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.
You have stellar taste.
Silver Mountain Water is really good.
You like Silver mountain better than Aventus?? Which one do u get more compliments on ?
Creed Virgin Island Water is a masterpiece
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.
@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.
@@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.
@@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.
@@caseyplunkett6083 yeah I've heard many complain about the lack of strength in the new formulation. Surprisingly I've got a 2020 batch i think and it easily lasts 6 hours on me with medium projection afterwards. It's a hit and miss for the batches i reckon.
ROYAL OUD IS ONE OF THE GOD TIER PERFUMES I HAVE EVER TIRED
I have tried hundreds of perfumes and NONE have made me feel the same way royal oud does and has. I'm honestly terrified of ever growing bored of it.
Haven’t tried too many creeds but from the ones I’ve tried, Silver mountain water is easily my favourite
Silver Mountain Water gets me more random compliments from women in public. When I first got it I couldn’t get my wife away from me. Original Santal is one I wear for me.
My top 5 Creeds are:
1. Viking
2. Original Vetiver
3. Erolfa
4. Spice & Wood
5. Original Santal
Aventus wont even make into my top-10 Creeds, but its still nice. When it comes to freshies, Creed are the best niche house for me, ima real fanboy.
Love original santal. It deserves more love agreed completely. Sophistication.
Fall/Winter date night masterpiece. Mont Blanc Individual is a decent play on it for cheap.
@@jasonrichardson0369 Mont Blanc individuel is the original and Original Santal is the clone.
Great list could watch your Creed content all day, I remember when your first review came out about Viking Cologne glad you came around to it
My favorite from the house of Creed is Bois du Portugal - I'm 45, so I guess I gravitate towards Old School. Then Royal Water, Royal Oud VIW and Spice & Wood
very nicely explained Royal Oud! that´s what i needed!
Great video Justin! I'm super late to the party on Original Vetiver. Knew about it for years but never tried it until last weekend. Sprayed it on skin at Bloomingdales one day and wore it around the rest of the day and found it so amazing that I ordered a bottle a few days ago.
Great list! Creed is one of, if not my favorite house! Right before you got to Aventus 2010 I literally had a similar experience with it. I bought it from Saks, got home, opened and sprayed it and…nothing. It was like water. So I said this must have to age or something and sure enough it has gotten close to the strength of my much older batch. I love Spice and Wood too. I don’t own a bottle of Jardin d’Amalfi yet but may order a decant for the summer. Lovely fragrance for the summer
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm a big fan of the Creed house and my favorite fragrance from the brand is Creed Aventus and have a blessed day
These videos are so helpful. I was so happy that Viking made the list love that sent, but doesn’t always get talked about
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, I am glad it was the algorithm recommended for me. I would have swapped my favorite spice and wood for one of your top three that wasn’t Royal Oud.
Glad to hear you came around to Viking Cologne, one of my favorites from Creed. Surprised Spice and Wood is not on this list, another of my favorites, especially since you have Royal Out at #1.
Creed is fantastic! I think you nailed number 1 and 2. In addition, Neroli Sauvage is perfect for hot weather. Its simplicity highlights the quality ingredients beautifully
AGREED! Royal Oud, number one!
Great work, Justin!
Our top three remain the same!
GIT as my #4. ☺️👍
Thanks William!
What I miss about the aventus from 2016,2017 is the pineapple 😭😭😭 . That thing when people smelled it was like crack
Bro people would follow you around in a trance for real
@@eii8794 i remember last year in San genaro here in nyc someone had it . I knew what it was right away …
You know J is doing well financially if he doesn’t sell of a 2016 bottle of Aventus that he no longer even likes all that much.
I love Royal Water and Green Irish Tweed. One of the main reasons I got into Fragrances was Creed Aventus. I never had a bottle but got a sample when I first started, I hate to say I don't like it anymore. Good job as usual Justin. Stay safe brother. SOTD XERJOFF RENAISSANCE.
Great review . i would add spice and wood somewhere in the last three spots
These videos are great.
I also like your lamp.
Thank you!
Got Aventus, Green irish tweed and viking. All of them lasted on me the whole day. Recently got Virgin island water and it also last the whole day on me. The thing is, creed fragrances dont have strong projection. But the longevity is very good.
I've owned Aventus and Santal, loved them both. Next is Royal Oud. It's my favorite.
Awesome review @stayfreshproductions. This was very helpful. If you had to stack rank your top three unique fresh and/or clean Creed scents out of this list that are must buy, what would they be? Thanks for your feedback.
Thank you! I’ll look into that!
The one and only (...I have 😄): green irish tweed. Yeah, I should wear it tomorrow again😉
Great list bro! I was hoping you would have Erolfa on this, but you had Miliesime imperial and both of those scents smell fairly close to each other. I need to get my nose on that Royal Oud, I hear too many good things about it. I might just blind buy it for the fall lol. My fav creed as of now is Greed Irish Tweed, but it changes lol.
Just ended up just blind buying Royal Oud lol.
Aventus colonge is a top 5 fragrance for life for me. And erolfa is a top 10 summer for me. Surprised to see those left out but original santal in there.
