Millésime Impérial by Creed is a salty, citrus-bright marine scent, calm rather than splashy. Sea salt and a soft fruity note open it, so the first impression is sea air with a hint of sweetness. Sicilian lemon, bergamot and mandarin orange fill the heart, and a touch of iris adds a powdery smoothness. Sea notes, musk and woods keep the dry-down clean and relaxed. It dates from 1995 and is mostly worn by men who like fresh scents with a little polish. Voters wear it in summer, during the day, and it is a natural pick for the office. Its longevity is voted moderate by most wearers, and most call its sillage moderate. A 10ml decant is a neat way to spend a summer with it.

The community verdict
Most report moderate staying power and projection for Millésime Impérial. Sea salt and fruity notes open into Sicilian lemon and bergamot, then settle into musk and sea notes. It suits summer days and works in spring too; its fresh, polished feel draws compliments.

More from Creed
Creed dates its story to 1760, and its perfumes still share a bright, tailored style that reads as effortless rather than loud. Citrus and bergamot open most of them, then ambergris, musk and sandalwood give a clean, smooth finish. Aventus is the name people ask about first: fruity and sweet up top, dry and woody underneath. Green Irish Tweed goes the other way, cool and green with iris and violet. Silver Mountain Water feels as crisp as a winter morning, and Virgin Island Water adds coconut for holidays. Olivier Creed and Pierre Bourdon are among the perfumers credited on the range here.
