The review
My choice scores 7.4 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Crab Apple Blossom.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Crab Apple Blossom's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $89 per 100ml it costs 78% less than Crab Apple Blossom — the cheapest of 2 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength HK Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Clive Christian Crab Apple Blossom is green apple and bergamot at first, apple blossom, jasmine and rose at its heart and musk, sandalwood and amber at the end. HK Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- green apple
- bergamot
Heart
- apple blossom

- rose
Base
- musk
- sandalwood
- amber
Apple blossom and green apple over soft musk, an 1886 formula still smelling fresh.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

Of the 3 twins of Clive Christian Crab Apple Blossom we can price, My choice is the cheapest per 100ml.
