The new fragrance contains notes of Tahitian orchids and South American Bourbon vanilla. Tonka bean, bergamot, Calabrian lemon and musk are also in the mix.
The bottle is a departure from previous Creed bottles. The company tell us that Sublime Vanille is "bottled in hand-blown Pochet glass etched with Creed’s famous crest, the fine fragrance is released with a gentle squeeze on a fabric pump, in perfumery’s classic tradition. When not in use, the pump is easily removed and replaced with a multifaceted hand-cut glass stopper that turns bottle into sculpture. For transport, the glass top is covered with white Italian leather, secured with a gold cord."
Available as a 8.4 ounce collectors’ flacon, $475.![]()
