Love In White For Summer (Tester)

Love In White For Summer — Women's (Tester)

The lighter, greener, more apple-bright version of Love In White — bergamot, rose, iris, and apple, designed for warmer months and for the wearers who found the original too rich.

Launched in 2018, Love In White For Summer takes the original Love In White — Creed's "White House fragrance," worn by two First Ladies — and redirects it toward something considerably lighter, more citrus-forward, and more immediately appropriate for warm weather. The bergamot-rose-magnolia opening is clean and slightly floral without the heavier powdery density of the original. Iris and rice in the heart give the fragrance a slightly powdery, slightly clean quality that's refined without being demanding. Apple in the base is the detail that makes Summer distinctly different from the original — slightly tart, slightly bright, and surprisingly fresh as a base note rather than a sweet top note. Performance is gentle — closer to an intimate skin scent than a room-filler — which makes Love In White For Summer the Creed that's most consistently appropriate for warmer months and closer contexts.

Tester note: Manufacturer original tester — unboxed, full bottle, same formulation. Same fragrance at a lower price point for collectors and wearers who prioritize value over retail packaging.

🔺 The Scent Pyramid

Top Notes (0–15 min) Calabrian Bergamot · Bulgarian Rose · Sweet Magnolia

A clean, slightly floral, and immediately lighter opening than the original Love In White. Bergamot provides clean citrus brightness. Bulgarian rose adds a refined, slightly sweet floral quality. Magnolia contributes a clean, slightly white-floral sweetness.

Heart Notes (20 min–2 hrs) Florentine Iris · Rice · Virginia Cedar

Iris provides a slightly powdery, slightly earthy quality. Rice adds an unusual, slightly milky and clean dimension that's one of the original Love In White's signature touches, here lighter and less prominent. Virginia cedar provides dry woody structure.

Base Notes (2 hrs and beyond) Apple · Jasmine · Sandalwood · Ambergris

Apple is the detail that most clearly distinguishes Summer from the original — slightly tart, slightly bright, and genuinely refreshing as a base note. Jasmine adds floral depth. Sandalwood provides smooth warmth. Ambergris adds the characteristic Creed salty warmth. Longevity: 4 to 7 hours on most skin types; projection close to intimate throughout.

What it smells like on skin:

The bergamot-rose-magnolia opening is clean, slightly floral, and immediately more approachable than the original Love In White's more complex and more demanding character. As iris and rice develop, the fragrance takes on a slightly powdery, slightly clean quality. The apple-sandalwood base is the fresh, warm finish that makes Summer the easier and more broadly wearable version. Best in spring and summer; the lighter character is warm-weather primary.

Why People Keep Coming Back:
