About
Elephant by Zoologist Perfumes is a Woody fragrance for women and men. Elephant was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Chris Bartlett. Top notes are Green Leaves, Darjeeling Tea and Magnolia; middle notes are Coconut Milk, Cacao Pod, Woody Notes, Incense and Jasmine; base notes are Sandalwood, Musk, Patchouli and Amber. "Huge trees quake at their approach, vulnerable leaves shuddering as the ground rumbles under heavy footsteps. They come with appetites as massive as their lumbering bodies. Nothing is spared from their bottomless hunger – trees stripped bare, roots upturned, even the tiniest blooms cannot escape their grasp. When the behemoths move on, they leave behind a path of destruction. Yet what often looks like carnage is actually a renaissance. The elephants fulfill a vital role – purging the delicate ecosystem, allowing new life to flourish.From beneath a canopy of lush, damp foliage, the complex aromas of Zoologist Elephant emerge. Into a mixture of invigorating Darjeeling and incense, swirl hints of magnolia, coconut and cocoa. With the patience of a foraging herd stripping the bark from a thicket of trees, the fragrance dissipates gradually. What is revealed is the core of the perfume – a beautiful and satisfying blend of woody notes, which dry down to an elegant, natural sandalwood scent." - a note from the brand.
