X For Men

Se siente como un aroma actual de crema corporal o desodorante de cosmética masculina aunque se creó en el 2001. Cremosa, ambarada, aterciopelada, cerosa, embriagante, acanelada y con aromas de maderas añejas, sin tonos sintéticos de habatonga y con fondos muy al fondo de aroma floral carnoso. Los tonos musgosos y de piña frescos le dan un apoyo aireando la mezcla densa pero no pesada, que te embuelven suave y refinadamente. Sin estridencias ni proyección fulgurante que quiera llamar la atención, simplemente su aroma se impone al corporal casi fundiéndose en el, sin crear frondosidad desgradable sino que parece aprovecharse de algún tono de agrado. Comprendo que haya personas que dejen de sentirla porque se funde en el ambiente sin imposiciones ni estridencias dándole calidez. Su aroma se adueña de forma suave(y repetiré mucho lo de "suave" porque es lo que mejor define a este perfume: suave y fundente). Personalmente parece que en sus ingredientes estuviera presente el cardamomo, pero no está declarado en su composición. Aromatiza la ropa con clase y con un muy buen gusto peculiar, agradable y adictivo. No es un aroma a ropa limpia jabonoso actual, pero parece un suavizante misterioso y con una oscuridad cálida de principio a fin, que produce sensaciones relajantes. (Mi aroma preferido para sentirlo suavemente en las mantas de invierno). Pero el aroma perfecto no existe y por tanto sólo le encuentro un defecto y es que hasta que seca y se asienta, en piel y ropa, se perciven notas y aromas parecidos ligeramente entre el vino y aliño de aceitunas. Este aroma va desapareciendo en el asentado de la fragancia, haciéndola cada vez más cremosa y amaderada con juguetonas notas limpias, que participan con muy buen gusto creando sensaciones de opulencia y clase. Parece una fragancia para disfrutarla sin prisas, de forma comedida, empezando por una salida muy distinta a las actuales citricas que predominan el mercado. La salida, es oscura y densa con una explosión de todas notas al unísono que se sienten como un cuero fresco empolvado y de una expansión muy contrastada de notas contrarias que acaban por unirse en un agridulce baile brillante, como anunciando el tipo de aroma masculino y maduro que es. Esta sensación de salida explosiva, es corta y en el secado es cuando según la superficie donde se aplique, es cuando se va descubriendo, un perfume de golosas y suntuosas maderas oscuras aromaticas, acompañadas de fundentes notas de piel cálida. La mezcla se siente cada vez más uniforme tras la primera media hora y cada vez es más dificil identificar los ingredientes que empezaron tan contrastados y que ahora transmiten un aroma en conjunto balanceado al estilo fougere, que con el transcurrir de las horas, se hace más agradable profundo que baja su intensidad puliendo asperezas, bajando en acidez y subiendo en notas ambaradas y terrosas, para descubrir su fondo de notas, rico en matices aromaticos y amaderados, con reminiscentes notas florales sedosas. X FOR MEN Es claramente un perfume muy agradable...Pero caro....incomprensiblemente caro....🤷 Que te hace pregungarte porqué existen estas mezclas de perfume tan caras. Y la solución a esta pregunta es fácil: se paga por exclusividad y un alto precio hace que esté al alcance de pocos, por tanto es exclusivo (la pescadilla que se muerde la cola🤷) Realmente existen mejores y más agradables perfumes con el precio real de coste mas el margen del 50% por menos de 30€. Todos nos dejariamos dar una bofetada si fuese la bofetada más cara de la historia y si nos la diese alguien con fama y prestigio y nos prometiesen tener clase y buen gusto, haciéndonos sentir únicos y por enima del resto. Y eso es por una bofetada.... ¿Qué darias por un perfume que huele medianamente bien?😬 Si has llegado hasta el final de mi reseña y eres de los que les sobra el dinero porque las necedidades las tienes cubiertas..... X for men de Clive Cristian es tu perfume.... 😊 o cualquier otro de Clive, porque no ha hecho un buen perfume sino que hace muchísimos.... para todos los gustos🤷

