In England, the response to this perfume was so strong that University Students actually composed a piece of Music in tribute to it!
Long Live the Queen….
X marks the return of those lush gorgeous fragrances. Perfumes that aren’t afraid to be noticed. Rich, evocative, musky, and sweet but not too sweet, Christian Clive X smells like sex and money. Who doesn’t love these two things?!
At $350 a bottle and up, this may be out of the price range of most. There are perfume sites that offer samples and smaller amounts for much much less. Many swear by Christian’s #1, but this was the scent that made me echo the words of my English mother-in-law after smelling her favorite perfume on her own wrist, “I think I’m falling in love with m’self!”

))))
when i was purchasing this perfume the saleperson(guy),he sad to me:
there is no middle with this perfume,whether you love it or you hate it!
and Yes,i agree with him 100% .
even here on MUA,by reading some reviews,you can tell some of them are realy in love ,some are just not.
The only dropdown to this perfume,that’s damn expensive.
I also tried the legendary #1 and 1872,and to be honest i wasn’t impressed at all nd thank God:))),so less spendig money on perfumes:)
p.s. it’s very normal & am glad that some of us like some perfumes ,while the others don’t….imagine,if we would ALL smell the same!!!!!???????????

X is an extremely ladylike fragrance that takes the modern fruity-floral into new and uncharted territories. Fruits and florals aren’t new to perfumery, they simply seem new because they are so overly and poorly exploited. What makes X interesting is that it fuses fruit with floral in the “modern” way (the earlier reference to Gucci Rush is not so far off the mark as it would appear) and not, for instance, in the manner of Mitsouko.
X begins with a clean, en vogue hairspray accord, hence earlier reviewer’s remark about Rush. This note, which I find bothersome, announces that X is not one of those “parfums historiques” that would be found in a grandmother’s toilette. Like the note or not, it is worth enduring in order to experience what comes immediately after: an astoundingly realistic golden peach colored and blushed as delicately and invitingly as one in a Japanese watercolor, with each layer of scent–the stone, the flesh, and the rosy-blushed outer skin–delineated. The peach more than makes up for the slightly unfortunate opening, which also contains a hot coriander note.
The primary floral revealed in X is muguet, which marries perfectly with the peach without transcending it. The two components float together with each undulating in and out of prominence. This is heady stuff, but it is intoxicating. For some reason, at this center stage X reminds me of something Bond No. 9 would like to make (perhaps it is the very modernity of it, and the implied urbanity)…
Secondary floral is a sweet and tender jasmine, the first of the season. The jasmine meshes so well with the muguet that they become one flower, a new and mesmerizing hybrid. Rose is so very subtle that it too simply becomes part of this hybrid, and at this part of the development that pesky hairspray note is still in evidence, but quietly as an upstroke through the bouquet.
Hours later, a new fragrance emerges. This is the base, in which a warm white musk begins to throb. I am particularly sensitive to musk and find it unwearable in most instances, the exceptions being few and far between. One of these is X, and the other is Clair de Musc.
Sweet patchouli–if you can imagine the leaves steeped in the finest vanilla–is next, and it is conjoined to the musk in the most sublime fashion, as a marriage of opposing forces that works by virtue of perfect balance. Still, the peach remains as the most tenacious note, swirled throughout in a glorious rosy/golden ribbon.
The cost of X is dreadful. There’s no way around it, and yet it is absolutely worth sampling to experience the high level of the perfumer’s art when working in the same genre that has been so badly maligned by cheap synthetic and poor mixology.
