1709 Original Eau de Cologne לעומת Aventus

The 1709 Original Eau de Cologne by Farina is recognized within the r/fragrance community as a legitimate classic and essential piece of cologne history from the original Kölnisch Wasser tradition in Germany. While rarely discussed in depth, it's respected as a worthwhile addition to regional fragrance collections, particularly appealing to those interested in traditional colognes and their cultural heritage.

Aventus is respected within the r/fragrance community as a high-performing, universally compliment-worthy fragrance with revolutionary fruity chypre characteristics. However, opinions are divided on whether its premium price and personal wearability justify the hype, with many experiencing rapid nose blindness despite strong projection, and batch inconsistency creating variable experiences across users.
