Among them, a new eau de cologne called Thirdman quietly stands out. Thirdman’s taciturn packaging is just a fragment of the gender-neutral musk’s mysterious identity. From its countenance to its contents, Thirdman is filled with secrets.

Creed

Green Irish Tweed

For a lucky few, the scent of St. Patrick’s Day is not just spilled beer. Creed presented the grand marshals of St. Patrick’s Day parades in Manhattan, Chicago and Boston with bottles of Green Irish Tweed, the famed sandalwood, ambergris, verbena and iris blend. Bestselling author and Manhattan parade grand marshal Mary Higgins Clark, Chicago mayor and grand marshal Richard M. Daley, and Boston grand marshal John Zebris received the gifts. Clark penned a thank-you note that will become part of Creed’s 251-year archive. Fun fact: she’s the top selling fiction author in France.
