Description
Zoologist Dodo Jackfruit Edition opens with a bright, tropical burst of jackfruit and bergamot, accented by a lively touch of pink pepper and aromatic turmeric. As it settles, a comforting floral heart emerges, blending soft lavender, orange blossom, and geranium with a powdery hint of orris. The fragrance then gracefully transitions into a warm, earthy dry down, where woody notes of tonka bean, sandalwood, vetiver, and patchouli create a grounded and inviting finish. This scent offers a unique balance of exotic fruitiness, soothing florals, and deep woods, making it a distinctive and intriguing wear. Perfumer: Yves Cassar
