Jump Up and Kiss Me Hedonistic

Clive Christian · Parfum / Extrait · 2021

≈ $495 · 50ml · approx. retail

Julie Pluchet composed this as one of the boldest entries in Clive Christian's Addictive Arts collection, a line built around scent "moods" rather than conventional masculine or feminine positioning. It opens on a lush black cherry and grapefruit accord — sweet without turning synthetic — brightened by mate and clary sage, before settling into a smoky tobacco-and-iris heart threaded with jasmine and papyrus. The dry-down is where it earns its name: amber, leather, cashmeran and vanilla build into a dense, skin-hugging warmth with the kind of longevity Clive Christian is known for. At $495 for 50ml, reception has been genuinely split — admirers of its richness against those who find the price hard to justify next to niche alternatives with a similar profile.
