I made the mistake of buying this blind.

Image conjured up: an overdressed, aging woman or man attempting to use scent to establish some kind of power position. They cannot see it but everyone else does.

I have never understood what “suppose” to be so great about it. It doesn’t smell bad of course, but I can’t see the magic even to start with.

It’s just nice for the price. *yawn*


Semi-fresh aromatic woodsy oriental fougere. Very masculine for sure. Creed-style amber is by far the most prominent ingredient. It almost overwhelms this scent completely. Defeated woods with lavender are very subdued here yet they are capable to add few layers to this otherwise fairly minimalist blend.


When I smell BdP, I think of the word “ympäripyöreä”; I then check out the Finnish-English dictionary and see it translates into “vague”, “evasive” or “noncommittal”.

Oh dear -- I'm the black sheep again. I really don't like BDP. It's just too 'old school' and unashamedly masculine and formal for me. The scents that go for that angle all smell roughly similar, Safari, Riverside Drive, Polo and I don't like any of them. I like scents to amaze me -- not produce a 'ho hum -- and?' reaction.

This is my first Creed that left my credit card numb.

It smells good from the bottle. That's it.

Apply it to your skin and it's just...too...soapy. too powdery. Smells "old," too. This fragrance is for men over 40. I'm not kidding.

The only pro I can see is that it seems to last forever.

Do not apply more than two sprays...or else you will choke people around you. You could get sued.
