    Sven Pritzkoleit is a german self taught perfumer and behind the now defunct brand SP Parfums. Smurfygurly and Mr Smelly used to feature his scents on their channels.
    Pascal Gaurin is actually the vice president perfumer at IFF. Musk Deer is very nicely blended indeed.
    Mackenzie Reilly is a young female perfumer and did Amouage Meander (which is a showcase of everything wrong with synthetic sandalwood imo).

    Your descriptions of the artwork on the sample cards had me laughing.
    I have a couple samples of the original Beaver.
    They changed it I think because of the dislike for the original. I liked it.
    Have a great weekend ahead.

    This house has always kept me curious but my chase for vintages has deterred me. Hyrax, interesting... 🤔 👀 🦆

    • @RichMitch
      @RichMitch  2 роки тому +3

      The search for vintages is a noble cause. There is always a pressure to prioritise the search too as the supply is so limited.

    Cow says: Moo! - other than that, the pack you selected has almost all of the perfumes from this house that i own, barring Camel and Nightingale (if my recall is working this morning). Musk Deer is soft and subtle - not at all what i expected, but a very nice wear. and the version of Macaque that you have, the 'Yuzu' one is the one i prefer. Bon Appetit, Rich... and Merci Beaucoup!

    I've had a few samples and travel bottles of Zoologist over the years, and enjoyed everything I've tried thus far. Such an interesting house. I love their avant-garde creations which are the antithesis of the designer realm. Unfortunately, my wife doesn't share my enthusiasm.

    They defiantly need to add Duck. I own Camel, Bee, Koala, Moth and Nightingale. I do like the artistry of T-Rex, Squid and Elephant, but I don’t think I could wear them. Cow sounds like it might be worth a sample. Zoologist was a sampling dream for me.

    My first impression of macaque was literally "I could make a better version of this on my first try" lol. I think sloth was my favorite.. tried all of them but the last 2 releases I think. The original bat is better but new bat not terrible. T-rex is interesting. None of them made the collection though
