Crab Apple Blossom by Clive Christian opens salty and bright, with sea air, bergamot and apple blossom giving it a crisp, marine-floral start. Mojito and rhubarb keep the heart tart rather than sweet, a green, citrus-edged middle that never gets heavy. Driftwood and sandalwood settle the base into something smooth and quietly woody. Composed by Kamila Lelakova and launched in 2020, it suits men and women alike, especially anyone drawn to a fresh floral with a salty edge rather than a soft, powdery one. Voters keep it for spring and summer, worn by day and in the office. The longevity vote leans long-lasting, and the sillage vote leans strong as well. A 3ml decant carries it through an office week and shows quickly how the salt and rhubarb settle against the wood.

The community verdict
Driftwood gives Crab Apple Blossom a woody finish after sea notes, bergamot and apple blossom lead into rhubarb. Long-lasting and strong are the leading reports, with moderate next for both. Its marine, green character fits spring days; summer and the office work too.

The house
More from Clive Christian
Clive Christian is a British house whose modern collection launched in 1999, with roots in a London perfumer established in 1872. The style is rich and generous: amber, sandalwood and vanilla at the heart, bergamot, mandarin and pink pepper on top, and jasmine or rose in between. Start with X For Men, or its partner X For Women, which is fruity and sweet over woods. 1872 Masculine and 1872 For Women carry the old London date in their names. Blonde Amber is warm, woody and gently spiced, and Jump Up And Kiss Me Hedonistic adds cherry to amber and woods.
