I bought this many years ago as a backup bottle for my husband. He has decreased his use, and I have adopted this as my own. Erolfa is a very masculine scent, opening with a wallop of green spice/citrus (lemon/lime/basil). The heart is more of a mixup that smells very piney (like rosemary) with lavender. It dries down (just a little) to a rosemary/cedar - very woodsy. It makes a pretty darn strong statement all day long. No need to reapply. I enjoy wearing this as I really like the herbal tones that it carries throughout.
It’s a nice fragrance! I got a sample of one of the more recent releases and it was gone after an hour - very sad! It’s fresh and bright and I might prefer it to Green Irish Tweed, which has a similar “role” I would say
I agree with you on the longevity of several newer Creed batches. It’s a little disappointing, because they have some nice fragrances, but their formulations seem to be waning.
I did have one of the most recent “F” batches of Virgin Island Water, that was really decent
