Creed Baie de Genievre is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1982, created by Olivier Creed. Baie de Genievre opens with Bergamot and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Clove and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Ambergris. Creed's Baie de Genievre carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This discontinued Creed is a proper old-school aromatic, a divisive 'love it or hate it' scent that leans masculine. Expect a fresh, spicy, barbershop vibe; some find it classy and unique, others think it's a 'horrendous abomination'.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Opening with a sharp, spicy burst of cinnamon and bright bergamot, Baie de Genievre quickly settles into its aromatic heart. Juniper berries provide a distinct 'gin-like' freshness, counterbalanced by the warm, slightly peppery kick of clove. The drydown unveils a sophisticated base of earthy vetiver and Creed's signature ambergris, adding a clean, slightly salty depth that lingers.
