Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - No. 1 EDP
Divisive, overpriced, and often misunderstood. Clive Christian No. 1 is either a pioneering masterpiece of refined florals and woods, or a dated, powdery soap bar - there's no middle ground. Its luxury is undeniable, but so is its controversial opening.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Noir Endurance EDT
Noir Endurance is a divisive beast: some claim it's a stellar Tom Ford dupe with beastly projection and longevity, while others are left with zero performance and a barely-there skin scent within minutes. For the price, it's a gamble worth taking if you're feeling lucky.

Season and Occasion Fit

No. 1

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With its significant sillage and mature, complex profile, No. 1 is best reserved for formal events and intimate evenings. It's too grand for casual wear and might be overwhelming for an office setting, demanding a refined environment to be truly appreciated.

Noir Endurance

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This fragrance's warm, gourmand profile and potential for strong projection make it less suitable for direct office wear. It truly shines in intimate date settings or formal evening events, with some reviewers even suggesting it's perfect for nightclubs due to its rich, inviting scent.
