Royal English Leather is the first fragrance ever created by the House of CREED, commissioned by King George III in 1781.

CREED was the king's glove maker. CREED scented the king's gloves so he could rest his chin on his gloved hand and inhale the glove’s fine aroma. The king found the scent much more pleasing than the scent of the people who came to see him!

The king loved the scented gloves so much, he asked CREED to make a fragrance for his body. CREED created Royal English Leather for His Majesty –- and launched the most illustrious dynasty in the history of fragrance: CREED.
