Royal Warrant Austria Hungary

Royal sensation Empress Sisi
granted CREED this imperial warrant
with her Emperor husband

A glamorous royal warrant in CREED’s 250-year archive came from Empress Elisabeth (“Sisi”) and her husband, Emperor Franz-Josef, a power couple who united Austria and Hungary into an empire they ruled jointly in the 1800′s. Throughout her long and eventful reign, Empress Sisi riveted the public with her dramatic, incomparable beauty and style.

Fine fragrance was, of course, part of her unique presence. For her, CREED made the floral masterpiece Fantasia de Fleurs, still available today.

For her husband, the emperor, CREED made Santal Imperial, a masculine statement in finest sandalwood still offered to CREED’s discerning clients.
