Personally, I feel the gender binary delineation for this and its sister fragrance is unnecessary - the 'female' version is much more appealing in my humble opinion - less stuffy, cloying, more green, citrus fresh and redolent of a beautiful summer morning when the fragrance you most covet is one that reflects beautiful greens and vibrant citruses - try both and see what you think...
The longevity is pretty bad. You have to reapply it every 4 hours.
I've ordered all 3 Clive Christian perfumes directly from CC website. It was my more expensive order of perfumes (EUR 1,500). I did it after I've got the samples of them from Bologna antique niche perfumery after I've ordered there CC 1872 perfume 30ml in crystal bottle (another EUR 650). When you wear the perfume of CC for the first time, you don't really like it (it's very different from all other perfumes, where the head notes are very pleasant and you immediately buy them, but after an hour, or even worse: after you've purchased it, you understand that you don't really like the main notes). Like I told here, CC perfumes are really different: you start to love them after you are wearing them at least for 30 min. So, ask for samples and try to wear them for a whole day, then decide if you like them. I'm sure you will!
Clive Christian 1872:
After testing once wanted to buy the legendary cologne. Green smells too much I'm not interested, but decided I liked to come in 1872!
After 10 years and after that I was at the Hermes boutique, I realized that Voyage d'Hermes similar to 1872 but with prices around $ 100 and not $ 800!
1872 cologne is balanced and green-peppery smell and longevity is pretty good, but that comes to those who are collectors cologne and perfumes like everyone to collect!
If you have not test it have not lost much.
Can cologne similar to the price it can find much cheaper.
I found it haphazardly in Harvey Nichols here in Ankara.
It plays on my wrist and I found it ordinary in my taste. It's just a routine Middle Eastern fragrances but maybe for an European nose it be a masterpiece.
And I don't understand how this dark and heavy smell with that warm and gourmand patter, can be citrus aromatic!
It's well blended and smells incense but in a soft way.
Doesn't waste your value, if you crazy about it, better to steal it, you'll regret for the price you paid!
1872 was describe to me by the fragrance sales person I have been going to for the past 4 years as "a refreshing, easy-to-wear perfume for every day and all occasions."
It is a masterpiece! If you want a true perfume and willing to pay $310 to $850 for a bottle. I will begin saving up for this one.
From the very first spray, you will be sent on a journey of citrus, green and spice notes. Every time you smell it, you will say: "this is what a true purfume is all about." Each note develops and blend with the previous one.
The perfume stays very close to the skin making it good for "every day and any occasion."
