Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - V for Women EDP
V by Clive Christian is a polarising beast, a dark, complex chypre that challenges expectations. It's not for the faint of heart, or those seeking a sweet floral everyday scent - expect an assertive, almost brooding character that demands attention, for better or worse.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Clyvez V EDP
Clyvez V chases Clive Christian V For Women - that lush white-floral bouquet of jasmine, rose and orange blossom over a classic mossy chypre base. The sophisticated, womanly mood comes through, but it renders flatter with softer projection, sketching the luxe original's rich depth rather than fully matching it.
