Part of Creed’s Acqua Originale Collection – a fragrance journal of holidays and adventures. Fresh, radiant scents that conjure the joy and energy of travel. From Java to Tuscany, India to Sicily, let this collection take you to some of the most exquisite locations around the world via scent.
Green Neroli captures the scent of balmy summer evenings in Italy, sitting outside enjoying a glass of wine and the scent of the citrus blossoms as the sun gently begins to set on the day. This is summer in a bottle. A hypnotic and herbaceous citrus scent, reminiscent of that moment when day turns to night and the cool breeze of the evening brings welcome relief. An energising and cooling fragrance that strikes the perfect balance between sharp and sweet. An ode to the wonderful landscape, the rolling green hills and the abundant citrus trees of Southern Italy.

HOW IT WEARS
Green Neroli is the perfect fusion of citrus and greenery in a fragrance. An incredibly aromatic scent that creates a lively fizz, an effervescence on the skin. The herbs balance the citrus perfectly to ensure this fragrance remains aromatic and almost with a hint of verbena sharpness throughout. It smells exactly like you’d imagine a cool breeze on a balmy evening as you’re surrounded by citrus trees would smell! An EDP, this collection has great longevity for such fresh and bright scents. We get around 6 – 8 hours on the skin generally with a medium silage.
LORE LOVES
We just love to let this fragrance take us to Italy in the middle of summer, fruit picking. Specifically lemon picking. We can just imagine the scent of picturesque and lush lemon orchards filling the air, the scent on your hands as you pick each lemon. Sharp, tangy and a bit sweet. Green Neroli creates a gorgeous fusion of the sweetness of freshly squeezed lemon juice, with the zestiness of the rind and the leaves of the tree. The gentle introduction of mint and herbal notes also enhance the sheer green tones that cocoon and cool the effervescent citrus beautifully.
