is:

Dupelgänger

Product scent must demonstrably be a duplication of another company's fragrance (e.g. Stirling Executive Man is a dupe of Creed Aventus).

    I was interested in trying Aventus dupes a couple of years ago. I tried a number of samples and actually bought tubs of some of them. Of the ones I have, I think Succès is the best. I doubt that it is note-for-note accurate but, to me, it has the best feeling of high-key freshness that real Aventus has.

    Here is my artist's rendering of the cover.
