Tomoo Inaba opens it with a crowd of dark spices, lets them settle into honeyed rose and powdery florals, and ends in smoke, oud and dry woods. Zoologist describes the base as a reminder of the danger inside the flame. It is an Extrait de Parfum at 20%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Pepper, Cinnamon, Clove, Cumin, Lemon, Nutmeg, Saffron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Heliotrope, Iris, Jasmine, Mimosa, Muguet, Rose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Ambergris, Honey, Resins, Guaiac Wood, Musk, Nagarmotha, Oud, Patchouli, Smoke, Vetiver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSix spices and a lemon\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack pepper, cinnamon, clove, cumin, nutmeg and saffron open the scent together, with a little lemon to lift them. Cumin and saffron add a savoury, slightly dusty warmth, and the brand calls the opening rich and gothic. There is very little fresh air in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRose, iris, powder\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the heart come rose, jasmine, iris, mimosa, heliotrope and muguet, a soft, powdery bouquet. The brand describes honeyed rose here, though the honey itself is listed in the base, so the sweetness builds as the perfume dries down rather than arriving all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmoke and dry woods\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is long: ambergris, honey, resins, musk, oud, smoke, guaiac wood, nagarmotha, patchouli and vetiver. Guaiac, nagarmotha and patchouli give earthy, woody dryness, and the smoke sits under all of it. The brand marks ambergris, honey and musk as synthetic notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoth is dense and spiced, so one or two sprays are enough. It belongs to autumn and winter and to evening plans. The spices come first and the smoke and woods arrive later, so give it a little time on the skin before judging it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who likes spiced, smoky perfumes with a sweet floral core, the kind of person who prefers dark and dramatic to fresh and clean. It is listed as unisex and fits cold evenings, dinners and nights out. It is a poor match for anyone looking for a light daytime scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Zoologist Moth\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTomoo Inaba is the named perfumer. Zoologist, the Toronto house founded by Victor Wong in 2013, names each of its perfumes after an animal and credits a different perfumer on every box. Moth is one of its dramatic ones: a story with a warning in it, told in spice, honey and smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat is the character of Moth?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDark, spiced and smoky over a sweet, powdery floral heart: pepper, clove and saffron first, then rose and iris, then oud, smoke and woods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow concentrated is it?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is an Extrait de Parfum at 20%. That makes it a dense scent that sits close to the skin and is built to last, so two sprays are generally plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs Moth an oud perfume?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOud is one of ten base notes, next to smoke, guaiac wood, nagarmotha, patchouli and vetiver. It adds depth but does not lead; the spices and the florals come first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhere is it best worn?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt night and in cool weather: dinners, the theatre, autumn and winter. In summer heat the spice and the smoke can feel heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zoologist","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67658299506840,"sku":"ZOO-MOTH-EXT-60ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0852\/1157\/8520\/files\/zoologist-moth-extrait-de-parfum-60ml.webp?v=1791360598","url":"https:\/\/nichegems.eu\/products\/zoologist-moth-extrait-de-parfum-60ml","provider":"NicheGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
