Description
Moth is Zoologist Perfumes' haunting tribute to the mysterious beauty of creatures drawn to the night. Rich, smoky, and atmospheric, it evokes the quiet elegance of antique libraries, flickering candlelight, faded velvet, and forgotten rooms where time seems to stand still.
The fragrance opens with an exotic blend of black pepper, cinnamon, clove, saffron, cumin, lemon, and nutmeg, creating a warm, spicy introduction filled with intrigue. The heart unfolds into a powdery bouquet of iris, heliotrope, jasmine, mimosa, and rose, lending a ghostly floral softness that contrasts beautifully with the darkness beneath. As it dries down, honey, smoky resins, labdanum, guaiac wood, patchouli, nagarmotha, ambergris accord, musk, and vanilla merge into a deep, resinous base that is both comforting and enigmatic.
Dark, elegant, and endlessly captivating, Moth masterfully balances smoky woods, vintage florals, warm spices, and rich resins, creating one of Zoologist's most atmospheric and unforgettable fragrances.
