Born in Nice, France, during the Italian occupation of World War II, Olivier Creed grew up in a family with a rich legacy in the perfume industry. As the sixth generation perfumer of the House of Creed, Olivier immersed himself in the world of aromas from a very young age.
Olivier's career as a perfumer began when he was only 18 years old. Encouraged by his father and grandmother, he took the reins of the family business and focused on the fragrance side. Under his visionary leadership, the House of Creed grew from a bespoke fragrance boutique to a globally recognized brand.
Olivier has been responsible for some of Creed's most popular modern fragrances, including Green Irish Tweed, Silver Mountain Water and the iconic Aventus. His unique approach to perfume creation, which blends traditional techniques with innovative ideas, has earned him the title of "world's most elegant perfumer."
Olivier's fragrances are inspired by his passion for art, travel and nature. He often travels around the world to source the best raw materials for his creations. This dedication to using only natural ingredients contributes to the exceptional quality of Creed fragrances.
Today, Olivier Creed runs the House of Creed with his son, Erwin Creed. Together they create artisanal fragrances in their factory in Fontainebleau, France.
