Our scent spies recently spotted the First Lady purchasing the fragrance at Nordstrom in Pentagon City. When interviewing Monsieur Creed in 2007, he explained: "The very idea of Love in White is to be upon the high seas when the sails lift and fill with the wind that moves one, not just in a physical sense but also emotionally. Yet, I wanted to communicate this on a global basis, so I chose ingredients from each continent: rice husk from Asia, magnolia from the Americas, orange zest from Europe, and so on. The sea itself is a factor in the fragrance. And what is the result? A universal scent or a scent appreciated universally. I gave the first bottle of this fragrance to be sent to America to [then] First Lady, Laura Bush. Today, it is the best selling fragrance for CREED."
Proving there are no politics when it comes to choosing a beautiful perfume.
