Is Armaf Club de Nuit Milestone a dupe of Creed Millesime Imperial?

Many fragrance fans see it that way. Armaf Club de Nuit Milestone is recognizably inspired by Creed Millesime Imperial and is regarded as an affordable alternative to the expensive original. Anyone who likes the marine, lightly aromatic character of Millesime Imperial will find a fragrance here that heads in the same direction — without being a like-for-like recreation.

In the US, Armaf is best known for the Club de Nuit line, and bottles are most readily found on Amazon.com, largely through third-party storefronts.

Which notes and accords do the two fragrances share?

The community most frequently names these common elements:

  • musk in the base
  • a marine accord
  • an aromatic accord

This shared foundation explains why both leave the same fresh, maritime overall impression.

How do the two compare on the nose?

Creed Millesime Imperial leads with sea salt and fruity notes in the top, sicilian lemon, bergamot, iris and mandarin orange in the heart, and sea notes, musk and woody notes in the base. Its typical accords are marine, citrus, salty, fruity and aromatic.

Armaf Club de Nuit Milestone opens with sea notes, red fruits and bergamot, shows violet, white woods and sandalwood in the heart, and stands on a base of musk, ambroxan and vetiver. The accords: marine, aromatic, woody, powdery and musky.

Both therefore evoke the same maritime-aromatic world but go their own ways in the individual notes.
