Clive Christian Perfume is a market-leading independent British perfumery, aiming to create the best perfumes in the world. The brand's predecessor, the Crown Perfumery Company, founded in 1872, is the only house that has obtained permission to use Queen Victoria's crown on its bottles. An image that defines every bottle of Clive Christian perfume to this day.

In 1999 Clive Christian acquired the Crown perfumery in London, which was named after Queen Victoria, also using her name and her crown as a symbol of quality and excellence. Clive Christian's classic formulation helped him create a new level in high perfumery, which is why it was the queen's favorite and was born from the need of the ladies of Victorian society to use revitalizing aromas that would allow them to endure corsets and clothing. used at the time. Initially, ammonia salts were used, which smelled very bad, and it was precisely the son of a corset maker who had the idea of creating a revitalizing fragrance, but one that smelled good, which resulted in instant success.

Due to the Queen's position at court, this company had access to all trade routes with perfumes, allowing it to use the strangest, purest and most expensive natural ingredients that could be used in perfumery. The first creations of this perfume house were sold on board the Titanic.
