Ranking My 14 CREED Fragrances From "Worst" to "Best".

[@golfbuddy1969]

I have had no issues with performance of my 5 Creeds that are all less than 3 years old. My 3 year old bottle of Aventus had garnered compliments after 10 hours. Silver Mountain Water is my favorite.

[@WSF176]

You have stellar taste.

[@Leonard_Washington76]

Silver Mountain Water is really good.

[@LABoutaBagDoe]

You like Silver mountain better than Aventus?? Which one do u get more compliments on ?

[@StuTheSoftwareAnalyst]

I hated Viking the first time I tried it. Thought it was overly dusty and dry. Fast forward a year and a revamped palate later, I have no idea what I was smelling. Walked by the Creed section in a Nordstrom yesterday and it just called to me. Tried it out and absolutely loved it. Picked up on the nuance of the warm spices mixed with the mint and soft edges of that shave cream type of vibe. Had to buy it. And I'm not even a big Creed guy. But when you're wrong, you're wrong. Happy to be convinced on that one.

Creed Virgin Island Water is a masterpiece

[@caseyplunkett6083]

I had literally just sprayed V.I.W water on as a way to uplift my mood a bit. It’s not even one of my favorite fragrances but it is absolutely one of the best scents that my nose has ever smelled.

[@zeeshanahmad4805]

​@caseyplunkett6083 100% agreed. I have never had a day yet when I put it on and didn't feel uplifted and those wafts oh those wafts.

[@caseyplunkett6083]

@@zeeshanahmad4805 I don’t know if you share a similar impression to mine but when it comes to Creed, yes their juice is overpriced, and yes many of their fragrances lack longevity, but the scent on many - likely most of their fragrances, are purely amazing. V.I.W, Bois Du Portugal, Royal Oud are easily some of the best scents (purely the smell) that I’ve ever experienced. Even with all the controversy I’d hold Aventus and the Absolu batch as the best smells my nose has experienced. I have spent thousands more on sampling fragrances than I have buying bottles simply chasing the experience of a scent that send chills down my neck, ones that affect the lymbic brain as Justin has referenced. As for V.I.W and tropical scents, have you compared it to Malibu Party in the Bay? While much cheaper and more synthetic it’s still a pretty enjoyable experience that obviously hits the pocket book less. LV’s City of Stars is a great Tropical option as well and will likely be my next bottle purchase. If you enjoy florals, and don’t mind something that leans a little femme (City of Stars likely leans a bit that way as well) Ylang Ylang Nosy Be is a great scent as well. If you didn’t mind reading my post I appreciate at wish you well. I look forward to hearing about the other tropical fragrances that you keep in rotation.

[@caseyplunkett6083]

@@zeeshanahmad4805 my bottle of VIW is a 2013 bottle. I’m a bit concerned about the top notes fading so I feel as though I should get a new bottle to layer with it. I’ll likely try to wait another year of Kering ownership. Blackwater put out water downed bs.

[@WeezyPipes]

I own Aventus, VIW, Original Vetiver, Royal Oud, Millesime Imperial, and Viking Cologne. I want to like GIT and Viking but they're too similar to Cool Water and Old Spice for me. Millesime Imperial is sort of between Erolfa and SMW so I feel like either of those would be redundant (though I do like them). Overall I expect to get 4-5 hours from Creeds, they're not workday fragrances. Creed uses a signature ambergris accord and a "house accord" I've seen described as smoked blackberry that gives everything a sparkly freshness. I think it's the best brand for freshies in terms of actual smells, the imitators all fall short.

[@johnrodonis4186]

I was hooked up by a NM REP with a bottle of Aventus at its initial release. And when I’d wear it out, I kid you not women were calling each other over to give me a sniff. I also kid you not when I say that just because a woman gets up close for a sniff of your neck does NOT mean you are taking her home. Just enjoy and appreciate the attention. Truth is, I don’t wear it any more. I already hit the jackpot when it was a novelty. That said, I really like your list. I live in Florida, so for me it’s… 1) Green Irish Tweed - This one has literally changed a mind or two for me. 2) Silver Mountain Water - I caused a ruckus with this one at the university I attended. 3) Original Santal (big on the compliments from young and old…er alike lol) 4) Virgin Island Water (I’m in Florida. Duh.) 5) Millésime Impérial (It just works for one and all.) At end, allow me to lament the vaulting of Royal English Leather, Acier Aluminium and Baie de Genièvre. I miss them all, especially REL. Man, I felt like a Duke wearing that concoction. Keep the vids coming. They are 5-Star.

