Creed

Green Irish Tweed

Green Irish Tweed by Creed is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 1985 in the luxury price tier. It opens with lemon and peppermint, moves into violet leaf and iris and dries down to sandalwood and ambergris. 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.
• Peppermint Icy and sharp. Reads clean but can tip into chewing gum.

Heart

• Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
• Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.

Dry-down

• Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
• Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
