Creed Royal Scottish Lavender is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1856, created by James Henry Creed. Royal Scottish Lavender opens with Citrus and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Lavender, and dries down to a base of Spicy, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Creed's Royal Scottish Lavender carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This discontinued Creed is a classic barbershop scent, clean and fresh with a good dose of lavender. It's high quality, but don't expect beast-mode performance; it's a skin scent for many, though some find it office-appropriate.

About

Royal Scottish Lavender opens with a sharp burst of citrus and bergamot, quickly giving way to a prominent, clean lavender heart. As it settles, a warm, soft base of sandalwood and subtle spices emerges, rounded out by a hint of vanilla that prevents any harshness. It’s a refined, aromatic composition that evokes a sense of traditional elegance.
