So here is a topic I have been thinking about as of late. Is it really worth it to spend the extra money and get a commercial aftershave or fragrance? Or should we just buy artisan? Here is my thought process.
Commercial:
Okay so full disclosure I about a month ago decided to use some of my annual bonus and purchased a bottle of Creed Aventus and a bottle of Creed Green Irish Tweed. Well it has been lost in transit, coming from Europe. I am assuming that a customs agent is smelling pretty good right about now. Well I opted to just receive a full refund. Which was finally processed yesterday. Now I was left to I try and order again from someone in the states? Or do I just stick with my WSP version of GIT and my Fine version of Aventus... Especially now that Fine sells Fragrances.
I have to be honest I don't think the premium is worth it any longer. What say you?
Commercial:
- The original
- The true scent
- Usually consistent across batches
- Going to pay a premium
- Shipping can be slow
- Unique
- Price lower
- Dealing with the artisan usually
- Can have more skin conditioning properties
- Longevity better (in my experience)
