Howdy!:wave:

:type: I

was in Padadena, California this past August fer me birthday, and was lucky enough to run across Green Irish Tweed

by Creed ($100! in the stores). Sniffing everything I could, trying to find a new scent, my nose was done before

long; even the coffe beans had me confused after sniffing different colognes. Green Irish Tweed stuck with me

mentally, and what I wanted to know, by Creed users "ONLY," is if Green Irish Tweed the best of Creed experience, or

should I try to find samples of their other scents?

Forever greatful.:box:

I'm not where I can look at my

bottle of Creed. I've only tried one Creed product, and I think it is called Imperial something or other (I have

probably mentioned it here in a past discussion).

Whatever Creed I am using turns women's heads for sure.

scents...Imperial? How many Creed products do you have!? :blink: I asked the guy showing me all the new stuff if

they had samples...no luck...and after hearing the price, I understood why!:run:

It depends what you're after..

I've sampled several Creed Scents, and enjoyed two of them enough to add to the stable, despite the price. GIT is

good stuff (one of the ones I own), and definitely a joy to wear, but for my money, Silver Mountain Water is the

best they make.

Oscar is a big fan of Tweed.

Every place I've been was out of it or didn't carry it.

Tabarome and Millesime Imperial

are good.

http://www.fragrancenet.com Do a search for Creed (you'll get a list of Creed plus click on a name and

you'll get the description). If you get on their e-mail list you will get a 10% off. Plus free shipping for

orders over $60 and no tax (depends on where you live). Earlier in the year, they sent me a $20 off $75 or more

order. I've only seen 10% off lately. I always use that site to see what's a fragrance before buying, since I'm

allergic to florals. :)

BTW: Creed is a good choice!

THANKS...each and

everyone of you! :drunk: I guess I'll have to do some digging, 'cause I'm now I'm confused...thought Green

Irish Tweed was the best of the crew. Wished I had just sniffed all Creed. :sad: It seems more digging for samples

is needed for my next expensive "smellmegood" purchase, in which will be of the Creed family. :sick:

Once

again...Thanks! :wave:

Mobley,

I haven't tried them

all, but I have sampled a number of the fragrances in the Creed line. Green Irish Tweed is by far my favorite, and

the only one that I actually bought a bottle of. Here's a link to the place where I bought it. ThePerfumeSpot is

the only internet retailer from whom I've gotten as speedy service as I have from Love-Scent. My package arrived

two days after I ordered it with four other fragrance samples inside. Their prices are quite competitive as well.

You should let a woman do your

sniffing for you. Try not to pick the scents you wear if you can get women to pick them for you (assuming, of

course, your goal is to make yourself more attractive to women).

Yes, Signor Friendly...t'was she that was with me when I lost me virginity to the scent to Green Irish Tweed, and

vas vondering if Creed had something else as sweet in their line of products. But, as always...good idea! :thumbsup:

Thanks!

I'm an ex-CREED user.. not

because I don't like it, I just ran out and am trying out Chanel Platinum

anyway, going by bottle colors..

because I really don't remember the names off hand, the GOLD bottle will DEFINITELY get you some good comments from

the ladies, I had SO many girls come and cuddle up to me and tell me how good I smelled,

as far as personal

preference, I REALLY enjoyed the smell of the BLACK bottle and will probably try that out next...

just my 2

cents =))

the BLACK container is called Green Irish Tweed (my personal preference).. the GOLD is called Millesime Imperial

Yes Platinum is some VERY good stuff, just hate that after about 2 hours or so it wears

I love GIT; you have good taste

Mr. Mobley. Other Creeds you might want to try: Bois du Portugal (cedar, sandalwood, lavender and vetiver) and Baie

de Genievre (cinnamon leaves, vetiver and juniper); both are full-bodied, very manly but intriguing and different.

Silver Mountain Water (green tea, blackcurrent) is very good but much lighter, more for those who like fresh clean

scents like L'Eau d'Issey and Aqua di Gio. I bought a dozen samples of Creed from an ebayer called bigbonkykitty

very reasonably.

Well, Monsieur Mobes, I think that

currently I like GIT best of all - but it all depends on how it wears on you, how it blends with your own skin

scent. You'll have to sample them on your skin to know which one makes you happiest. You could also get a few small

decants on ebay to try out, give the women in your life a sniff and get their opinions ... always a good flirting

technique, offering your neck for their delectation, while innocently soliciting their womanly wisdom! (apparently

we are suckers for guys wanting advice ... :LOL:

Wow! I thought I was

going to buy some Green Irish Tweed in a couple weeks while on vacation. I knew it was expensive but I didn't

realize how much so. Checking the links given in this thread, no one had minatures of that product, so I've settled

for a 2.5 ml sample of Tweed and a .05 oz sample of Creed's Himalaya from Perfumebay. Also ordered minature

collectables of Angel Men, Benetton Sport, and Armani's Emporio, and also a .05 oz sample of Armani's

Mania.

The Angel Men I had read about here, I sampled the Armanis on a card in a department store and thought

they were worth looking further into, and I was a fan of the Benetton F1 team for a long time. I've always wanted

something by Benetton but never cared for their knitted clothing.

Now if only the unscented Chikara was

released today so I can get it in before I leave for vacation at the end of next week. If the scents arrive in time,

I plan at least to try the two Creeds out then. I guess I'll have to settle for Perception, though I like Chikara

better. I guess the "cologne extender" benefit will be nice since I will be working with such small quantities of

the Creed scents.

Got my order from

Perfumebay already. And they threw in a .05 oz sample of Pierre Cardin Bleu Marine Por Lui and a pack of Bvlgari por

Homme after shave emulsion on top of the quick service.

The A*Men miniature is cool, it's refillable but the

Armani Emporio is a sealed metal cannister with a spray head.

I probably really stink right now. I had

sprayed Very Sexy for Him 2 on my chest around noon and as soon as I opened my package just now, I sprayed A*Men on

one wrist and used the dabber of the Green Irish Tweed sample to apply a bit to my other wrist.

Both are good

scents and evoke memories, I'm not sure of what though. I was surprised that the A*Men was the "older" smelling of

the two. It brings up thoughts of chocolate and tobbacco and men in smoking jackets sitting in overstuffed chairs

while smoking pipes at the club. I like it a lot but think it won't be work appropriate as it's so

strong.

The creed is familiar too but I can't smell it right now inless I bring my wrist up to my nose. The

A*Men overpowers it too much. Can't wait to try the Himalaya but I need to wash the others off first.

I'm

starting to think that miniatures and samples are the way to go, they will be especially convienent for traveling.

Hopefully, I can find some Creed minis on my trek to civilization. Looks like it's going to be another Perception

vacation so I can play with this new stuff. Even if Bruce released the unscented Chikara tomorrow, I don't know if

it would arrive before I left on my trip next Saturday morning. I will still bring Chikara along, maybe the beta so

I can try mixing with these stronger scents. Anyway, once again I have too many items to choose from. :)
