Warmer days are finally on the much-anticipated horizon, and all thoughts are turning to the rejuvenating vibrancy of summer. Those long, hot days of ice-cool cocktails, lively company and revitalising sunshine awaken the soul like nothing else. There’s no better way to transport yourself into the summer mindset than with an energising scent, so read on to discover three of the most invigorating Eau de Parfums from The House of Creed, and let us reveal the inspiration behind such extraordinarily refreshing fragrances.

The Best Fragrances For Summer

For centuries, Eau de Cologne fragrances have been celebrated for their revivifying freshness – with bright citrus and subtle herbal notes that immediately invigorate and uplift. This may sound like an Eau de Cologne would be the perfect choice for the summertime, but as a result of its lightness, it can dry down to a very faint finish that requires frequent top-ups. Richer fragrances have a higher concentration of stronger base notes, making them last far longer on the skin. Eliminating any compromise, Master Perfumer Oliver Creed has encapsulated the fresh spirit of an Eau de Cologne, and elevated it into a luxuriously rich, long-lasting Eau de Parfum, available in three very different, yet equally sublime, Cologne-inspired scents. Each bursting with invigorating citrus fruits, these three fragrances for men and women boast the same Millésime quality found within each bottle from The House of Creed collection.
