Creed Neroli Sauvage is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1994, created by Olivier Creed. Neroli Sauvage opens with Bergamot and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Neroli and Lemon Verbena, and dries down to a base of Ambergris. Creed's Neroli Sauvage carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a head-scratcher. Gorgeous, uplifting citrus that screams summer, but with a performance so abysmal it feels like a prank. You'll love it for the 20 minutes it sticks around, then resent the price tag.

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.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, clean citrus profile makes it ideal for casual wear and sports, as it's never overpowering. However, its notoriously poor longevity makes it a questionable choice for formal events or dates where sustained presence is desired. It's safe for the office, but you'll need to reapply frequently.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Lippia citriodora absolute from Lemon Verbena
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with an exhilarating burst of zesty bergamot and grapefruit, bright and invigorating like a tall glass of lemonade. Beneath this sparkling citrus, lemon verbena and a soft neroli emerge, adding a gentle green and subtly floral character. The dry down is a whisper of Creed's signature ambergris, warm and slightly salty, delivering a sun-kissed skin sensation.
