Zoologist Harvest Mouse ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 18 January 2023 11 Comments

Indie Canadian line Zoologist will launch Harvest Mouse, a new unisex fragrance, in February.

Autumn winds skip across golden wheat fields. As the tall grasses billow, the rattle of husks beats a soft prairie lullaby, signalling to the weary sun to rest. In the fading light, tiny harvest mice venture forth, scrambling to gather seeds and fruits. For once the sun sinks fully beneath the horizon, its rule of the sky is bestowed on another. And when the coo of the owl breaks the night, the mice dash, trembling, back to their nests.

Like a countryside bathed in sweet sunlight, Zoologist Harvest Mouse conjures images of home-baked goodness. Stalks of wheat sway among chamomile, davana and hay, and rich beer extracts are sobered by resins and woody notes. Cozy up in a warm nest of homespun scent.

Harvest Mouse was developed by perfumer Luca Maffei. Additional notes include bergamot, cloves, orange blossom, benzoin, opoponax, rose, fir balsam, oakmoss, cedar, sandalwood, Peru balsam and vanilla.

Zoologist Harvest Mouse is shown above in the limited edition packaging. It will available in 60 ml Extrait de Parfum, $225. Samples can be ordered now directly from the brand, or from Etiket in Canada.

    A sample of this is in my cart. This one is really up my alley – a fall scent with my favorite color and my favorite animal. Must try.

    I will probably try this–I’m always on the lookout for grain scents

    Being a country mouse myself, I’m really looking forward to trying this. Hay and opoponax, sign me up.
