Launched in 2023, Carmina by Creed is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that embodies the elegant restraint and refined complexity for which the house has been celebrated since 1760. At its heart is a vibrant May Rose, supported by notes of black cherry and saffron, creating an unexpected contrast between sweetness and spice. The composition evolves into a warm, powdery base of cashmere wood, musk, ambroxan, myrrh, and frankincense, grounding the fragrance with a luxurious depth.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays to pulse points — the black cherry and saffron notes are bright but fleeting. The rich base will develop over time, so allow it to settle into your skin for at least an hour before heading out.
