Virgin Island Water
Creed Virgin Island Water Eau de Parfum 100ml opens on lime and bergamot, sharp and bitter for a moment, and then coconut arrives and changes the direction entirely. Jasmine sits in the heart beside the coconut and gives it a floral lift so the creaminess does not read flat. The citrus never quite disappears; it keeps cutting back through the sweetness for the first hour.
Tonka bean, white musk and patchouli finish it. The tonka is vanillic and sweet, the musk clean and soft, the patchouli faintly earthy underneath, and together with the coconut they produce the rum-like, lactonic sweetness the composition is built around. It moves from citrus through coconut into a warm gourmand base that turns woody at the very end. Sweet and fresh are held in the same balance throughout, which is what keeps the coconut from going heavy.
Olivier Creed and Erwin Creed composed it for the 2007 launch. Creed was founded in 1760 by James Henry Creed on Conduit Street in London, beginning as a tailoring house.
Moderate longevity and moderate sillage make it a close-wearing scent rather than a room-filling one. Summer is where it sits most naturally, the lime and coconut doing their best work in heat, and it wears in spring, autumn and winter too. It suits casual wear, professional wear and a night out, and at any of them it stays a scent people meet when they are near you rather than before.
