Summer-fresh air with Creed room spray

Tropical mimosa was the inspiration behind Creed’s Mimosa Soleil room spray. Known for exquisite personal fragrances and candles, the Paris-based company turned its nose in a new olfactory direction. Mimosa Soleil began as a candle created by the fragrance dynasty’s youngest nose, 28-year-old Erwin Creed. Now the light, elegant scent, a blend of mimosa blooms and Swiss talc, is captured in a luxury spray suitable for homes, hotel rooms and cars. It’s $142 at Neiman Marcus and select Saks stores. Other room sprays inspired by Creed’s hand-poured beeswax candles are peony-scented Cocktail de Pivoines and Pekin Imperial, a fusion of incense, ginger, fragrant woods and five rare teas. Green-minded consumers will be delighted to know that Creed eschewed chemical aerosol for recycled glass bottles topped with natural spray pumps.
