Which of these 4 newest Millesimes from the regular line are your favourite, and why?

-My favourite is Himalaya. Masculine, fresh, and woody. Great for both casual and formal wear, and it smells trendy and modern.

Personally I find Original Vetiver the best fragrance as a whole. But I would never turn down a bottle of Virgin Island Water. In fact, it's a prime candidate for a 30ml bottle.

Out of those you mentioned, I too, like Himalaya the best. However, if I was to pick one of them up first it would probably be Virgin Island Water. VIW would be a possible purchase, just b/c it's a little more unique and would fit well with my summer travel and such. I 100% agree with mtgprox in that it is a smaller bottle type of purchase. I really only see using it on vacations, beach parties, and other more specific occasions.

For it's sheer versatility I'd go with Original Vetiver though I also own and like Himalaya and Original Santal.

Virgin Island Water and Himalaya for me. Both are extremely unique scents...

VIW is the only one with any character. It's singular, smells like the beach without smelling like suntan lotion, and transports me the way some Lutens or Tauers can. Of all the Creeds, this and Epicea are the only modern ones I can stand.

Himalaya, OV and OSantal just don't do anything for me, especially OV and OS, neither of which smell like they possess any of the namesake notes. All three smell more like fabric softener or air freshener to me than perfume.

Original Santal. Not that I think it's the best fragrance, it's more that I appreciate the audacity. Himalaya is the most wearable of the four. Original Vetiver is a close second in terms of wearability. VIW - I've always preferred Coppertone to Hawaiian Tropic, but it's not bad stuff. Just not for me.
