Launched in 2022 by Clive Christian, Contemporary is an aromatic fougère designed to blend the fresh and spicy with earthy depth. Perfumer Angela Stavrevska has crafted a scent that opens with the vibrant freshness of geranium and blackberry, before transitioning into a heart of violet and nutmeg. The base notes of cedar, moss, and malt create a warm, powdery foundation that grounds the composition in rich, woody tones.
