Clive Christian, creator of the World’s Most Expensive Perfume, is launching the second release from his Private Collection: “V” Perfumes, named after his eldest daughter Victoria.

The line comes in two varieties, V for Women and V for Men. Both scents come in the unique bottles of the Private Collection, made of customary pressed glass in a deep amber color. These bottles serve as tribute to the original apothecary bottles from the perfumery crowned by Queen Victoria in 1872 as a mark of British excellence.

V for women consists of orange blossom, associated with joy and betrothal, combined with rose, jasmine, soothing chaomile and lavender for a truly romantic scent.

V for Women, $405

V for Men is a woody oriental scent, with Frankincense combining with woods and resins along with pink, white, and black pepper.

V for Men, $405

Both varieties are available at Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus stores nationwide and online at www.bergdorfgoodman.com and www.neimanmarcus.com beginning in August.
