The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011 by Olivier Creed to commemorate the house's founding in 1760, 250 Years Anniversary is a Chypre Floral fragrance that marries classic accords with contemporary elegance. The composition opens with bright citrus notes of grapefruit and bergamot, which give way to a heart of narcissus and iris. The base notes of musk and amber create a warm, powdery finish that grounds the freshness above. This scent is a perfect embodiment of Creed's heritage, blending lastingness with a modern twist.
One or two sprays on pulse points is enough to capture the essence of this fragrance. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, so it’s best to apply it in the morning for a full day's wear. It pairs well with light layers, making it ideal for daytime activities.
