Dumont
Nitro Intense
“Absolu Aventus, sweeter and richer — a cognac-warm signature for fall evenings out.”

An Intense edition in Dumont's Nitro line, released in 2023 and following the 2020 Nitro Black: pineapple and black currant open over birch, settling on vanilla. Often compared to Creed's Absolu Aventus (2023). Fruity accords lead, with sweet, woody and amber facets and a light leather edge. Versatile across seasons and day-to-night.
The take
What works
- ●One of the closest budget takes on Aventus Absolu — dark pineapple and plum over a cognac-and-cinnamon warmth
- ●The plum-and-cognac twist gives it a richer, more distinctive character than most Aventus clones
- ●Big, sweet projection and long wear that outperforms the price
Trade-offs
- ●The added sweetness and plum push it a step away from a note-for-note match
- ●A slightly synthetic edge on the opening before it settles
