Atkinsons 1799 - The Contemporary Collection - Robinson Bear
Inspired by Daniel Defoe’s famous novel, ‘’Robinson Crusoe’’, the fragrance not only celebrates this tale’s adventurous spirit, but also the charismatic personality of its author, an intellectual artist who left a distinct mark on the literary world.
Conjuring memories of ocean waves and sun-filled days by the sea, Robinson Bear is the embodiment of Crusoe’s adventures, bottled up into the most delightful of scents. Exhilaratingly edgy, yet seductive, its marine accord evokes a sense of adventure, awakening the wandering spirit that lies in each of us.
The Contemporary Collection
Atkinsons is extraordinarily pleased to present The Contemporary Collection. A thoroughly modern Haute Parfumerie line of classic unconventionality, it is the sequel to 24 Old Bond Street, the emblem of the house, and the Legendary Collection, which reinvents the house’s great heritage masterpieces.
Very much in the avant-garde ethos of the house’s founder James Atkinson, The Contemporary Collection showcases surprisingly edgy interpretations of the most emblematic ingredients and archetypal structures in perfumery. Its three perfumes, Rose in Wonderland, Lavender on the Rocks and Posh on the Green, are highly figurative, radically contemporary visions of three iconic perfume ingredients. This trio transforms the familiar into the fabulously unfamiliar in a way that is distinctive and intriguing.
What the ParfuMaria team thinks of Robinson Bear. It is a very fresh and adventurous scent with depth. You smell the sea but also something floral and you also smell wood. Very intriguing and suitable for young, old, man or woman. Wonderful in the warmer months but also in winter because this scent takes you on a journey.
