CREED’s Legendary Letters

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010
Letter from Helen Gurley Brown

A letter of praise from legendary
editor Helen Gurley Brown in 2006

As CREED celebrates its 250th anniversary in 2010, a search of its archives reveals correspondence with legends of the 21st, 20th, 19th and 18th centuries.

One modern-day legend is the famed international editor of Cosmopolitan Magazine, Helen Gurley Brown. A trailblazer for women in their careers and elsewhere, Ms. Brown for decades has personified the glamour, independence and success of a national — and international — magazine editor who stays on the cutting edge of all trends. For this reason, it was CREED’s pleasure to send Ms. Brown a debut bottle of CREED Original Santal in 2006. She very kindly sent CREED a note that brought with it all of her unique style, energy and sophistication.

As CREED’s 250th anniversary approaches in November 2010, special activities are underway at the world’s only luxury fragrance dynasty passed from father to son in an unbroken line since 1760.

Paris-based CREED starts the celebration in the U.S. with the exclusive, American launch of a spectacular, new fragrance called Aventus, inspired by the very idea of success. Aventus is a masterwork already being enjoyed by leaders in politics, sports, music and film. Aventus is available on this site and soon at Neiman Marcus coast to coast, Bergdorf Goodman and the Saks Fifth Avenue flagship store in New York City.

CREED began its 250th year by opening its only North American boutique at 794 Madison Avenue at 67th Street in New York City (1-877-CREED 44) and displaying there for the public some of CREED’s correspondence with legends and VIPs over the centuries.

CREED also launched this site to mark the anniversary year.
