Zoologist Perfumes Camel smells like smoky incense, sweet dates, animal musk leather. It opens with dried fruits, frankincense and date palm, moves into incense, myrrh and cinnamon and settles on civet, animalic musk and sandalwood. It reads unisex.
This fragrance is best in fall and winter and is an evening scent. Reach for it for date nights. Released in 2017.
Wearers report that it lasts through a full day, and projects to about arm's length. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Around $200.
