Original Vetiver 2024

Creed Week Day 2: This one is very underrated. I'm a big fan of vetiver scents. If I would create a fresh daily summertime fragrance, it would pose a lot of similarities to this one. The scent is herbal-aromatic with a slight citrusy top accord, aswell as woody and earthy undertones that become more prominent over time. It's fresh, it's clean, it's timeless. Completely unisex too. I consider this the polar opposite to "Milesime Imperial" along the axis of vacation scents. Instead of fruity saltiness of the beach found in MI, this is the luxury hotel with a wide range of spa procedures. This scent's performance is dragging it down. It has a rather short sillage unless you spray a lot (I only have 1ml of this left, so I am not wasting it on a full heavy spray routine), and the longevity could be better (but by far not the worst). At this price range, more can be expected in that regard. It makes up for it with high quality ingredients and great blending, which is typical for Creed. As with most expensive scents, it is not entirely blind buy safe. I like it quite a bit. 8.5/10

Bright uplifting lemon tea and ginger in the nicest most therapeutic way possible. Have had this for a few months now and love wearing it as a versatile daily driver in warmer weather. That said this could probably be worn anywhere, any time, any occasion and you will smell fresh and clean. This scent makes me feel invigorated and is one of my happy scents. Lasts about 6 hours if I spray on clothes and skin but could be nose blindness. Still pretty good for a fresh natural smelling scent. 9/10

I don't understand why the rating for this version is so much lower. I bought a bottle of the new Original Vetiver because I only had about 20 ml left of the old version. Although some of the ingredients listed in the notes are different (which might be considered as a cost-cutting measure), my nose isn't that professional or trained. To me, this version smells about 95% identical to the old one. The new version is just slightly greener, with a bit more of a fresh grassy character.

I can't get this one out of my mind. This is a true green fragrance. Beautiful green notes, ginger, vetiver and the musk bringing it home. Phenomenal job by Creed. This very well maybe my first Creed fragrance I buy in a full bottle. I have a decant of Aventus that was gifted to me, but this might very well be the one I go full bottle with. 10/10. I'm dressing up when I'm putting this on. This is so fresh and classy man, what a masterpiece

don't be mislead by the name, i disliked earthy vetiver smell, but this is a fresh linen with a touch of sweetness and not in a hot iron dry linen kind of way like dior homme sport or sedley, i would put this in the same vibe as percival and imagination kind of fresh, 25s to late 30s guy go to frag
