Hot Clive Christian 1872 Masculine

1872 Masculine is an aromatic, citrus, spicy scent created for Men in 2001 by perfumer Geza Schoen.

Review

This scent is fresh and spicy, almost leaning fougere in style, but never quite going there. Its herbaceous notes are blended with citrusy Petitgrain, making it a perfect everyday scent. It can be worn to the office, and will work well for days when you want to make an impression, but is best suited for casual days enjoying the sunshine. It has good longevity, and is great for the Spring and Summer months. It is comparable to Acqua di Parma Colonia.

Inspiration

1872 Masculine takes its name from the year that Queen Victoria gave her approval for the use of her crown’s image in the creation of The Crown Perfumery bottles.

Notes

Citrusy Petitgrain and juicy Peach brighten an aromatic and spicy blend of Lavender, Rosemary, Black Pepper, and Nutmeg. Jasmine and Neroli add a slight sweetness, while Clary Sage and Musk keep the herbaceous, earthy vibe thriving. Cedarwood and Sandalwood add depth and a subtle warmth that boosts the lighter notes.