EROLFA is a 💎and not really talked about. So that means it’s worn even less. And that’s fine by me! 🙌
Aventus cologne has become one of my favorites it’s a little bit darker than the original aventus but perfect scent for dressing up with
I feel exactly the opposite! This is a lighter version than the OG. More summer friendly.
JC,
With your love of fougère’s, I implore you to try BOIS DU PORTUGAL!
I just purchased samples of Millesime Imperial, Aventus Cologne, Original Vetiver and Royal Oud and tested them all. . . honestly, out of all of them, I would have to say I enjoyed Aventus Cologne and Millesime Imperial the most. I'm on the fence with Original Vetiver, just need to test it more.
Great vid Justin, keep it up! 👏🏽
Imperial is the GOAT
My favorite Creed is Bois Du Portugal.
This is hardly my most used fragrance but I appreciate it to the greatest degree out of the Creeds that I own and have experienced.
Thank you kind sir for not having a misleading title. Vs "I brought every Creed Fragrance so you don't have to".
😆 no problem!
Great content, Justin. My top 5
1. Silver Mountain Water
2. Green Irish Tweed
3. Erolfa
4. Millesime Imperiale
5. Aventus (2013)
I have smelt Royal Oud and it’s just too ‘earthy’ for me. Viking i don’;t like but my Dad loves it. Also, a shoutout for Himalaya, which would have been number 6.
Nice!
My 2yr old bottle of SMW is my favorite. Great performance
Already knew Royal Oud was #1. Same for me. The others are ranked differently by me but i own most of the ones in this list.
ordered ten samples. Just did it through another outfit that offers 1ml. My sample orders are 30-40 products so I'm spending $300+ already. Thanks for the video. I picked up Original Vetiver a few days ago. Love it, but wish it was longer than 4 hours.
I swear you brain is connected to mine, a few weeks ago I was looking to see if I wanted a xerjoff fragrance and two days later you put up your video. The other day I was looking into creed and what is recommended? This one.
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!
Thanks for watching! I really enjoy Montabaco Intensivo.
Silver mountain water & virgin island water are my favorites out of the 7 bottles I own
Spice and Wood is my most worn and favorite Creed fragrance.
That's it. ✌🏾
Viking and Silver mountain is amazing❤ Don't forget Pure White, but if you don't have it, i highly recommend it you won't be disappointed in any way.
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.
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.
I love Creed. Just wished it lasted longer. I’m selling or have sold most! The ones I am keeping are Green Irish Tweed, Bois Du Portugal, Aventus Cologne and Jardin D’Amalfi.
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.
I love Viking Cologne, love how it's not that similar to the original. One of the best Creeds IMHO.
The same happened with my bottle of anniversary aventus, it's really strong now and smells amazing. Royal water, original vetiver and Viking cologne are some of my most worn aftershaves this time of year. I'll never understand the hype from Silver mountain water and royal oud, I've tried them several times and they absolutely stink 😅
Have you ever tried Royal Mayfair? I have a feeling that it might be your jam !
Royal Mayfair is very good.
@@megasoid I Love it too, it is by far my favorite Creed ! Very refreshing and original scent ! And long lasting ! Sadly its discountinued now
Been years, need to revisit it
I’ve owned ‘em all, but the only three I have in my collection now are Erolfa, Royal Mayfair and my most favourite Pure White (Original) Cologne - it can’t beaten for spring/summer in my book.
Pure White Cologne is amazing and pretty rare to see someone owning. I love the whole line. Also have Spice & Wood and Sublime Vanille, they all are great.
Erolfa is the one
Royal oud is fire got my first bottle !!
I Bought Two!
Interesting, I was surprised not to see Bois Du Portugal or Erolfa
Aventus Cologne is my go-to daily wear office scent. Fresher and lighter than Aventus and I never get self conscious about too much projection in a small meeting room. But my husband loves Aventus and I love it on him.
It’s so good!
I would do a light spray of Aventus and then layer it with Santal. Great new scent.
DecantX is legit.
Bought a 10ml decant of Love in White for my lady and it had leaked in transit. I asked for 3 ml’s which I’d estimated had leaked but they went ahead and sent me a new 10ml decant.
They tape their decants so leakage is extremely rare but I guess that it’s inevitable at some point cause I purchase once a month at least.
I tried aventus and performance was so bad I didnt get it. But the cologne is phenomenal for summer and girls love it.
I have 3 bottles of millesime imperial from 2007(comes with black sprayer) and I can tell you this staff is crazy good and powerful I could smell it for 2 days on my skin it's very expensive now, I have seen it online with $947 but luckily I have 2 sealed bottles and one am using . The new patches with the golden bottle is not really as 50% good.
could you do LV next?
Justin, i fell down the rabbithole of looking for vintage/vaulted Creed…found a few amazing scents….Royal Scottish Lavender, Santal Imperial, and my favorite Cypres Musc! Let me know if i can end you a sample or 2! 👍
I’m glad you found some good ones! Those vintage ones are special.
