Reimagining a Timeless Perfumery Classic
For centuries, Vetiver has been a celebrated cornerstone in the world of fine fragrance, revered for the deep, earthy, and smoky aroma derived from the plant's roots. It evokes a sense of grounded sophistication and enduring elegance. Yet, the legendary House of Creed, in its relentless pursuit of olfactory innovation, has masterfully redefined this classic note with Original Vetiver.
The Creed Difference: A Fresh, Green Vetiver Fragrance
Breaking from tradition, Original Vetiver captures the essence of the entire plant. By infusing the vibrant, dew-kissed leaves along with the rich roots, Creed achieves a scent that is uniquely crisp, clean, and invigorating. This modern interpretation, launched in 2004 by the visionary father-and-son duo Olivier and Erwin Creed, creates a unisex fragrance that is both exhilaratingly fresh and profoundly sensual. It’s a scent that feels both timeless and distinctly contemporary.
