I've yet to smell a Creed that I would spend money on for a full bottle. Aventus was ok but I wouldn't wear it that much to be honest.
I currently own 13 full bottles of Creed and one large decant (Spice & Woods)
They are quite the popular niche house, and what I like about them is that they have so many easy to like fragrances, that I just can't seem to get tired of.
There is the all time classic Green Irish Tweed, which just smells so green and fresh. Then you have Millesime Imperial, a gentle very well blended summer fragrance, that just smells so regal and clascci to me nose. Virgin island Water is perhaps arguably among the best real summer, beach, trophical fragrances ever made. Aventus is just Aventus - a great fragrance, overhyped yes, but for a good reason. It so well blended, smells like an upperclass designer fragrance.
Creed really just smell like very well blended easy to like designer fragrances, and that's waht I enjoy about them.
The first oud fragrances they make is Royal Oud, which really does not smell oudy at all, more classy fresh, woody - but not oudy. Creed fans would not appreciate real agarwood oud, is my thoughts. The you have Royal mayfair, which is a fresh classy rose type scent.
Silver Mountain Water is again an easy to appreciate fresh yet metallic and clean smelling fragrance. I love it. Always enjot, when ever I get to wear it.
Spice & woods is just a classy upscale fragrance, very expensive, yet so well blended.
Erolfa is perhaps the best made aquatic fragrance I have ever smelled.
I rotate my fragrances in my collection daily, so I never get tired of a fragrance, unless it's really bland or poorly made.
This reminds me, that I have not worn any of my 13 Creeds in 3-4 months time, not since November 2015
But I have a very good scent memory, so all Creed scents are in the back of my mind.
But I can highly recommend, that you sample some of the Creeds again, Brian. They are popular for good reason....
