Crab Apple Blossom

I sampled it twice before buying a FB. Absolutely love it! I will wear it somewhat during the winter because I won’t be able to hold off lol but mainly bought it for spring and summer. I find it to be more of a daytime scent. The sandalwood and driftwood are the least detected scents in this fragrance however it is there and softly shows up in the dry down to help ground the other scents. Main scent is the apple blossom, rhubarb and mojito that I smell initially which morphs into this sweet-salty-somewhat sour scent that is so yummy and ambrosial. It opens up citrusy with bergamot, then right after moves into a sweeter (apple blossom) smell which holds strong and then timidly the sandalwood and driftwood say peek-a-boo to tie it all together with a little saltiness that will remain throughout. Very feminine leaning due to the sweetness and fruity prominent apple note. Quality fragrance-it LASTS. Woke up the next morning from first time I sampled having applied at noon the day prior and it was still there. Oh and the bottle is gorgeous ❤️. Update: I put CC Crab Apple on one arm and Creed VIW on the other and nope-very different. ONLY similarity I get is the aquatic note from each. Crab Apple is a salty and sweet fruity apple base with an aquatic opening while VIW is a dryer citric and coconut being more of a fresh aquatic with slight sweetness. You can definitely own both. VIW is so clean and fresh and Crab Apple makes my mouth water and I just want to lick the salt off my skin and bite into the sweetness of an apple. Crab apple makes me think of tanned, moisturized skin in the sun. It has an edible and undeniable sexiness. It’s yummy 😋.

Wow! What a beautiful summer fragrance! It has the same island-y aquatic vibe as Creed Virgin Island Water, which is one of my all time favorites, but they're not similar. VIW leans more into the lime and coconut and smells like a zesty margarita. Crab Apple Blossom leans into a minty rhubarb angle with an initial sandalwood note that gives it an edge. The fragrance becomes more floral during the dry down. This is a very unisex fragrance that starts out more masculine in the beginning and leans feminine during the dry down. Still, I'd love to smell this on a man. I don't get a cheap air freshener impression whatsoever. It smells quality to my nose. The performance is excellent and this fragrance lingers on my skin for around 8 hours. Is it worth $450? Eh, it's hard to quantify a fragrance's worth, but I would buy a bottle one day if I could get a good sale price. That said, it's not the most groundbreaking fragrance I've ever smelt. I'm sure you could get similar scent profiles elsewhere for much less. Clive Christian is a heritage brand and they've revived themselves based on "the most expensive perfume in the world" marketing. So, while they could stand to be less expensive, they're not seeking to mass appeal. If you love it and you can't stop thinking about it, get it. If you can take it or leave it, I'd probably leave it.

Really nice, beautiful and fresh, easy reach and doesn't bother anyone but performance is subtle yet sophisticated and even classy. Opening is quite sharp fresh Bergamot with salty touch and it turns into Rhubarb and Mojito notes which both are incredible realistic, not too sour yet not sweet at all. The blend brings immediately the beautiful breeze of summer, sipping the cocktail at the beach restaurant. I wish the middle notes would have last longer. The woody base unfolds too soon and and an ultimate fresh feeling disappears however remaining without turning creamy or heavy. This is beautiful scent, I'm just addicted in Mojito vibe in this but this is not just that which means of course that scent is not linear. Based on a sample Thank you for reading, I hope my review was helpful. I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG and/or YouTube (English subtitles): @ninamariahperfumes It gives me a lot of motivation to write more. 🤗

This is something you gotta examine closely to really appreciate. Upon spraying, it opens with bergamot and marine notes. It's not mind-blowing, it's something I've smelled a lot before. As time goes, you get this fresh green note that is also creamy & somewhat floral -- really reminds me of fig even though it's not listed in the notes. During the dry down, the marine note is still there sitting in the background. As the result, you get this perfect mix of airy, green freshness and marine notes. The price is outrageous but it is really a beautiful scent. Scent: citrus + marine opening, fresh green notes that are slightly creamy & floral (very fig-like) + marine notes in the drydown. Sillage/ Performance: intimate to moderate sillage, longevity unknown as I had to take a shower 2 hours in. I imagine it would probably sit on skin for at least 6 hours. Gender: unisex Season: light airy scent that is perfect for summer.
