James Henry Creed First Generation
James Henry Creed founded the House of Creed in 1760 on Conduit Street in London as a tailoring house serving British royalty and aristocracy, the first generation of the family perfumery. His son Henry expanded the business to Paris, becoming the first English tailor to open there, and was granted a Royal Warrant in 1885; the house later transitioned from tailoring into perfumery across seven generations.