''Clive Christian X For Men ''– Elegant Elimde hem esansiyel olarak başladığım bir keşfin, hem de sonrasında orijinaline ulaştığım çok değerli bir parfüm var. Bu koku benim için sıradan bir parfüm değil. 2024 yılının başlarında, esansiyel formda keşfettiğim bu koku, yaklaşık iki yıl sonra orijinal haliyle koleksiyonuma katıldı. Bu süreç, onun benim için değerini daha da artırdı. Bu parfümün bende taşıdığı anlam oldukça özel. Tam anlamıyla elegant, centilmen ve karakter sahibi bir erkeğin kokusu. Özellikle 20 yaş üstü, duruşu olan, bulunduğu ortamda ağırlığını hissettiren erkeklere yakışacak bir parfüm. Hatta benim için bu koku, sadece bir koku da değil; sevgili eşime evlilik teklifi ederken kullandığım parfüm. Bu yüzden fazla söze gerek yok — benim hikâyemde yeri çok ayrı. Kokunun karakterine gelecek olursak; açılışı oldukça yeşil ve kahverengi tonlarda başlıyor. Notalarda resmi olarak yer almasa da, ben hafif bir dereotu hissi alıyorum. Ancak bu rahatsız edici, keskin bir dereotu değil; oldukça kontrollü ve kısa süreli. Bu his yaklaşık 1–2 dakika içinde kayboluyor. Ardından sahneye ravent giriyor ve beraberinde sıcacık bir tarçın etkisi ortamı sarıyor. Bu geçişle birlikte koku daha oturaklı ve derin bir karakter kazanıyor. Çok geçmeden olgun bir ananas ve sıcak bir sedir ağacı devreye giriyor. Bu noktadan itibaren parfümün ana karakteri oluşuyor. Tüm bu yapının içinde tarçın sürekli kendini hissettiriyor; hiçbir zaman kaybolmuyor, sadece geri planda zarifçe varlığını sürdürüyor. Kapanışa doğru sedir ağacı farklı bir boyuta evriliyor. Hafif gazlı, sarı gazozu andıran, sıcak ve içilebilir bir his bırakıyor. Bu da kokuyu tatlı bir şekilde sonlandırıyor. Kısacası bu parfüm; başlangıcıyla dikkat çeken, ortasıyla karakterini oturtan ve sonuyla akılda kalan, çok katmanlı ve duygusal değeri yüksek bir eser. . . . This is not just a fragrance I own; it is something that began as an essential oil experiment and evolved into owning the original itself. It carries a deep personal value for me. I first discovered this scent in its essential form at the beginning of 2024, and nearly two years later, I decided to add the original version to my collection. That journey alone makes it truly special. The meaning this fragrance holds for me goes beyond scent. It represents elegance, a true gentleman’s aura, and a man with presence. It is a fragrance suited for a man over his twenties — someone who carries himself with confidence and commands respect in any environment. More importantly, this is the fragrance I wore when I proposed to my beloved wife. That alone says everything; no more words are needed. When we dive into the character of the scent, the opening feels very green and slightly earthy-brown. Although it is not officially listed in the notes, I perceive a subtle hint of dill. Not sharp or overwhelming — just a gentle, fleeting touch that lasts no more than a minute or two. Soon after, rhubarb steps in, followed by a warm wave of cinnamon that wraps the entire composition. This transition brings depth and maturity to the fragrance. As it develops further, a ripe pineapple note emerges alongside a warm cedarwood accord. This is where the core identity of the fragrance settles. Throughout this phase, cinnamon never truly disappears; it remains in the background, constantly whispering its presence. Towards the dry down, the cedarwood transforms into something quite unique — slightly fizzy, reminiscent of a warm yellow soda. It feels smooth, comforting, and almost drinkable in character, leaving behind a subtly sweet and memorable finish. In essence, this fragrance is layered, expressive, and deeply personal — a scent that captures attention at the start, builds character in the heart, and leaves a lasting impression in its final moments. 10/11

