Creed Green Irish Tweed

Creed Green Irish Tweed is one of the most iconic and timeless fragrances from the House of Creed. Originally introduced in 1985, this sophisticated scent quickly became a favorite among royals, celebrities, and fragrance connoisseurs. With its bold freshness and elegant woody base, Green Irish Tweed remains a pillar of masculine perfumery—a fragrance that balances nature-inspired vibrancy with a deeply refined structure.

Created by Olivier Creed, a sixth-generation master perfumer, Green Irish Tweed pays homage to the rolling green hills of the Irish countryside. The scent evokes images of fresh-cut grass, a cool breeze brushing through tall trees, and the smooth confidence of a well-dressed gentleman strolling through the estate grounds.

Fragrance Composition

• Top Notes: Lemon Verbena, Peppermint
  

• Heart Notes: Violet Leaves
  

• Base Notes: Sandalwood, Iris, Ambergris
  

The opening of Green Irish Tweed is undeniably fresh. It bursts to life with a crisp blend of lemon verbena and peppermint, giving it an invigorating start that immediately grabs attention. These top notes are vibrant and airy—never too sharp or citrusy, but refreshing and cool, like the morning air in the countryside.

As the scent evolves, violet leaves emerge at the heart, introducing a clean, green floral nuance that adds depth and smoothness. The violet note bridges the transition from the bright opening to the warm, grounding base. It's this middle phase that makes Green Irish Tweed so seamless and harmonious—it never feels like the scent changes abruptly; instead, it flows like a melody.

The dry down reveals a base rich in sandalwood, iris, and ambergris, giving the fragrance a creamy, slightly powdery woodiness. The inclusion of ambergris—a classic Creed signature—adds a hint of oceanic saltiness and warmth that lingers beautifully on the skin.

Performance & Longevity

Creed Green Irish Tweed is known for its excellent performance. This Eau de Parfum lasts between 8 to 10 hours, often longer depending on skin chemistry and environmental factors. Its sillage (the scent trail it leaves) is moderate to strong, making it ideal for both everyday wear and more formal occasions.

This fragrance has a clean, gentlemanly character. It’s versatile enough for the office, elegant enough for a wedding, and relaxed enough for a weekend getaway. If you want a signature scent that is classic, sophisticated, and instantly recognizable, Green Irish Tweed delivers every time.

Who Should Wear Green Irish Tweed?

This fragrance is perfect for men who appreciate a clean, green, and timeless scent. It’s especially well-suited for those who value tradition but also want something that feels effortless and modern. Whether you're stepping into a boardroom or out for a country walk, Green Irish Tweed complements your presence with confidence and poise.

While it shines in the spring and summer months due to its fresh notes, it’s robust enough to be worn year-round. It appeals most to mature men or those who embrace a classic sense of style—think tailored suits, leather shoes, and understated luxury.

Bottle & Presentation

The flacon of Creed Green Irish Tweed is sleek, matte black, and unmistakably regal. Adorned with Creed’s iconic crest and gold lettering, the bottle echoes the brand’s rich heritage and timeless design ethos. It fits beautifully into any fragrance collection, doubling as both a personal indulgence and a statement piece.

The craftsmanship in both the scent and the packaging highlights what Creed does best—creating perfumes with personality, precision, and pedigree.

Application Tips

For best results, spray Green Irish Tweed on your pulse points—neck, wrists, and behind the ears. A couple of sprays are sufficient, as the fragrance projects well. Apply on moisturized skin to help the scent hold longer, and avoid rubbing it in to preserve the full structure of the composition.

Final Thoughts
