Story & Positioning
Creed Viking is a story of fearless exploration inspired by legendary longships and the “land of fire and ice.” Created by sixth-generation master perfumer Olivier Creed, Creed Viking Eau de Parfum (2017) channels a fiery voyage with bracing citrus, cool mint, and crackling spice over smooth woods for a clean yet assertive trail. Its companion, Viking Cologne (also an Eau de Parfum), is the cooler counterpart, crisp citrus and aromatic herbs sailing into airy woods to evoke fjords, glaciers, and boundless modern adventure. Community comparisons often mention the citrus-vetiver cleanliness of Terre d’Hermès, though Viking Cologne remains its own polished, herb-spiced signature rather than a one-to-one dupe.
