How it moves

The first breath is bergamot and mandarin, and it is loud about it. The middle belongs to green tea and blackcurrant. Last to go: musk, sandalwood and galbanum.

What wearers say

4.16 out of 5 across 11,000 ratings — well loved, and not quietly.

  • Prized for its fresh, fruity, ozonic blackcurrant-and-tea vibe; described as clean, breezy, and sparkling like mountain air.
  • Longevity is often called modest on the original, projecting softly and fading to skin, which many dupes actually outperform.
  • Considered a versatile spring/summer and office scent; the common criticism is that it is light, pricey, and easily outdone by clones.

Who made it

Olivier Creed composed it in 1995, for Creed in France. Creed's fresh blackcurrant-and-tea evocation of an alpine ski trip, and one of the '90s' defining freshness benchmarks.
