More about Clive Christian No. 1 Feminine
Clive Christian No. 1 Feminine is the crowning fragrance of the Clive Christian Original Collection, and No. 1 Feminine by Clive Christian is a lavish oriental floral for women, first composed in 2001 and reborn as the house's magnum opus. The top notes are succulent apricot, white peach, plum and Amalfi lemon, lifted by cardamom and paprika, with bergamot and pineapple adding brightness. It then unfolds into a vintage floral heart of iris, rose, jasmine, carnation and ylang-ylang, with orchid. The base notes are a precious blend of Madagascan vanilla, sandalwood, tonka bean, benzoin, amber, musk and Virginia cedar, which gives this British luxury parfum a warm, powdery, unmistakably opulent drydown. Fall and winter lead the seasons, with evening and night as the main hours, and it suits wearers who want a rich, vintage-style floral for cooler months.
