Clive Christian Town & Country EDP

Description

Town & Country is Clive Christian's polished bridge between crisp city refinement and the open countryside. Created in 2023 by perfumer Vincent Ricord, this rich 25% Eau de Parfum opens fresh and aromatic (bergamot, clary sage and juniper) before a heart of frankincense, cardamom and creamy sandalwood adds smoky warmth and depth. Reviewers describe it as elegant and quietly addictive, the incense-and-wood backbone giving an otherwise clean citrus-aromatic real character.

Scent Character

• Fresh: 42%
• Woody: 25%
• Smoky/Resinous: 17%
• Spicy: 8%
• Sweet: 8%

Translation: a fresh-woody aromatic with a smoky-resinous spine, bright citrus and herbs up top, frankincense and sandalwood smoldering underneath. The "smoky" facet here is incense and resin, not agarwood.

Performance

• Longevity: Strong, commonly reported at 8–10+ hours; some wearers note all-day performance from this 25% concentration.
• Sillage: Moderate. It opens with confident projection from the fresh-incense top, then settles into a refined, close-to-skin aura.
• Projection: About 2–3 feet in the first hour before drawing inward.

Best Occasions & Season

• Season: Spring, Summer and Fall. The fresh top suits warmth while the smoky-woody base carries into cooler days.
• Occasions: Everyday wear and leisure. Refined enough for the office, characterful enough for evenings out.
• Wears: Unisex.

FAQ

Does Town & Country contain oud?
No. The smoky character comes from frankincense (incense) and resins, not agarwood. Expect a clean, smoldering incense-and-wood feel rather than a heavy oud.

How long does it last?
It's a rich 25% EDP. Wearers commonly report 8–10+ hours, with some noting all-day longevity.

Is it for men or women?
Fully unisex, the fresh-aromatic top and smoky-woody base flatter anyone.
