Clive Christian ohhh Blonde Amber? No AMBERWOOD!!!
How do I start? The best way is with a little back story. I tried to get to grips with the Clive Christian brand and of course ordered a bottle of Blonde Amber, the fragrance on Parfumo that everyone is talking about. It arrived, I tested it and yes, it was good. So the brand made me more curious. The next in line was Hedonistic. When I saw the scent, I thought Bor cool, I have to have it, so I ordered it. When it arrived, it came with a sample of Amberwood and what can I say... I was hooked... When I sprayed it on for the first time, I thought "ok, quite nice" but as interesting as its fragrance brother, nope. But I kept giving it a chance and thank God the tide turned in the drydown. It was just so beautifully elegant, mature and absolutely classy. A few more tests followed and I liked it so much that I just wanted to smell it. So the question from the headline came up again... Blonde Amber or Amberwood? And I tell you quite clearly Amberwood. Of course Blonde Amber is a good fragrance, but I think Amberwood is unfairly overshadowed by its fragrance brother. I would recommend everyone to just test it and then decide which Clive you like more, that's what I did and I have no regrets, on the contrary, I thought it would be the fragrance that everyone would like but no, it's the fragrance that beat its (big) brother for me.
I can say that it's not as mega potent or as space-consuming as some others. But anyone who walks past you will notice it and think to themselves "interesting scent, I wonder what that is" and that's quite enough. I myself perceive it for 6-7 hours and up close even 8 hours or longer, so of course it's not a long-lasting monster, but most Clive fragrances aren't, so that's completely ok.
I don't think I need to say much about the bottle - a 10/10 is as good as it gets, of course the quality speaks for itself.
Is there anything negative? Unfortunately, yes... The prices for Clive are a bit enormous and you shouldn't start with the series straight away if you can have fun elsewhere. But if you've got a bit of money to spare or say I'd like to treat myself to it, go ahead, it's definitely something you should at least have tried out.
So that was my first review, I hope I haven't bored you too much and thank you for your attention. Perhaps I was able to help one or two of you who were faced with the same decision as I was.