An authorized CC store decided to quit carrying the brand, and they cut prices in half. Combining with some coupon codes and rewards points, I purchased 4 from the brand (1872, No. 1, Rock Rose, and X) for much more relatively reasonable prices because I doubted I'd ever get an opportunity to get shady eBay-like deals from a real boutique--no worry of authenticity or spoilage. Got this 50 mL for $132.25, normally $350. I feel like that's worth mentioning. I almost didn't buy it because I liked it least of the other 3, but I figured I'm paying Sephora/Ulta prices for one the most niche and high-end brands out there. Glad I got it; it's unique and standout. The bottle on this one isn't quite a special looking as the others, but that cap, like the rest of the, is really nice! The sprayer is also on-par with Creed, if not nicer. It's got a lot of control. This is the undoubtedly the most masculine scent that I own. It's also probably the longest lasting and probably highest sillage, too. It's like a cloud of man. Not for the faint of heart. You can't be dainty and easily pull this off. It's likable, and I think fairly versatile for most occasions in small doses. The smell is very woody with an undertone of spice that carries throughout the scent. It's maybe a little oriental. It gets better as the day goes on, becoming smoother and more likable as it develops. It got on one of my watch straps, and it lasted on there kinda as a skin scent for over a week--smelled like one of the best scents I've ever smelled in my life! It's wood, without being oud, which is really good because most people I'm around HATE oud! Would probably do best in the Fall and Winter, but I've worn this a few times this Summer, which is when I purchased it. This is the most potent fragrances I've ever owned, and it just needs a very small amount. My 1.7 oz bottle will last forever. If I ever run out, I'll buy a 10 mL directly from Clive Christian for $75--which is well worth it because you have to be so sparing in using this so you'll go through that over the course of what you'd probably do for a bottle of much larger size for that price. Would I buy it again? Definitely, especially at the steal that I got it. At $350? Honestly, maybe. It's quite unique and would last forever. 10 mL is probably the way to go, though--at least for me. 9/10 scent, 12/10 longevity--lasts forever, 10/10 sillage.

Breathtaking, signature-scent worthy creation from Geza and CC. Unlike anything you have tried until now. At first I was not convinced, the price had me skeptical so I bought a small decant from a Facebook group, wore through it, I was intrigued. I then purchased a 30ml bottle shortly after and it started growing on me. Finished that in 2 months and bought a 100ml immediately after, upon realising there is quite nothing like this, it is a masterpiece. In a couple of words: cinnamon, airy hot&cold spices, woods, some slight sweetness from amber finishing with smokiness in the base from the vetiver. However, this doesn’t do the scent justice. There are lots of small nuances from the other notes which you pick out the more you wear it. It is simple and mass-appealing enough to be appreciated by anyone at all occasions, yet all it’s extra notes and expert blending add an additional level of complexity, making an unequivocal statement and leaving a distinct impression. Lasts forever and smells expensive. Moderate silage, it won’t fill a room but it will get you noticed by people around you. A little story: I have a travel atomiser of this and I sprayed it in my friend’s bathroom before a dinnerparty at his parents place this christmas, he said the scent lingered on the walls and basin for almost a week and was quite mesmerised by it. He bought a decant from me shortly after. His parents, despite not knowing the brand, both people of significant financial means and status who I look up to, also complimented me on it when I wore X to their party. This is a testament to the quality and impression X leaves. The price is high, on par and higher than many niche houses. I have many regrets, buying scents from Roja, Creed, Fragrance du Bois, etc. but this one I do not regret for a second. The other offerings from the house are “okay”, I definitely wouldn’t purchase at their prices. This one stands in a league of its own and I cannot recommend enough to at least sample.

This is a walk through the autumn rust leaves in mid-October. An elegant, evocative fragrance, both for special occasions and for everyday wear, in cooler temperature conditions. With a woody heart, polished with cinnamon and amber, a little floral CCX is a remarkable perfume with a signature of its own, distinct and distinguished. Some say that there are many variants of this perfume and that it is not worth the price. Which variants? Maybe Vertus Monarh, but that one is way too sharp, lacking the gentle and comforting character. The essence of sophistication, CCX expresses power, gentleness, mystery and maturity. An extraordinary fragrance for the autumn days, when the leaves start to fall and the days become shorter and cooler in favor of the nights. It is very balanced, imposing but friendly at the same time, for lovers of somewhat more classic perfumes but anchored in the present. Clive Christian X represents one of the perfumes that should not be missing from a man's wardrobe. The price makes it difficult to acquire but not impossible. As for the people who complain about the very high price, there are dozens of brands that practice the same prices and get a lot of hype, but this one doesn't, why? Don t spend on ten ordinary fragrances and buy one that is worth it. After all, it is a luxury product and a brand that is not afraid that it can only be bought by a certain category of people. The same can be said about luxury cars, luxury watches that can only be bought by a certain people. Obviously, CC prices did not reflect the value either, but art is expensive. And CCX is an artistic, tasteful perfume.
