I am not the type of guy that comments on videos. I believe it takes so much for a video to inspire me and comment. But Gosh! Aaron is such a knowledgeable and compelling perfumer. This is what I am expecting when I want to look at a fragrance review. I am tired of the typical "10 sexiest fragrances for men". Aaron puts quality as a priority instead of quantity, and as a viewer I do appreciate that. Aaron, keep up the fantastic work. As a side note, I am subscribed to multiple channels, but yours is the first one that I turned notifications on. I just do not want to miss any video. Many blessings, Aaron. Next is to enter into your fragrance collection. I am really excited about that.

Something that stands out for me in most Creed's fragrances is their typical silky-smooth white musk in the base sometimes accompanied by ambergris or mellow creamy sandalwood like in SMW. This base is what always stands out when you compare their frags to clones and it screams quality.

Creed does have boutiques, to my knowledge there is one in New York and Sydney. The Sydney boutique has some of the most expensive prices in the world. Like art , the canvas/board, frame , oil paint is much cheaper than the price. You pay for the composition and exclusivity. The only problem with that is good quality clones will pop up. In the heat sometimes simple compositions work the best. I don’t think this is at all linear. I love the opening but when the top notes leave I’m left with something that reminds me of soaps from my grandmothers’s cupboards.

@Xena3952 жыл бұрын
This salesman at Bloomingdales was trying to persuade me, by telling me how creed perfumes have not been reformulated. The credibility of the company of their products are going downhill, with sales rep to charm and lie to customers. He thought I was going to open my wallet and dropped money, because he said I was getting $40 off. Then I said, I’ll have a sample if you don’t mind. In the past I’ve gotten caught up in the excitement of a perfume, after a few months I realize I don’t care for it. Now I’m stuck with a few bottles collecting dust in my closet. These sales associates will look at you like a peasant who can’t afford a $300 perfume, because you’re leaving the store without buying anything. I have the right to go to a store to see products, ask for samples to test them out.

SMW is the first Creed fragrance that I fell in love with. This is an amazing smell of ice, berries and white freshness. But, unfortunately, almost all the perfumes from the Creed house are not persistent and do not have a sillage. they sound like cologne on my hot skin for 2 hours and then they just die. I think you cannot do this with fragrances, you cannot change them and ask for that kind of money for bottles. the flavors are awesome but the projection is awful. business and art are incompatible unfortunately

But in my humble opinion it was definitely a good investment for me. It lasts on my skin a good 7 hours and lasts on my clothes even longer and this fragrance has a uniqueness that I appreciate because no one else that I know, in my little corner of the world, has this scent.

The only reason I have one 100ml bottle of Creed fragrance and not ten, is that price. The only reason I bought it (GIT) is because it was on offer a few months back (£180 instead of £245). They are not £230 - £250 100ml scents. They should be in the £130 to £180 range, IMO, especially the later formulations.

black currants in food form can even come off smokey. Amazing when combined with chocolate. So TART

I love this fragrance for the summer . I have bottles that cost me £75 for 75 ml . Creed is so expensive now and some have changed witch is a shame . Another greet review Aaron

Thats the ideal price for this fragrance. there isn't anything crazy in it to cost so much I have heard that they have reformulated so its not what it was. Which is a shame

Lovely scent but as with a lot of recent Creed scents, its longevity is poor, like maybe just a couple of hours which (for me) makes it a non-starter for the price. Have a bottle but wouldn’t buy again

Very Nice Aaron....Love that Creed only thing i do not like is the price............Problem is Aaron if you go to there web sight its where its the most expensive! So i do not no if its the department stores that sells it at such a high price because i think Creed its self sells it for a high price....You must be looking at the 50ml for 185 pounds because at discounters for the 100ml its 271 dollars

After trying to original you have to try Armaf Sillage! Other than a noticeably more abrasive opening I would say the dry down is absolutely identical to SMW

Great video! You should review something from house Merchant of Venice. There are not so many reviews of it. They have really lovely perfumes. Personally I think you would love Arabesque... plum cinammon Cheers from Croatia

Beautiful review as always, Aaron. Will you please review Kalan by Parfums De Marly sometime? I think you might like it. I’d be happy to send you a sample.

Does the melon in this have any Polo Blue in it? I find it really unappealing. Lovely as always ATH.
