Creed Wild Vetiver

You can buy the genuine Creed Wild Vetiver straight from Creed. The real bottle comes first; the accessible alternatives below are there if you'd rather spend less.

Creed Wild Vetiver opens with Timur, Bergamot and Pink Pepper; a heart of Rose, Geranium and Blackcurrant; drying down to Vetiver, Cedar and Ambroxan, from notes Creed Boutique (official) publishes. Those notes read as citrus, fruity, floral, spicy, amber, woody, the coarse families Creed Boutique (official) cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.

The genuine Creed Wild Vetiver runs £220 at Creed as of this page's last update, though retailers set their own prices and change them; a real 5ml sample is $8.99.

We rank the "smells-like" alternatives to Wild Vetiver by how closely their cited accords match the original, cheapest first. A dupe is meant to evoke Wild Vetiver, not match its formula, and we say as much. If we can't verify a genuine match yet, we leave it off.

Armaf Club De Nuit Urban Man Elixir (shares Ambroxan, Geranium, Pink Pepper); Armaf Club De Nuit Sillage (shares Blackcurrant, Ambroxan, Cedar); Creed Viking Cologne (shares Geranium, Pink Pepper, Vetiver). These share specific notes with Wild Vetiver, a closer match than a shared accord family. We rank them by how many of Wild Vetiver's cited notes they actually share, weighting rarer notes heavier than ubiquitous ones. Each is its own fragrance with real, sourced notes, not a copy of Wild Vetiver, and has its own page.
