Creed Millesime Imperial is a marine, citrus fragrance favored by the world's top entertainers, both male and female. It is inspired by Sicily and Italian fragrances featuring notes of citrus and sea salt. The word Millesime is a designation that means that the best crops from a particular year's harvest were used in the creation of the scent. Notes of fruit, sea salt, Sicilian lemon, bergamot, mandarin, Florentine iris, musk, woods and marine notes.
This fragrance is in the Woody Floral Musk fragrance group. We are decanting from a current version bottle that is 2020. There are some differences between this bottle (gold) and the older clear versions.
from bestmenscolognes - "Millesime Imperial is a crisp and clean cologne which is beautifully constructed. It reminds me of a summer day spent along the coast, as it is warm, inviting, and almost juicy in its presence. The dry down period subtly shifts from the abundant fruity notes to the more marine or oceanic side of things, which reveals a certain masculinity to the scent."
from dapperconfidential - This site rated best of Creed and Millesime Imperial was given Best Overall. "It is crips, clean fragrance with fresh fruity notes and a touch of musk that create a classic fragrance."
from fragrancewar - Pros - soft, salty, fruity and mostly oceanic aroma. Suitable for formal and professional. Suitable for summer, especially for people who love the ocean. Cons - sillage is a bit weak.

In these uncertain times, this fragrance is not offensive or overpowering but it is high quality. I fine this scent quite smooth and can be used through out the year. It is a safe scent to use in an office environment. I does fade away into a soft skin scent.
Like many people who love Millesime Imperial for the Spring/Summer, I find it to be a really fresh, marine citrus fragrance that is completely unisex, pleasant smelling, and unlikely to offend anyone. It gives off a fresh, saltwater melon vibe (some people say Watermelon, but I get more honeydew) that is really quite unique, and very agreeable. The primary downside of the fragrance is that performance wise, it varies greatly from person to person, with most people reporting fairly poor projection and longevity. That said, it is one of my favorite fragrances from Creed, so I'm still inclined to give it a very good rating. If only the scent lasted more than 4-5 hours... Still, 4/5 stars from me.

This fragrance didn't grab me at all. As with all fragrances you should try before you buy. Who knows, you may love this.
