Been searching for that scent that I’ve associated with my grandfather wearing back in the late 70s, early 80’s...this is it. Totally nails the barbershop/masculine genre while still being modern...it successfully generates those memories

Just off initial impression Creed Viking is very similar to Eternity EDP, same scent family and would cover the same ground in my opinion. I have and love Aventus, and Green Irish Tweed. Solid fragrances Frome this house! Viking is just little too stuffy/mature for me at this point. Cheers man, great review!

I missed the giveaway, but my personal favorite Creed has to still be Aventus, with Viking a close 2nd. GREAT video as always, and I too LOVE Viking. I was kinda "meh" at first, but after several wearings I love how it evolves throughout the day/night. It's really complex and I enjoy scents with depth like this one. Absolutely worth it, IMHO. Thanks for the continued great work, Ash! Watching your vids is something I look forward to as part of my day.

When I got the sample set from Creed, I liked Aventus 1st but this one grew on me over Green Irish Tweed. Its more masculine. When I put it on my wife asked, "Are you wearing love potion #9 or something?" I was surprised she liked it since she is very picky on most fragrances and it has a barbershop scent vibe but more elegant. I had to go ahead and purchase the 3.3 bottle. 1 of my new favs.

I tested Viking during a VIP consult at the Mayfair boutique in London. It wasn't my cup of tea regardless the cost. I'm still selecting a favorite Creed. MI is the current favorite with SMW being unique enough to be a worthy signature scent. I love Aventus but does not work for me as a everyday scent because it projects too much. It's a scent best used in private. Please me in the drawing. The Arts Traveler likes to smell nice for the people in his orbit. Today the lady ahead of me at the Container Store was complimented on MY scent, Creed's Spice and Wood. I smelled fabulous and I am glad to know that I enhanced someone's day through my projection.

Yesterday tested Creed Viking, not sure if the clove or the whole combo with the peppers/spices in general, but I'm not very fond of it, not one I'd like to wear. Bois du Portugal also tested, too old-vibe-ish, not my cup of tea either. And Green Irish Tweed is nice but honestly just reminded me strongly of Cool Water, I wouldn't say worth the delta in price at all, imho. Also smelled Encre Noire by Lalique, really amazed how such a wonderful fragrance can be so inexpensive. Imho a nicer fragrance than all of the above

Picked up a sample of Viking about a month ago. Not impressed at first but decided to try it again yesterday. I walked by my wife who caught a whiff. Her reaction? “Wearing Sauvage again?” That caught me off guard so I put a spray of Sauvage on my hand to compare. I could definitely pick up the pepper in both which is what she picked up on also. After smelling the two together, she said “ Put the Sauvage to the back and I’ll spring for a bottle of Viking” even after I told her the cost. Agree, I wouldn’t compare to Aventus, more to Bois de Portugal and it doesn’t project long but I could smell it for quite a while. The difference in quality of the scents is astounding. I have over 3 oz left of Sauvage I’ll probably end up selling or giving to my son in law.
