    What do reviewers say about 1828 and Spice and Wood?

    This is not a crowd-pleaser. The eucalyptus opening will polarize, and the pepper-heavy heart does not apologize for itself. If you want a polite citrus freshie, look elsewhere.1828
    This is vintage Creed execution at its finest, the 2010 release feels like a love letter to old-world perfumery. The woods and spices feel truly timeless.Spice and Wood
