Description
Zoologist Bat (2020) offers a truly unique and evocative experience, transporting you to a tropical fruit bat's cavernous home. It opens with a striking blend of ripe, juicy tropical fruits like guava, passionfruit, and fig, grounded by a distinct soil accord that immediately sets a dark, earthy tone. As it develops, mineral notes, hay, and incense emerge, creating an atmospheric sense of a cool, damp cave, while night-blooming jasmine adds a touch of unexpected floralcy. The drydown settles into a complex base of animalic notes, leather, vetiver, and teak wood, leaving a lasting impression of a mysterious, leathery-winged creature amidst its natural habitat. This is a scent that truly tells a story on the skin. Perfumer: Prin Lomros
