Zara aftershave that 'smells exactly the same' as Creed Aventus for £260 cheaper

We all have our favourite fragrances, but sometimes they'll cost you a pretty penny.

A staple for a lot of people these days is Creed Aventus, which launched back in 2010.

The fragrance is available for men and women, but many have found the product a bit too pricey. Lovers of Creed Aventus are now figuring out that a high street store is selling an aftershave that smells almost exactly the same.

The replica fragrance that is being praised is Zara's Vibrant Leather cologne which is available for a fraction of the price of Creed.

120ml of Vibrant Leather from Zara costs £19.99, compared to Creed Aventus that costs £285 for 100ml.

There are a number of videos across TikTok claiming that the fragrances are identical.

In one video, TikTok user @georgiabaigrie says: “Vibrant Leather for Her, £14.99, is a dupe to Creed Aventus for Her, £260.”

Others show the two fragrances side by side and claim they’re the same.

On Twitter, other shoppers claimed the same.

One person said: “Zara Vibrant Leather EDP, dupe Creed aventus. Your [sic] welcome”.

Another wrote: “Vibrant Leather fragrance from Zara is basically a dupe of creed it’s so dank”.

A third said: “Zara has a dupe of Creed called Vibrant leather!! Smells exactly the same and I think it’s only £20 for 120ml x”.
