Clive Christian is not a perfume brand which is know in every household. It is not a perfume brand which is common, or well known. But it is significant for one thing: it produces the most expensive perfume in the World.

Clive Christian “Imperial Majesty”, is sold in bottles of 16.9 ounces, adorned with a gold collar, and holding a beautiful five-carat diamond. Yes, thats a good diamond.

I dread to think about buying the empty bottle - let alone the actual perfume in it!

However, it’s not something you can just waltz into Selfridges and buy, regardless of it’s cost. Only five bottles are manufactured anually, making it the most rare perfume in commercial production.

So the final question: how much is it?

Well, at only $215′000 USD a bottle, it’s quite affordable if you are the Duke of Atlantis. Apart from that, it is something to be marvelled at, more than desired.

Annick Goutal is has launched it’s first British boutique in London. The store, which can be found on Motcomb Street, London, is Annick Goutal’s hideway. In fact, it is relatively tucked away for a brand as well-known and versatile as Annick Goutal.

On the main floor is a quiet room, with seats, and a basin to try/remove the fragrances. Downstairs is a lingerie area with a small range of jewellery. They are also hoping to open a spa and treatment room sometime in the near future.

So many good wishes to Annick Goutal Perfume, in their new house tucked away in Knightsbridge, London.

So, we all know of THE American fashion company: Juicy Couture. We have all seen their sexy tracksuits, felt their gorgeoes velour, tried their lustuous handbags for size and seen pictures of our favourite celebrities wearing Juicy apparel. However, not so many of us have had the opportunity to SMELL their perfume.

Juicy Couture Perfume (yes, the perfume modestly named after the company) has been a hit fragrance since it’s release in August 2006.  Juicy Couture is now one of the most desirable fragrances in existence, as it’s scent is CLASSY, old-fashioned, and with distinctive notes of France, but in a bottle and from a company who are the height of current fashion.

The thing is, deep down inside everybody there is a longing for things from the past to return. All girls know they look pretty in a traditional dress, and all men look fantastic in a rustic suit. However, Juicy Couture is a fragrance which IS a tradition, but with touches of pink and watermelon, and it’s fresh, non-musky hints, it’s a complete perfume of the past, present, and future.
