Silver Mountain Water by Creed

Creed can be quite pricey, but most people find their perfume to be fairly consistent in quality and they often come highly recommended despite the cost.
The fragrance profile consists of green tea, black current, musk, petitgrain, sandalwood, and galbanum.
White Tea by Elizabeth Arden
Although we also placed the green tea version of this fragrance on the list, we felt it only right to add the white tea version as well. While this version isn’t quite as “fresh” smelling as the green tea version, it is crisper and more neutral scented, which appeals to a different group of people.
The fragrance profile consists of white tea, white iris, madras wood, tonka bean, and three different varieties of musk.