Would be interesting to see creed make a warm ambery and sweeter scent, all of their offerings so far are freshies
I don’t mess with creed too much controversy. Although I do enjoy many profiles they’ve created. I have many Indy style inspired versions. One day I’ll have to get a sample set. But for now doesn’t really interest me 🤷♂️ . Great video I enjoyed 👍
Your number 14 is my number 1 for me and my 18 year old son, to the extent that I bought him one to keep him away from my bottle. Millesime imperial is the signature perfume for the late Emir of Kuwait.
6:28 how many sprays would you recommend for silver mountain water? I don’t want to be smelling weird 😂
6-10 sprays
@@mmz1664 I sense sarcasm
@@TxmmyBeats nah to be honest i use 6-10 sprays on summer fragrances becuse they tend to not last so long and i just gaine compliments from it
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.
I’ve just watched $7000 dollars (AUD) of Creed
That’s 14 x 500 per bottle here
I’ll stick with soap for a bit longer 😂
I wish my Creed scents performed for longer because they do smell great. I work primarily in the conifer dominated forests and i really like the way Green Irish Tweed reflects that in my opinion but it just doesn't last very long. Or perhaps I'm just too used to the smell of it. I don't know.
My favourite Creed will probably always be Spice and Wood. Crazy price, but to me a 10/10!
that mj cameo was fire lmaoooo
I got a sample of original Santal it’s a great scent
First to see the video!
I love your videos sir, my sotd is virgin island water 😎
Thank you!
Man, might be my bad memory, but I remember you had and really liked Aventus Cologne.
Am I tripping or did you move it out of your collection?
I’ve never owned it. But I do really enjoy it
I was afraid to continue watching this video , thought I’d get hit with a stray just for watching !!! Bro woke up and chose violence by kicking off the bottom of the list with Aventus, MI & SMW 😂😂
I have 8 Creed. New/recent batches. Never had a problem with performance on any of them. 🤷♂️ All I hear about SMW, is how weak it is. I wore it the other day, & could still smell it later that night. GIT, BDP, Royal Oud, are freaking amazing!!! Aventus is King!! Original Vetiver is so good, & Original Santal is not your normal Creed, but is a definite must have. Viking has to be 1 of the best barbershop scents in the game. I seem to get that shaving cream scent with it. Gotta get Spice & Wood, Milliseme added to the collection.
Awesome!
What game last on your is number one for me 😊
You need to try Virgin Island Water!! Might be Creed's best!!
I love the opening, but I don’t love the dry down!
Have you tried Bois Du Portugal or Virgin Island Water???
Yes. I like the opening to VIW but I don’t love the dry down. BDP is great, just don’t have it.
What about Virgins Island Water?
Oud Touch did the same thing to me. First sprays....(WTF)..... about a year later.....(OH My)..Niiice,lol.
Sad about your vintage Aventus going flat. Something to keep in mind for anyone out there like me who stresses over using their discontinued/vintage blends. I find myself trying to save the juice because I'll never find it again. I've bought more recent batches and used them BEFORE the OG juice that I enjoy more. This isn't the way we should be thinking. We should use that old juice. Life is short, and you bought it for a reason. Use it up... enjoy it! It won't last forever!
Yes! Use it while you can!
1. Original Vetiver
2. Virgin Island Water
3. Royal Water
4. Green Irish Tweed
5. Aventus
Erolfa is my favorite.
Justin how do you know the year of the batch ?
There is usually a code printed on the bottom of the back of the bottle, or on the very bottom of the bottle. You can look that code up in online databases like check fresh to figure out the exact time of its manufacture.
But with Creeds, the code is usually a 2-digit number followed by a few more digits. Those first two digits usually correspond to the year. For example, 16E01 would be a 2016 batch.
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.
Thanks.
possibly my favorite series so far
The only Creed fragrances I've smelled are Aventus, Green Irish Tweed, Silver Mountain Water, Bois du Portugal, Himalaya, Original Santal and Virgin Island Water. I really liked Original Santal and only liked Aventus. I currently own some 90ml of Aventus in two bottles. I'm not going to buy another Creed due to shameless price tag.
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
Newer batches of Aventus with the metal cap actually last
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!
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.
I splurged on Aventus back in 2017 and was surprised by the cheap plastic cap that rattled around when clicked in place. $375 and cheap presentation= unacceptable. GIT wasnt as bad but dang, Creed.
Silver mountain water at 11 is crazzzy 😂😂
Royal OUD winter GEM... PREMIER FORMAL WEAR FRAGRANCE
My two best are Europa and virgin Island water I keep buying them two over and over aaaaaand over 😢
😁👌🏾
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😅
If you keep watching, you’ll see that it returns at a higher rank!
Originally it's 'Royal', 'Virgin Island' and 'Silver Mountain', but after reformulations (i.e. watering down) they added 'Water' to their names in order to adapt them to their new performance. 🤷
(Not true of course. 😉)
Tobacco Oud or Royal Oud?
Royal Oud for me
😍❤🔥
While watching the disclaimer, I hope you have og vetiver
Say that again my friend, I am at the back and I am still not hearing you" I don't own every Creed fragrance!" 😂😂😂😂
😆
