Creed Viking EDP

Description

Viking is Creed's 2017 flagship men's release, composed by Olivier Creed and honored with The Fragrance Foundation's 2018 Award for Best Male Fragrance. Inspired by the craftsmanship of Norse longships, it opens with a bracing blend of pink pepper, peppermint, and absinthe, moves through a spiced floral heart of lavender and Bulgarian rose, and settles into a woody, musky base. It's Creed's first major men's statement since Aventus: bold, but more aromatic and green than fruity.
