Virgin Island Water by Creed is a fragrance belonging to the Citrus fragrance family, designed to be enjoyed by both men and women. Since its launch in 2007, this fragrance has captivated those seeking a fresh and exotic sensorial experience, evoking the sensation of being in a tropical paradise surrounded by an ocean breeze. Its composition has been carefully created by perfumers Olivier Creed and Erwin Creed, who managed to combine a balanced blend of notes that transport you to the Virgin Islands of the Caribbean.

The top notes of Virgin Island Water are the first thing you notice upon applying the fragrance, presenting an explosion of freshness and energy. Coconut, in its most natural and pure form, establishes the base of the fragrance, giving it a creamy softness reminiscent of the beach. Lime, also known as green lemon, adds a refreshing acidity that blends harmoniously with Sicilian mandarin, whose lively, juicy, citrus sweetness adds a radiant and joyful touch to the blend. White bergamot, with its spicy freshness, completes this opening with a light and bright undertone.

At the heart of the fragrance, notes of ginger, ylang-ylang, Indian jasmine, and hibiscus play a pivotal role in creating a more complex and sophisticated olfactory experience. Ginger brings a warm, slightly spicy note, perfectly balanced by ylang-ylang, an exotic flower that exudes an intense and enveloping floral sweetness. Indian jasmine introduces a refined, fresh, and soft floral dimension, while hibiscus, also known as Jamaican flower or cayenne, adds a refreshing, tropical sensation, reminiscent of an exotic cocktail on a summer afternoon.

The contrast between the floral and spicy notes is complemented by the base of the fragrance, where Virgin Island Water reveals its most sensual and warm character. White rum, a distinctive element of the fragrance, brings a deep, alcoholic sweetness, evoking the sensation of a tropical drink enjoyed under the Caribbean sun. Sugarcane, perceived in the fragrance, intensifies this sweet and rustic note, while musk lends a velvety softness that envelops the skin with a sensual and comforting touch.

The combination of these ingredients creates a balanced fragrance that remains true to its tropical and Caribbean inspiration, but also manages to convey a sophistication that makes it suitable for different occasions. Virgin Island Water is not only a fresh and revitalizing fragrance, but also a complex perfume that can be enjoyed both day and night, ideal for those seeking something unique that combines the freshness of citrus with the warmth of spices and floral notes.

Virgin Island Water by Creed is a fragrance that captures the essence of the tropics in its composition, providing an immersive and pleasurable sensorial experience. With its blend of citrus, floral, and woody notes, this fragrance has established itself as a favorite among lovers of fresh, exotic, and sophisticated perfumes. It is a perfect choice for those seeking a refreshing scent with a complexity that doesn't go unnoticed.
