Creed Viking is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Olivier Creed.

Viking is a bold, spicy-fresh statement for the modern classicist. Its punchy mint, pepper and citrus opening signals confidence, while the drydown balances woods and florals with Creed's signature refinement.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer

Viking's fresh spicy-citrus opening and aromatic heart are ideal for spring and autumn, with enough warmth and spice for early fall. Less suited to winter due to its fresher profile and moderate projection.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its refined freshness and moderate sillage make it versatile for office and casual wear. The spicy aromatic signature allows for smart-casual or even semi-formal settings, but it is too dressed up for sport and not bold enough for black tie.

About

Creed Viking Eau de Parfum opens with an exhilarating rush of pink pepper and peppermint, underscored by zesty bergamot and lemon. The heart melds spicy clove and allspice with aromatic lavender and a creamy touch of rose, building to a base of smooth vetiver, crisp cedar and clean musk. The overall effect is brisk, spicy and invigorating yet unmistakably refined, evoking traditional barbershop masculinity with a modern, adventurous twist. Projection is moderate and the composition remains fresh and complex throughout its evolution.
