Because of the recent sale on these fragrances, I decided to go to the mall and smell a few other Creed fragrances and I was actually taken by surprise on how much I enjoyed some of them. This sparked the question for me what is your favorite Creed Fragrance that is not Aventus. I smelled Original Vetiver and could not believe that I have not smelled it before. I thoroughly enjoyed that fragrance and have contemplated putting it on my list as one to look for. I was wondering what my fellow Fragrance enthusiast thought about Creed. Please let me know your favorite ones that should be explored excluding Aventus lol I have it and love it! Thanks in advance for your answers!!

Has anyone who has been taking GLP-1 found that they have had a stronger interest in fragrances? I guess my deeper interest in perfumery grew when I started taking the drug. Your thoughts? From the article: For some GLP-1 users, a positive effect is a growing interest in gourmand fragrances. According to NielsenIQ, perfume sales are up 23% as people seek ‘sensory inputs’ they no longer get from food. Similarly, Mintel reported a 24% increase in gourmand scents. Trendalytics reported a 266% increase in social engagement for gourmand perfumes compared to last year. An Appellation article states, “One theory suggests that when sugar cravings fade, the brain may seek out scent-based ‘pleasure signals’ as a substitute. In this way, indulgent-smelling products might offer a non-caloric form of comfort or reward.” https://www.happi.com/exclusives/glp-1s-unintended-side-effects-will-fuel-new-beauty-products/

I get more compliments from women on this than any other scent that I wear.

I was looking through my fragrance collection and noticed that it includes a wide variety of houses. I have a few houses from which I own multiple fragrances. The two largest collections are from Creed, Dolce & Gabbana and Mancera with three bottles each. This got me thinking: Do you brothers have brand loyalty to any specific houses? If so, which house and how many bottles do you have from that house?

Today, I am wearing one of my favourite fragrances of all time. Beautiful, long lasting, sweet tobacco scent. This was the people’s choice of the winter best fragrance!! Thanks for participating!
