The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014 by Clive Christian, No. 1 Imperial For Women is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that embodies the brand’s commitment to luxury and tradition. The composition opens with bright fruits and warm spices, creating an initial burst of vibrancy. This gives way to a heart of flowers and woody notes, which blend seamlessly into a musky base that adds depth and warmth. Clive Christian, founded in 1999, carries the legacy of Crown Perfumery, granted the royal crown by Queen Victoria for its excellence, making No. 1 Imperial For Women a proof of this rich heritage.

How to wear it

Apply No. 1 Imperial For Women to pulse points for a lasting warmth that builds subtly over time. It’s best suited for daytime wear as the fruity and floral top notes provide a bright introduction before settling into its musky base.
