Unique Scents For Spring - Citrus Bigarrade

As warmer weather nears, it's almost time to switch colognes. Gone are the musky wood spice scents that compliment the winter, as we warmly welcome soft citrus scents into our repertoire.

This spring, if you find yourself looking for a unique scent with an even more unique history, you might want to take a peek at Creed`s Citrus Bigarrade. Citrus Bigarrade translates as “bitter citrus” – but played its part in sweet love.

In the 1930s, King Edward VII gave up his throne to marry an American divorcee. The couple, known as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, shared a fragrance – none other than CB. This historical footnote further compliments base notes of Ambergris, middle notes of Neroli, and top notes of Bergamont.

Citrus Bigarrade can`t be found online, but is available at Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, and Saks Fifth Avenue.
