The quiet intensity of an afternoon spent in a wood-paneled study, where the scent of pine needles mingles with notes of clove and lavender.

The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1965 by James Henry Creed, Epicea is a fragrance that blends aromatic and woody accords with fresh and warm spices. The composition opens with bergamot and lavender, creating a crisp yet inviting atmosphere. Clove and pine add depth and warmth to the scent, resulting in a harmonious blend of freshness and spiciness. This fragrance stands as a proof of Creed's legacy of crafting elegant scents that are both lasting and sophisticated.
Given its moderate longevity and sillage, Epicea is best applied directly to pulse points for maximum impact. The fresh top notes will fade within an hour or two but the woody and spicy base notes will continue to evolve throughout the day.
