{"product_id":"zoologist-penguin-extrait-de-parfum-60ml","title":"Zoologist Penguin Extrait de Parfum (60ml)","description":"\u003cp\u003ePenguin takes emperor penguins in an Antarctic storm as its subject, the male standing guard over the egg. Chiaki Nomura composes it around Antarctic air, an ice accord and juniper berry, with pink pepper, saffron and ciste absolute in the middle, then sandalwood, musks, sea moss and suede. The brand calls it invigorating. 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 Antarctic Air, Ice Accord, Juniper Berry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Pink Pepper, Saffron, Ciste Absolute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandalwood, Musks, Seamoss, Suede\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCold air\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top is built from Antarctic air, an ice accord and juniper berry, so it opens clean, cold and a little resinous. There is no sweetness to speak of, only the sensation of a hard, bright wind, which is the scene the brand describes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePepper and saffron\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePink pepper and saffron enter in the heart, adding dry warmth and a faint metallic spice to the cold top, while ciste absolute gives a resinous, slightly leathery depth. The effect is a sharpening of the opening rather than a softening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSea moss and suede\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is sandalwood, musks, sea moss and suede. Suede is soft and dry, sea moss keeps a salty, mineral edge, sandalwood adds a quiet creaminess, and the musks smooth everything over. On the brand's list the musks are flagged as synthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePenguin is crisp and dry, so one or two sprays are enough, and it is at home in cold weather. Its lack of sweetness also makes it a practical choice for the office and for the daytime. As an extrait it stays close to the skin and wears quietly rather than loudly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor people who prefer fresh, salty and dry perfumes to sweet ones, and who like suede or leather in a soft form.

It suits cold mornings, travel, work and anyone who wants a cool, quiet signature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Zoologist Penguin\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChiaki Nomura is the named perfumer. Penguin shows the brand taking a harsh scene seriously: a storm, the cold, a parent guarding an egg. Zoologist describes the scent as invigorating and as a reminder of how hard nature can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat concentration is Penguin?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn Extrait de Parfum at 20% on the brand's page.

It is most at home in cold weather, though a light spray can work on a summer morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat does the suede add?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuede brings a soft, dry leather impression to the base, balanced by musks and sandalwood.
