Description
Bright citrus, sea salt and soft musk in a polished aquatic that has been a Creed signature since 1995.
Created by Olivier Creed and launched in 1995, Millésime Impérial is one of the house's older classics and a fresh, sunlit take on the aquatic. It opens with bergamot and blackcurrant, lifted by violet leaves, then a salty marine accord and orris carry it into a clean, airy heart. The drydown is soft musk with cedarwood and sandalwood underneath. Some wearers pick out the iris and woods, others mostly smell citrus, salt and musk, but either way it stays light, refined and easy to wear.
🍊 Top: Bergamot · Blackcurrant · Violet Leaves
🌸 Heart: Orris · Salty Marine Accord
🪵 Base: Cedarwood · Musk · Sandalwood
Why you'll love it:
- ✅ A softer, more refined aquatic than most, with citrus, sea salt and musk blended smoothly
- ✅ A long-standing Creed favourite, known for its luxurious bottle and polished blending
- ✅ Fresh and clean with noticeable sillage while it lasts, and wearers report roughly four to eight hours depending on skin
- ✅ Unisex and easy to wear, from the office to holidays and warm days out
- ✅ Best in spring and summer, though it can carry into early autumn when it is still mild
Why sample first:
- 💸 A full 100ml bottle has a recommended retail price of around £310, so it pays to be sure
- 🔬 Wearers disagree on staying power, with some getting most of a day and others closer to four hours, so wearing it for a full day on your own skin matters. A decant is the same juice as the bottle, so what you smell is what you would get
- 📦 Available in 1ml, 2ml, 5ml, 10ml & 30ml
Our promise:
- 💯 100% authentic, decanted from a genuine retail bottle into spray vials
- 🚀 Fast UK dispatch
- ❤️ Try a Creed classic for yourself, from just £3.99
Does Millesime Imperial last long enough to justify the price? It is a light, fresh scent, so it does not behave like a heavy evening fragrance, and some wearers find it fades after a few hours. Others get a good full day. The only way to know is to wear it, which is exactly what a sample is for, and a 5ml or 10ml lets you test it across several days and weather before committing.
