Creed Spice and Wood is a very good, natural scent. It is light, modern and highly ephemeral. If all fragrances are ephemeral, in that the last only so long, most Creeds, except Windsor and Royal Leather, are very short lived. This is the case with this one as well. There are a lot of mens' fragrances out there that are woody/spicy not many cost over $500. I am not sure that this one is worth it. It may be, I am just not sure, and would not, myself, spend that much.
