Clive Christian
A fragrance with a classical DNA and a century old tradition. This is precisely because it is created according to formula and methods originally used by Crown Perfumery. All ingredients are strictly vegetable in order to perpetuate a lasting formula of fragrance.
Inside its verdant bottle originally designed in the momentous year of its name, 1872 for Women houses an effervescent rose whose clean, fresh and green notes burst forth as if from a popped champagne bottle. Interestingly, for a perfume named after the past, 1872 for Women recalls nothing of rose's usual conservative and stodgy reputation. This is a young and fresh rose, with top notes such as bergamot, tangerine and lemon and a light chypre dry down of patchouli, moss, cedar, sandalwood and musk.
A sheer and fresh Rose de Mai, whose green facets are pushed to the fore by lily of the valley glimmers at the heart of 1872 for Women. Also known as the painter’s rose, this precious flower blooms only for three weeks in Grasse, France, and it takes 170 heads of Rose de Mai for just one drop of 1872 for Women. With intense projection and longevity, 1872 belies its central flower’s poetically short life. Hesperidic, clean and cheerful, 1872 is a jolt for the senses.
1872 For Women by Clive Christian is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women. 1872 For Women was launched in 1872. Top notes are Bergamot, Amalfi Lemon, Rosemary, Tangerine, Pineapple and Blueberry. Middle notes are Lily of the Valley, Violet, Osmanthus, Freesia, Rose, Jasmine and Orchid. Base notes are Oakmoss, Virginia Cedar, Musk, Sandalwood, Guaiac Wood and Patchouli.

Absolutely love it - fresh smelling. Super pretty and long lasting
Looking at the scent profile while comparing against how this perfume sits on my skin I pick up the bergamot/lemon citrus as well as, I believe, rosemary, as well for the top notes. The heart notes are strongly floral with violet, rose, and orchid as the main scents I notice. The base notes have a green woodsy scent, maybe oakmoss and cedar. It settles into a scent I would compare to liken to a mature clean floral leaning scent. This may not appeal to a younger crowd but I find it pleasant on my skin. Longevity is lacking, imo. Application is strong but within 10-15 minutes it is fairly subtle and almost non-existent at about 1-2 hours.
Smells nice, but not long lasting.
It doesn’t smell bad, but it definitely isn’t my favorite. It is not for me.
Absolutely unwearable. It is strong but it's a strong bug spray. Sadly, this was an exchange and I can't exchange it for something else.
The best perfume I have ever tried. It’s absolutely beautiful. It was kind of a lucky dip random add to my subscription too! The bottle is deceiving as I usually go for the feminine type of bottles as I like feminine scents. This perfume is super feminine. I love love love
Love it.
This perfume smells clean, fresh, floral and slightly powdery, I don’t get very much fruit if any at all. It does smell classy. I’d wear alone and layered. The longer I wore it the more it grew on me. Thinking about buying full size.
I usually don’t like rose or floral based scents. This one is not overly floral at all. I definitely like it, will use the sample, but I don’t think it’s worth the money being charged for the entire bottle. Longevity is not there for that price!
Pretty citrus, floral. Not much to dislike. I did not find it really masculine, but I do think a male could wear this as well. I like it and will use up my decant, but it is not full bottle worthy.
Very fresh, I like it a lot
Very masculine! Reminds me of Jade East aftershave from the 70's. I returned it.
It smells delicious not to overpowering but is elegant and gives business woman vibes. I absolutely love it!
Very very fresh and pleasant!!! It dries down pretty nicely and you only need two sprays
It's a nice scent but not for me.
I picked this based on reviews saying it smells like ck one. I don’t get that at all. To me it smells like pledge furniture polish. Not my favourite but will persevere and see if it grows on me.
The scent was just heavier than I thought.
Love it
Fabulous spring/summer scent!
I love love love. I’m an early 30 year old woman and I get so many compliments on this fragrance. People always ask what I’m wearing. Doesn’t matter the occasion you can wear this and still stand out in the room. It goes on strong and slow fades but still lingers. Get this ! If you can afford it buy the bottle !
