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.
