The pompous and pretentious one for those who are seduced by SA bull.... about best quality natural ingredients and so on. This is a good example of people willing to pay 200$ up for somethig good but don't want to be the poor ass guy who wear cool water. Be smart buy the latter!
Original santal and vetiver are other very good example of this fraudulous speech made by this brand

Very nice but extremely expensive even at wholesale level which is a shame. I'd recommend ALL men to have a bottle of this in their collection. You will never go unnoticed especially to those who are well aware of what you're wearing. It's worth every penny. I LOVE it when my husband wears G.I.T (especially to public events and functions)....BUT.... I make sure not to show it or give too many compliments or else he'd be splashing it on everyday!!!

Its very green, fresh, natural, and sophisticated. Lasts a long time but its downfall is that it's expensive.

After completely trashing Creed and their awful Original Vetiver fragrance, I feel obligated to review GIT. Simply put, if I were told to pick only four fragrances to wear for the rest of my life, GIT would be on that short list (along with Equipage, L'Instant Homme and Eau Sauvage). The best way to describe this is that it's a lot like Cool Water, but less sweet, more masculine, muskier and with much higher quality materials. Go easy on the application, though, because it's loud and highly concentrated. GIT is the perfect foil to snooty Olivier Creed's absurd claim that fragrances with mostly natural materials are always superior to those with synthetics (in one interview, he equated perfumers who use lots of synthetics with line order cooks at Burger King). Creed is probably jealous because I've heard that GIT was created by Pierre Bourdon, not Olivier Creed, and is so much better than so many of his own creations (no great surprise then that he takes credit for creating GIT on Creed's website). GIT is obviously a primarily synthetic fragrance, and is no less for it at all. Worn sparingly, it is the pinnacle of good taste.

In line with many other perfumistas, G.I.T was my first taste of the Creed brand, and it was very different to anything I had sampled before. Now that I have tried many other top flight fragrances, I feel able to give an objective opinion of this now legendary brew. One of the early phases reminded me greatly of Aqua de Parma Colonia, but softened and muted in comparison. It works well as a fresh, green cocktail, and it is undeniably a beautiful creation, but a few small doubts remain about it's subtlety. For such a rich blend, I find this quite one dimensional and lacking in peripheral charm. This a special fragrance, marred only by it's ubiquity amongst the uninitiated, but I expected a little more progression than I got. However, this may be my problem, and not Creed's

Ah but i think they've changed the bottle, now is trasparent . This fragrance is amazing but not long lasting on my skin

There's been a lot of talk on how GIT
presents similarities with Cool Water.
No, GIT takes of to a divine scent while
CW is an 80's synthetic fragrance, though for it's time was a break through. No similarities unless lavender smells like iris.

Anyway, for anyone wanting to try what
would be the fragrance of all time, should put his hand deep in his pocket and buy this juice.

The opening is a premiere of perfection while it
settle downs to a love of violet leaves and iris and the dry-down is sandalwood and ambergris. How he has worked the proportions of iris and ambergris is a masterpiece. Perfect.
The only disadvantage is the silage, it's low.
To put it simple, GIT is the gentleman's cologne.
This is how love smells.

This is one of my favorite colognes. Another fragrance by Creed that I like very much is Himalaya. They are both very expensive and classy. Green Irish Tweed is so much more than Cool Water by Davidoff. This has got to be one of the most magnificent and elegant fragrances.

I walked into the cologne store, hoping to find a smell that I am looking for in a very long time, not too strong, not too light ..kind of in the middle ..when I smelled Green Irish Tweed (for men), I just fell in love, this unique smell is long lasting and can wear it for any occasion, been getting complements from lots of people.

If you've smelled Cool Water by Davidoff, then you have a very good idea of what Green Irish Tweed smells like. Green, dark with a dull finish.
Very expensive, but worth it.

A soft green herbal fragrance, with a lightly sweet floral note of Iris in the top. A very smooth and light Vetiver note graces the heart. The base is woody, mostly Sandal. Very linear from start to finish. I have to use a lot to get good sillage and longevity. With a generous application, it lasts 6+ hours on me.

For me, what gives Green Irish Tweed it's "to die for" dry-down is the Mysore Sandalwood of the base. The Mysore wood is the best Sandalwood note I have ever smelled in a fragrance... clean, earthy, and slightly dry... magic to the nose.

I use it for daytime casual wear, designer casual (like a tweed sports coat worn with some Tab Twills casual), not for blue jeans and t-shirts. Fresh and natural, nothing synthetic. Very expensive. Indulge.
