Clive Christian Perfume Cosmos Flower is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Cosmos Flower opens with Mandarin, Pink Pepper, Apple, and Rum, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet, Ylang-Ylang, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Cacao Pod, Leather, Amber, and Benzoin. Clive Christian Perfume's Cosmos Flower carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This scent is seriously polarising; some claim it's a beautifully blended, seductive masterpiece, while others are left wondering about the hefty price tag for something so 'common' and even unpleasant on their skin. Best to sample first, obviously.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Cosmos Flower opens with a boozy splash of rum and bright apple, quickly introducing a juicy plum note. The heart reveals a rich floral bouquet of jasmine and osmanthus. As it settles, gourmand notes of cacao pod and warm caramel emerge, underpinned by soft leather and amber, creating a deep, sweet, and fruit-forward dry-down.
