No. 1 Clive Christian for men


No. 1 Clive Christian for men

Created with no cost spared, No 1 represents the ‘non plus ultra’ of British luxury. It uses the rarest and most precious ingredients, both for the fragrance as well as the bottle. Decorated with a white brilliant-cut diamond, its bottle makes No 1 the ultimate luxury perfume.
Available in luxury pure parfum bottle of 30ml and 50 ml eau de parfum.
In collaboration with Baccarat, the most prestigious name in the world of crystal, the famous English designer offers a No 1 limited edition: a matchless crystal bottle, enriched with an 18-carat gold inset containing a 5-carat brilliant cut diamond. A magnificent celebration of the fragrance and of the bottle: so magnificent that it received the UK FIFI award for special packaging in 2006.
No. 1 was launched in 2001.

Main Accords: woody, floral, powdery, yellow floral, warm spicy.

Personal review: It's luxurious, sumptuous, pleasantly present though not overwhelming. Is it worth its high price? It depends at which angle you take your point of view. For those who can not afford it, it sure is undecently high priced. For those who can afford it, it's worth every penny. 
One of the best fragrances I have in my extensed collection. Only to be beaten by its closest "relative": the No.1 Jubilee.
