Citrus Bigarade
Citrus Bigarade by Creed is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with lemon and petitgrain, moves into black pepper and mandarin and dries down to haitian vetiver, ginger and peppermint. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
Heart
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
Dry-down
- Haitian Vetiver Cleaner, smokier vetiver with a grapefruit lift. Less earthy than Javan.
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Peppermint Icy and sharp. Reads clean but can tip into chewing gum.