When I first bought a bottle of Aventus back in 2011, I remember it was a monster, as well as a fantastic fragrance. Now it doesn’t even compare. The other offerings that I’ve bought did exactly what they were supposed to do and continue to do so. Like original vetiver, fresh light clean. Silver mountain water the same. Royal water will hit hard if you do more than 4 or 5. That used to be my Friday scent. I have since left the Aventus train and I’ve remained on the other offerings.

Original Santal is the first full-bottle from the Creed house that I've purchased; I absolutely love it, and, no joke, every time I go to the cabinet to pick a fragrance for the day, I have to fight myself to choose something else XD Also, I love Silver Mountain Water, but, sadly, find it fades a bit too quickly for my taste, and the price tag. Gorgeous scent, though. Honestly, as far as tea scents go, I think Ormande Jayne's Montabaco Intensivo may be a better option to try from that DNA; it's not really more affordable, and lacks that metallic twinge (if that's important to you), but I found the performance to be much better than SMW, and maybe more interesting? I have to yet to give Royal Oud a full-trial wearing, and after watching this, I'm definitely closer to making that happen. Thank you for another fantastic video, Justin!

I do 4-6

Honestly I get what he’s saying. I have the same experience with Himalaya. At some point it starts to smell a little weird and a bit, just a bit, nauseating. These aren’t the only two fragrances that this can happen with either so this phenomenon is not exclusive to Creed. If I hope that a fragrance will project but I’m worried that it can be a bit much I’ll usually just spray most of it on my pants or lower limbs if I’m in shorts.

Love royal oud just got me a bottle of it. I got green irish tweed on the way. I don't think it smells like Cool Water. I still think aventus is still dam good

[@reiyuu9.85]

I’m a woman, though i love men’s perfume. I love adventus but from your vid it’s rank is top 13. :( Though it got me more curious now😅

[@stayfreshproductions]

If you keep watching, you’ll see that it returns at a higher rank!

Newer batches of Aventus with the metal cap actually last

[@chrisbrietzman7413]

The newer batches of Royal Oud are honestly different to me. The new batches smell sweeter and not as woody and peppery. Not as heavy either more light, and im not a fan of

Creed is my favorite niche house overall. My favorite is Silver Mountain water. My wife calls it sex in a bottle. Her favorite fragrance ever. And out of almost 200 fragrances, I have decants of or full bottles. This's the only one she says I need. My second would be a tie between Erolfa and Mellisime Imprerial (both don't last more than 1-2 hours on me). Aventus isn't one of my favorites. But the Aventus DNA is my most complimented. Whether the original or a clone. So if feel like getting attention, I wear that DNA.

Bois de Portugal, can't believe it didn't make your list. Legend has it, that it was Frank Sinatra's scent. Now I don't know if that matters to you or not, hell, I don't even know if it matters to me. BUT back in the day, he and his Rat Pack was considered the epitome of cool. But what I do know is that if I had a choice between GIT, MI, and BDP. It would be BDP. It is soooo SEXY. GIT and even MI are more versatile as it is definitely a cold weather fragrance. I mean bite in the air fragrance. I can't wait to buy for my boyfriend and just bury my face in his chest all winter (he wasn't my bf last winter that's the only reason he doesn't have already). So I don't know if I have made a strong enough case for BDP but trust me, BDP is that good good. Oh, for Father's Day he is getting PDM Perseus and M.I. so you see how my nose leans...I love cedar, sandalwood, oud is my favorite of all things woody!

[@stayfreshproductions]

Haha thanks for sharing! I really enjoy BDP, and I’ve been intrigued to get it for years now. Just haven’t pulled the trigger.
