Jump up and Kiss Me Hedonistic

Jump up and Kiss Me Hedonistic, composed by Julie Pluchet for the British house Clive Christian in 2017, is a men's fragrance that everyone who rates it describes as resinous, ambered and leathery in equal measure. The note list is as spare as a scent can be: labdanum, leather and amber.

With only three materials named, there is no real journey from top to base; the scent is a single, warm chord from the first minute. Labdanum gives a dark, sticky, slightly animalic resin with a honeyed sweetness, leather adds a smoky, supple, skin-like depth, and amber smooths the two into a soft, glowing warmth. The result is a rich, close-textured scent that sits on the skin like a warm coat rather than announcing itself with freshness or flowers.

Resin, leather and amber of this density belong to cold weather and evenings. It should suit men who prefer deep, warm, slightly animalic scents over anything fresh or green, and who like a fragrance that stays the same from start to finish.
