Viking and Aventus compete for the spot as the best compliment getter for men. Maybe they are not the only ones in their catalog. But I think a quick Creed Viking vs Aventus comparison will guide anyone who wants to try these popular Maison Creed’s products, which are famous for their high-quality ingredients.
What about Viking?
Many enthusiasts waited for the launch of Viking. This happened seven years after that of Aventus, a fragrance whose success and popularity are unbelievable. We can assume that Olivier Creed wanted to win back the podium as the best creator in the family with a new perfume. The perfume plows the same furrow as Aventus.

Viking is a perfume you hardly can objectively review. It starts with a traditional barbershop vibe but differs considerably from Bois du Portugal, a previous Olivier’s creation. The mint note diverts attention from the complexity of the olfactory accord, which appears sumptuously simple. This perfume intoxicates and amazes. Many complain that it does not last long. It’s easy to find many conflicting opinions about Viking, but it’s popular because it polarizes who smells it.