Smells like old money. Also since this perfume is literally from 1872, I think it's more that CK One smells like this, in other words CK One is the knock-off. 1872 is a complex scent, with lots of perfectly blended notes. The citrus/bergamot/woods notes all make this more unisex, it is not a girly fragrance, and definitely not a blind buy (which is what scentbox is for). But on my skin it smells girly, and it is one of the rare floral gourmand fragrances that work on me. I'm going to see how often I'm in the mood to wear this before I buy a full bottle. But I can't fault the execution of this perfume, it is top quality and elegant.
Fresh and crisp. Reminds me of CK one for sure. On me the longevity is short. Under an hour. I like the scent though.
For a split second I thought maybe I should return it, after all other Platinum fragrances left me completely wowed. However, this is a very delicate nice smell, ideal for the spring and summer around the corner. I agree it's similar to CK One but this feels classier, not an old scent at all, specially when we are looking for hhot weather fragrances. This would make a nice work scent. So why do I deduct one star? Well, as I've said unlike other platinum fragrances I wasn't head over heels for this one. I wouldn't buy the bottle, I feel it is too expensive for what it delivers.
Smells good. Lasts long. Smells like CK One. Light and fresh
It's a soft scent. Reminiscent of Tiffany, but more subtle.
I don't like the smell at all.
Smells lovely, lemony undertone but 10 mins later no sign of it.
This is a beautiful , rich fragrance. One should not overspray it because it is pretty strong. It leans a bit unisex for me and is more of a fall season fragrance.
I love this scent, a little goes a long way, I would wear it in an office setting. I would wear to a evening out, and I would also wear to a business meeting. The fragrance isn't old, its very classy, and mature. If you want to smell like a teen girl, or party girl, looking to get wasted, this is not for you. Not Everyone can achieve the class, and standard to wear mature scents. Floral Fruity and classic.
Powdery, citrusy, fruit, with a tiny floral hint.
Doesn't linger not what I expected. disappointed.
I’m thinking of exchanging it because it’s really nothing like the listed notes and smells very similar to Ck One. It smells like cheap room spray or pine air freshener. I’m once again thankful for scent box because it saved me from a pricey blind buy.
I absolutely LOVE this scent. The downside is that for the cost, it should last a lot longer than 30mins-1hr. It's a beautiful gourmand scent that doesn't feel too childish. There's a tiny hint of citrus that makes it feel a little more mature (in a good way). The scent is perfect, but the longevity is not.
Smells classy and classic, clean and no-nonsense. I get compliments when I wear it, and it wears well. It's quickly becoming one of my new favorites, especially when I can't decide. It's an easy pick because it's simple and delicate. It completes any outfit. A little on the mature side, but not in an overbearing way.
My favorite long lasting. Clean scent
Clean but romantic smell. Soapy soft but in a good way. The smell is like a good romantic clip of the movie notebook… in the best way possible , I wish it would last longer
This is an older smelling, refined scent. Not the fruity, fun, sophisticated scent I was hoping for. ?? It smells good, just doesn’t fit my personality.
I love this! It’s fruity citrusy musky all at once great for summer time, I wish it wasn’t so expensive I’d buy me a bottle.
Beautiful summer scent.
Beautiful bright cirrus summer scent.
Powdery old lady scent. Did not like. Sent back.
Nice, clean fresh scent. It does not smell like Creed Aventus Her, but I would put it in the same scent category. If you like one, you will like the other.
This is one of two fragrances I’ve sent back and the other one got a reprieve. It smells like bug spray on my and I had to scrub to get it off.
Meh. Smells like soap at first but the dry down is better and nice and earthy. Only lasts about 2 hours.
This leans very masculine. It doesn't smell bad but it's definitely not for me
This scent is interesting. It's not for me though. It smells soapy when you first put it on. Dry down is a lot nicer. It has a warm, citrusy, floral scent. I don't hate it, but it's still going to be returned. Seems to last about 3-4 hours.
This is a beautiful, elegant scent! I love it! I believe it will definitely get some attention.
