1872 Feminine

The feminine half of the 1872 pair in the Original Collection, 1872 Feminine pays tribute, according to Clive Christian, to the year the Crown Perfumery was founded: a citrus floral of bergamot, pineapple and blueberry, where May rose meets osmanthus, jasmine and orchid over a base of patchouli, oakmoss, sandalwood and musk.

A tall bottle of emerald green glass with stepped shoulders, marked in gold and topped with a gold crown, in memory of Queen Victoria.

In the house photograph, 1872 Feminine comes in a tall rectangular bottle of dark emerald green glass, with softened corners and a thick base, whose rounded shoulders break into curved steps.

There is no label: the decoration is printed in gold on the front, with Clive Christian, a large serif 1872, Original Collection and the words The Feminine Perfume of the Perfect Pair, between thin gold lines.

The gold metal stopper takes the form of a royal crown with domed, beaded lobes, set on an engraved band. The house says the Original Collection bottles are inspired by the original Victorian flacons.
