The Story

C for Women by Clive Christian was launched in 2010 as a sophisticated blend of white floral and woody accords. The composition opens with the warm embrace of cognac and marigold, followed by the delicate notes of narcissus and geranium. As it evolves, tuberose and jasmine take center stage, mingling with violet and ylang-ylang to create a lush, floral bouquet. The base notes of leather, amber, sandalwood, and vanilla add depth and warmth, ensuring that C for Women remains an enduring presence throughout the day.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance to pulse points and allow it to settle for a few minutes before heading out. The cognac and marigold notes are bright but fleeting, so the woody and floral base will carry you through the day. Avoid heavy layering, as C for Women projects well and builds gradually on the skin.

The story behind the bottle.

The crisp air of a London street in early autumn, where the scent of leather and amber blends with the subtle sweetness of tuberose and jasmine.
