Most, if not all, Creed fragrances are oil based I believe. Regardless of alcohol or oil, I have tried many brands and colognes including Tom Ford (which has a lot of alcohol based fragrances btw) and liked Creed the most. I have a few Tom Ford atomizers for travel that I bought with Amex’s Saks credits but my go to is Creed. Most smells from TF don’t do it for me.
I’m particular about colognes: they can’t be too musky and not too fresh smelling as in too much citrus. I like something that smells good, clean, and has an understated elegance and sportiness to it. Aventus and Green Irish Tweed from Creed are what I like. Have had Imperial Millesime and it’s a bit too feminine for me. Will try Himalayas and Spring Mountains later when I’m running out of what I have now. Creed is expensive enough that it’s not the typical colognes that 99% of guys wear and not as stuffy feeling compared to other brands (at least for me).
