The World’s Most Expensive Perfume – No1 by Clive Christian

And yes, it is officially (according to the Guinness World Records) the world’s most expensive perfume – No1 by Clive Christian. The No1 for Women Pure Perfume in a 30ml crystal bottle costs $2,350.00

Only 1000 bottles each of men and women’s fragrance are released every year.

Top Notes: lime and white peach;
Middle Notes: rose, jasmine, ylang ylang and green orchid;
Base Notes: Tahitian vanilla and ancient Indian sandalwood.

And this is not just it, Clive Christian also produced 10 the most expensive bottles of the most expensive perfume on earth – “No. 1 Imperial Majesty“. Valued at over $215,000.00, each of the 10 bottles is made of Baccarat Crystal and inset with a white diamond on the neck.


Clive Christian claims that they have “produced the best possible perfume that was known to mankind, and they were to ignore all costs and buy whatever they considered would produce the best results, even taking into account that it might not be sustainable. In other words, next year, we may not be able to do it. Nobody has ever done that. No. 1 does change, year by year,” said Clive Christian, according to whome the two ingredients in particular that made the perfume expensive were natural aged sandalwood from India and Tahitian vanilla.

The by-product of that is that it became ridiculously expensive to actually produce that. We didn’t expect it to be as well-received as it has been, which goes to show that if you produce something so well, the world will respond well to it.
