The New Fragrance That Doesn't Announce Itself

Contrapposto has entered fragrance with its first collection, three extrait de parfums called Melting Flowers, Musc Pétille, and Lubanite. Extrait is the most concentrated format a fragrance can take, and the house built all three to sit close to skin rather than broadcast from across a room. Each is designed to meld with the wearer, taking on their own chemistry rather than sitting on top of it. The effect the house is after is a lasting impression — a scent that stays present rather than announcing itself and fading. Three debut bottles, each one leaning on intimacy rather than projection.

With reporting from The Zoe Report.
