CREED INTRODUCES ACQUA FIORENTINA FOR WOMEN Renaissance Expressed in Fragrance, Highly Recommended by Whom You Know

Earlier this week, we kicked off our coverage of this distinguished brand with its history:

http://www.whomyouknow.com/2010/03/distinguished-heritage-of-house-of.html

We highly recommend Acqua Fiorentina for Women and it is the first Creed product we have reviewed. Master perfumer Olivier CREED with his son, Erwin, offers a fragrance of lasting artistry and permanent value. The inspiration is 15th century Florence in Italy, where artists and innovators such as da Vinci and Michelangelo lit a new flame of beauty and culture, sparking a Renaissance of art always growing in worth, even today. We would like to think they were subconsciously influenced by the beauty of Manhattan women as well...

Orchards and farms around Florence are sources for Acqua Fiorentina ingredients. It is exquisitely delightful and the unique scent will become you this Manhattan spring! The uplifting notes will envelop your senses and heighten your pleasures this season. CREED Acqua Fiorentina is hand made with flowers and fruits from the orchards and gardens around Florence. The quality is unsurpassed and this is among the very best perfumes we have reviewed. Greengage plum and bergamot orange are the masterpiece top notes. Renaissance roses, pink carnations and Calabrian lemon are the master’s choice for the thriving heart. Warm base notes of Virginia cedar and Indian sandalwood are the sculpted wood frame for this work of art. It will leave you intoxicated.

Lion of his family’s thriving 249-year firm, yet always a worker among his workers, Olivier CREED sought the right inspiration for the uncommon year 2009. His mind turned to 15th century Florence in Italy, where artists and innovators lit a bright new flame of beauty and culture, sparking a Renaissance of art always growing in value, even today.

Acqua Fiorentina is visually pink like gently stained glass or sun on the Arno River at morning. It is also pink for health. A portion of proceeds from U.S. sales of the fragrance during October 2009 supported the National Breast Cancer Coalition Fund.

The bottle’s accents recall Renaissance style. Silver flowers etched on the bottle’s sides evoke the beauty and prosperity of Florence -- and wisely spent Florentine wealth, which created a legacy of art that endures today. It is as beautiful as the scent and the woman who wears it.

Olivier CREED, sixth generation master perfumer, with his son, Erwin, offers a fragrance of lasting artistry and permanent value: CREED Acqua Fiorentina for women, now at CREED at 794 Madison Avenue in New York City, www.creedboutique.com, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman and their websites, select Saks Fifth Avenue stores, select Nordstrom stores and select Bloomingdale’s stores (1 ounce, $130).

CREED (www.creedboutique.com) is the world’s only privately held luxury fragrance dynasty. Founded in 1760 and passed from father to son since then, CREED has served more than 10 royal houses, heads of state, leading artists, business leaders and renowned athletes for 249 years. CREED is based in Paris.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
