Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Original Vetiver EDP
This is a clean, green, soapy vetiver that screams 'expensive Irish Spring'. It's a gorgeous scent profile for many, but its shocking lack of performance for most means it's often dismissed as not worth the Creed price tag.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Creed Original Vetiver Oil
Emanating a clean yet luxurious green scent, this is a definitive perfume oil version that captures vetiver's lushness.
