The Story

Launched in 2017 by Clive Christian, a brand that traces its roots back to the celebrated Crown Perfumery established in London in 1872, 1872 Orris is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women. The composition opens with bright citrus notes of grapefruit and bergamot, which give way to an elegant heart of iris and magnolia. This floral bouquet is grounded by the earthy warmth of vetiver and sandalwood, while powdery accents of amber and tonka bean add a subtle sweetness. 1872 Orris encapsulates the brand's commitment to luxury and tradition, with each note harmonizing to create an enduring scent.

Application Tips

Apply two sprays to pulse points for a balanced wear. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting; allow it time to settle into its floral and woody base for a more nuanced experience.

The story behind the bottle.

The quiet grandeur of a Victorian parlor, where the sun filters through lace curtains and the air is perfumed with fresh flowers and warm spices.
