At a glance

Credited to Olivier Creed, though perfumer Pierre Bourdon has publicly claimed authorship, Green Irish Tweed opens on lemon and verbena, moves through a heart of violet leaf and iris, and closes on sandalwood and ambergris. Its clean, green, understatedly luxurious structure became one of Creed's most celebrated and frequently discussed fragrances among enthusiasts, cited for a rare combination of simplicity and sophistication, and the authorship dispute between Creed and Bourdon remains a notable point of controversy in perfume history.
