ChypreWhat does Création (1984) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens bright and fruity with blackcurrant, bergamot and mandarin orange, while galbanum adds a green edge. The heart is full of flowers, with rose, jasmine, tuberose and ylang-ylang leading. In the base, vetiver, patchouli, oakmoss and vanilla settle it into a woody, slightly sweet footing.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, with evening and night out leaning slightly ahead of daytime. Most see it as feminine and classic. Dior Diorella and Grès Cabotine have a close profile.
