There is quite a collection of colognes and perfumes from the House of Creed and a Creed cologne review is difficult to do on all 200 or so fragrances. Therefore, just a few of the best selling fragrances will be discussed, specifically Green Irish Tweed, Imperial, Tabarome, and Silver Mountain Water. All Creed fragrances have a sophisticated air suitable for gentlemen of every age. Women also love that refined scent of House of Creed colognes.
Olivier Creed is the Master Perfumer at Creed at this time. They use natural substances to make their fragrances that come worldwide and the pains are taken to keep the flavor of the natural scent. There are no synthetic fragrances used in Creed Colognes, which is how they have managed to produce such superior quality fragrances. Every ingredient is mixed and processed by hand in order to keep the organic scent.
The single best selling fragrance by Creed is Green Irish Tweed. This is perfect for any sophisticated gentleman that wants to give off a memorable ambiance. It came out in 1985 and has never stopped going strong. The ingredients include a base of sandalwood and ambergris with a middle layer of violet leaves and topping of verbena and lemon. There are those that feel this fragrance is very potent so only a little bit is needed to help a man smell wonderful all day long. Women love the scent of Green Irish Tweed cologne and it brings to mind a sophisticated, well-versed and intelligent man that knows where he is going and takes into account where he has been.
Creed Imperial Millesime, long considered a gold standard among perfumers, is a decidedly citrusy fragrance, scented by bergamot, green mandarin and lemon with a top note of iris. It starts citrus scented but then starts to change as it is worn and completes its dry down. Millesime Imperial is a fragrance that honored the 140th anniversary of Creed and is designed for both men and women to wear and enjoy.
Tabarome Millesime has the typical masculine fragrances of Patchouli, vertiver, and sandalwood and is mixed with some green tea and citrus scents. Originally created for a British statesman, this cologne gets its name from its slight scent of tobacco leaf, and is perfect for any man that wants to give the air of sitting in pubs and smoking a cigar type masculinity. For some, the cologne can take a little time to get used to, but once you’ve tried it, you will be going back for more.
Silver Mountain Water is reminiscent of the scent of snow high in the Alps with bergamot, mandarin, musk and black currant. It smells fresh and cool and is the Olivier Creed’s favorite cologne of all his creations. This is a great light scent that is perfect for men and women alike.
Many celebrities such as Robert Redford, George Clooney and Richard Gere wear the fragrances of the House of Creed. The family owned company has been around since 1760 started by James Henry Creed in London and then moved to Paris. Napoleon the III was a Creed customer as were other men of royal houses.
It is said that women love the scent of most Creed colognes. I can’t verify this statement, but it has been said that the scent draws them like bees to honey. The strong scent of these colognes will settle down after wearing them a few days so that the body chemistry can become used to the fragrances and the gentleman can decide just how much to apply. It should be noted that the cologne is of good quality and although the wearer may think the scent to be a bit over powering those around him will not feel that way.
Creed also produces several fragrances for woman and a few for both women and men. A man that wants to exude elegance and finesse should choose any of the colognes made by Creed. Creed colognes are relatively affordable and found in most department stores or online. Expect to pay around USD $50 to $250 depending on the cologne and the size of the bottle.
