Description
Description
1872 For Women is Clive Christian's bright citrus-floral revival of a recipe first created for the Crown Perfumery in 1872. Rebuilt by the house and re-released as part of the modern Clive Christian range, it opens with bergamot, Amalfi lemon and juicy pineapple, blooms into a jasmine-rose-orchid heart, and settles into an oakmoss-cedar-sandalwood base. Reviewers describe it as a sophisticated, fresh floral that reads especially well in warm weather.
