Zoologist Tyrannosaurus Rex – Sample & 60 ml

Cave's take

Tyrannosaurus Rex begins green and peppery, with bergamot, black pepper, fir, laurel leaf, neroli and nutmeg. A big floral heart follows: champaca, geranium, jasmine, osmanthus, rose and ylang ylang. The base turns smoky and dark with cade, cedar, frankincense, resins, patchouli, sandalwood and vanilla, plus civet and leather, both synthetic. Woody and smoky with a lot of flowers inside, it suits the prehistoric world of wildfire and giant predators it draws on.

It is sold as a 2 ml sample, hand-decanted from the original bottle, and as a 60 ml bottle. To try more of the range, see the Zoologist Discovery Set.

If you like the pepper, leather and civet, Adi ale Van Leaves in the wind shares them along with patchouli and olibanum incense. Moth also combines black pepper, nutmeg, jasmine, rose, resins and patchouli.

The Story Behind The Scent

A sultry heat wafts across the land, lapped up greedily by the abundant flora that thrives in its midst. Trees soar to majestic heights and plants flower for the first time, their petals spreading to give birth to a world rich in diversity. The Cretaceous period comes of age against a backdrop scorched by wildfire and lightning strikes. Over this turbulent landscape, a massive predator looms. Giants rule the earth, but even giants can be cut down within the powerful jaws of the fearsome tyrannosaur. Standing tall, the terrifying beast fears nothing, until that pivotal moment when a fire in the sky signals the end of their deadly reign.

Zoologist Tyrannosaurus Rex is a gargantuan scent that sinks its teeth into the world of delicate fragrances and rips it wide open. Primitive woods and florals seize you and snatch you away to an ancient era. Smoky, charred wood warns of the danger of smouldering fire, setting your senses on edge, while droplets of metallic rose oxide offer a chilling premonition of blood-lust. The mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex is sometimes menacing, sometimes fascinating, but never, ever ordinary.

The Artist Behind The Scent

Zoologist Perfumes is a Canadian niche fragrance house founded by Victor Wong, redefining modern perfumery by drawing inspiration from the animal kingdom.

From the honeyed elegance of Bee and the mysterious depth of Moth to the vibrant freshness of Hummingbird, the earthy warmth of Harvest Mouse, and the iconic Squid, every creation offers a distinctive artistic experience.
