Zoologist Rabbit
Green leaves, carrot, hay and biscuit
Rabbit starts from a sonnet rather than a story: the brand's page carries a poem by Jehanne Dubrow about rabbits in a meadow at night. Fanny Bal turns its meadow imagery into green leaves, a carrot note, jasmine, patchouli and a warm biscuit finish. It is an Extrait de Parfum at 25%, the top of Zoologist's 18 to 25% range.

How it unfolds
-
Leaves and cinnamon
A green leaves accord leads, fresh and slightly bitter, with bergamot and apple for brightness and cinnamon as a first hint of baking. The opening is green before it is sweet, and the apple keeps it crisp rather than juicy.
-
Clover and carrot
In the heart, a clover flower accord, violet and jasmine absolute make the floral side soft and a little powdery, while the carrot adds an earthy, faintly sweet root. It is an unusual centre, vegetal and floral together, and it fits the brand's own one-line summary: a carrot cake with a topping of dry hay.
-
Hay, almond, biscuit
The base is dry and sweet at once: hay, white almond, vanilla and a biscuit accord for the baked part, with patchouli for earth and musks for a soft skin finish. The musks carry the brand's asterisk for synthetic materials. As an extrait at 25% it should sit close and stay.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
At 25% Rabbit is concentrated, so one or two sprays are enough. It suits mild days in spring and autumn, walks, cafés and relaxed evenings. The green opening is bright and the base is cosy, so the scent moves from fresh to warm as it dries down.
Who it is for
For people who like gourmand perfumes with a green, herbal twist and are curious about vegetable and hay notes in a perfume. It is listed as unisex and suits anyone who prefers cosy to polished. If you want a classic floral, this is more offbeat.
Why choose Zoologist Rabbit
Fanny Bal is the named perfumer. On the brand's page a sonnet by Jehanne Dubrow takes the place of the usual prose story, and the perfume keeps that meadow-at-night mood. The carrot and biscuit notes keep it from being a plain green floral.

Questions
Frequently asked
Is there a story behind Rabbit?
Yes, but it is a poem. The brand's page carries a sonnet by Jehanne Dubrow about rabbits in a night meadow, and the perfume follows its imagery of clover, hay, violets and fruit.
Is it a food perfume?
Partly. Vanilla, white almond and the biscuit accord give a baked sweetness, but the green leaves, clover, violet and patchouli keep it herbal and earthy rather than a pure dessert.
Is the carrot note easy to spot?
Carrot is one of fourteen notes, in the heart between a clover flower accord and violet. It is meant as an earthy, faintly sweet thread, with the green leaves and hay around it, not as a vegetable on its own.
How should I apply it?
Spray once or twice on the chest, neck or wrists and let the green opening settle for a few minutes. The carrot comes through in the middle, and the hay and biscuit follow in the base.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
