No. 1 Feminine by Clive Christian opens with ripe apricot, peach and plum, brightened by Amalfi lemon, bergamot and a warm dust of cardamom and paprika. The heart turns properly floral: rose, jasmine, carnation, orchid and iris layered into something plush and old-fashioned in the best way. Sandalwood, vanilla, benzoin, tonka bean, amber and Virginia cedar hold the base down, giving it a rich, powdery, amber-woody finish. It is built for women who like a fragrance with real presence, worn once the temperature drops. Voters keep it for fall and winter, and for evenings running into night. The vote on longevity leans long-lasting. The sillage vote leans strong as well, so a light hand goes far. A 10ml decant is plenty to live with it through a few cold months before choosing the full bottle.

The community verdict
No. 1 Feminine moves from apricot, peach and cardamom into flowers, then sandalwood and vanilla. Staying power divides between long and exceptionally long; the largest group finds its projection strong, with room-filling next. It suits autumn evenings, and winter nights 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.
