I am family with only the masculine Creeds. I was thinking about getting my little sister, who is 20 a Creed Parfume for Christmas, could anyone recommend some, please?

I haven't tried many, but the only one I've heard good things about is Tuberose Indiana, I believe. I find Love in White and Love in Black to both be AWFUL.

Really, it would be better to know what your sister likes. What is her current perfume? Also, why are you set on it being a Creed fragrance? I'm no expert, but I think that their masculines are much better regarded than their feminines.

Tubereuse Indiana, Jasmal & Royal Water (unisex) are my favorites. All are good & definitely worth sampling.

Spring Flower (apple, fruits, florals, musk) and Acqua Fiorentina (greengage plums, lemon, woods) are light and excellent for daily wear. Love in White is also a good zesty creamy white floral...quite pretty, and I know many women who have asked my wife about it when she wears it (and no, shes not a "Creed fan"). Another that has been a hit with her friends is the unisex Virgin Island Water.

Depending on which perfume board you go to and who's pissed off at which house, either the Creed masculines suck, or their feminines suck, or they all suck. Creed has many good frargances for women...Jasmal (light green jasmine), Tuberose Indiana (old world tuberose), Fleurs de Bulgarie (intense rose), Vanisia (vanilla), Love in Black (modern iris-rose-violet), etc.

Big 2nd here for Spring Flower and the Aqua Fiorentina sounds sooo nice too, imagine it would also be appropriate. I would also 2nd Love in Black. FYI the Spring Flower bath/shower gel is beautiful with such lovely packaging.

My daughter is 21 btw, and for the record she loves Tubereuse Indiana but found it a wee bit strong.
