Creed Fantasia de Fleurs (for women)

A strange reason to buy this was my daughter's love of history . She saw who it had been made for and told me so much about her I bought a bottle for her as a gift. At first it was a little heavy for me then the ambergris came through . I find this substance fascinating. Great that the other review is by Henriette because I am constantly trying to get someone to formulate a perfume for Queen Henrietta Maria's memory. Creed were not around in her time , no perfume house was that I know of but she was very interested in perfumery amongst many things. David Prybus ( when approached ) was very polite but explained that with the market as it is he needs a name that would sell the scent. It's time England paid a scented tribute to a very brave woman . That's one of the fascinations of Creed they use things like ambergris. Somewhere I read that a bottle of Henrietta's perfume exists and still smells because of the ambergris. Those not from the U.K she was our Queen from 1625-1649 ( her husband the King was beheaded ). She was Queen Mother after the Restoration , I forget the year she died .

This is special, truly special. Like a diamond you can feel one or the other note depending on how you move around, even breathe. I have never experienced a multi-faceted scent like this before. Perfect for autumn days and when being chic is in command.
