Dive into the mysterious depths of the ocean with Zoologist Squid, an elegant unisex fragrance inspired by the hidden world beneath the waves. Created by perfumer Céline Barel, this captivating scent tells a melancholic maritime story of deep-sea creatures, ocean currents, and the rare beauty of ambergris-inspired accords.

With a 20% parfum concentration, Squid creates a powerful yet refined fragrance experience where salty marine freshness, dark ink-like nuances, smoky incense, and warm resins come together in perfect harmony.

The fragrance opens with a striking blend of pink pepper, solar salicylate, and incense. Bright spice and sunlit warmth meet the mystical depth of incense, creating an atmospheric introduction reminiscent of endless ocean horizons.

At the heart, black ink accord, salty accord, and opoponax reveal the mysterious character of the fragrance. The inky note brings a dark aquatic sensation, while salty marine tones capture the essence of the sea. Opoponax adds a smooth resinous richness, enhancing the scent’s emotional depth.

The fragrance settles into a sophisticated base of ambergris-inspired accord, benzoin, and musk. Warm amber nuances create a smooth oceanic trail, benzoin adds sweet balsamic warmth, and musk provides a soft, lasting finish.
