History

James Henry Creed founded the House of Creed in London in 1760 as a tailoring establishment.[1] It rose to fame during the middle of the 19th century under Henry Creed as tailors and habit makers for the fashionable dandy Count d'Orsay, Queen Victoria, and the Empress Eugénie, who issued the firm of Creed & Cumberland a Royal Warrant for tailoring articles.[2] Its breakthrough success came in the mid-1980s with the avant-garde fougere Green Irish Tweed which was composed by Olivier Creed and Pierre Bourdon who would later create the closely related Davidoff Cool Water, the paradigmatic scent of the 1990s.[3] Creed also has other high-profile creations in its catalog such as Angelique Encens which was originally created in 1933 for the Bishop of Paris.[citation needed][4]
