Creed
Himalaya EDP
“Clean air at altitude — minerally, bright, unhurried.”
Olivier Creed's 2002 launch — one of Creed's most office-friendly masculines, sat alongside Silver Mountain Water and Green Irish Tweed in the brand's mainstream-friendly tier. A clean citrus-woody-musky masculine with Calabrian bergamot, grapefruit, and Sicilian lemon at the top, sandalwood in the heart, and a musk-ambergris-cedar base. Performs strongest in spring and summer, daytime, 7-8 hours with moderate projection.
