The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016 by Clive Christian, X Twist Narcissus is a floral fruity fragrance created by perfumer Angela Stavrevska. The composition opens with the sweet freshness of apricot, leading into a heart of Egyptian jasmine, narcissus, and lily-of-the-valley. These delicate florals intertwine to create an enchanting bouquet that is both refined and alluring. The base notes of woodsy cashmere wood add warmth and depth, grounding the fragrance in a subtle earthiness.

How to wear it

This fragrance is best applied in light layers. The top note of apricot fades quickly, so a second application after an hour can enhance its longevity. It’s particularly effective when worn close to the skin for a personal, intimate experience.
