Love in White
Love in White opens with iris and bergamot but it is the rice note that makes this composition memorable: a soft, slightly powdery warmth that smells like sunlit linens rather than anything floral, giving the composition a domestic tenderness before the jasmine and rose heart arrives. The ylang-ylang adds warmth to the florals, and sandalwood with ambergris builds the base into something quietly luxurious. A fragrance about the particular comfort of white, worn things kept carefully.
Why We Carry This
The rice note in Love in White is one of the most successful unusual material choices in the Creed range: it gives the fragrance a warmth and specificity that prevents the iris-bergamot opening from reading as generic. The sandalwood-ambergris base develops beautifully over the hours of wear.
