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 bottles of 30ml and eau de parfum of 50ml.

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.

It is so loud for the first hour on my skin, it HURTS to put my nose up close to smell it.

“Big White Flower Syndrome” X “Big White Powder Syndrome” X 10—there are no edges to defend against the whiteness of this whale.

I would give this scent one star without a second thought, and consider rating it no stars, to punish it for its over-the-topness, except for the drydown phase. After about 90 minutes, the powder element cuts down to about half, the floral element dies down to about a third, and finally the woods get the all-clear, coming out of hiding to give some structure. What emerges from the all-white-everywhere of it all is a highly refined pineapple element.

I say pineapple, and I don’t like smelling like fruit. But imagine saying “pineapple” to yourself as you don a blue jeans jacket. That is the smell of the fresh flesh. Now imagine saying “pineapple” as you slip naked into a chinchilla floor-length coat someone is holding open for you. This is THAT pineapple. Perfectly, perfectly soft, perfectly smooth.

I’ve worn #1 a half-dozen times, and I’ve blacked out what it smells like when you first put it on—it’s just too traumatic. But I remember this pineapple powder drydown. Without loving it, it is a smell that spontaneously makes me say the word “magnificent” every time I think of it or breathe it in.

Don't love it nor do I hate it. Rather I am indifferent. There is nothing special about this. Smells like old style women's perfume something dior, chanel or givenchy would make.
