Love in White
Love in White by Creed is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2005 in the luxury price tier. It opens with sweet orange, rice powder and iris, moves into magnolia, narcissus, jasmine and rose and dries down to sandalwood, ambergris and vanilla. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
- Rice Powder Dry, soft and clean. Skin-like and very quiet.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
Heart
- Magnolia Lemony white floral. Bright and clean rather than heavy.
- Narcissus Green, hay-like and slightly animalic. Strange and beautiful.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
