What Does Sloth Smell Like
Sloth by Zoologist opens with a soothing, herbal aroma of chamomile, gently complemented by the exotic, subtly sweet scent of açaÃ. There's an immediate undercurrent of calming lavender and a fresh yet delicate hint of violet leaf, adding a distinct green note. Soon, the fragrance evolves, introducing a heavy floral presence of tagetes, giving off a slightly citrusy yet potent aroma. This middle phase also reveals an intriguing mix of aniseed with its characteristic sweet-spice scent, and the warm, earthy hints of cumin. The slightly musky, intense scent of spikenard peeks through, joined by the humble beeswax and a faint whisper of jasmine, adding a soft, floral touch.
As the fragrance settles, the base reveals an earthy, deeply aromatic blend where frankincense takes the lead. Its balsamic, resinous aroma is intertwined with the sweet, dry scent of hay and the unusual, earthy note of mushrooms offering a rich depth. The smoky, opulent scent of myrrh gently mingles with the deep, forest-like tones of oakmoss. The addition of tonka bean and a faint hint of vanilla provide a subtle, yet very noticeable sweetness, rounding off the scent, creating an intriguing, earthy, spicy, and woody personality that leaves a powerful imprint.
Review of Sloth
Sloth by Zoologist is a fascinating perfume that gracefully straddles the line between the sensual and the serene. Launched in 2020, this alluring blend resonates with a predominately male audience, not excluding the others as it holds a unisex charm.
The scent is an adventurous exploration. With a notable earthy backbone, Sloth introduces itself with a green-spicy-fresh nuance that beguiles you into a world less traveled. The spicy kick, possibly from the aniseed, adds a playful heat that strikes a chord with the adventurous at heart, making it a suitable companion for leisurely exploits.
While the fragrance echoes a love for the outdoors, there's an undeniable fruity sweetness that adds a hint of the unexpected. The scent paints an image of a tranquil forest where nature and wildlife co-exist harmoniously—a welcoming fact for those who want to bring a bit of the wilderness into their urban lifestyle.
As Sloth settles on the skin, the woody and animalic notes start to emerge, grounding the perfume with a raw, primal edge. This evolution mirrors the slow-paced, languid lifestyle of the sloth, making the perfume perfect for those who appreciate the beauty of slow living.
The perfume's staying power is commendable, lasting from morning till evening without losing its initial charm. It transitions well across seasons, making it a versatile addition to any collection.
However, the perfume's value might raise a few eyebrows. The price point is a tad high for its offering, which might be a setback for some. Moreover, the singular, distinctive scent profile may not appeal to everyone, specifically those who lean towards classic, well-established fragrance profiles.
All in all, Sloth by Zoologist makes a bold statement. It's a perfume for the free-spirited, those who aren't afraid to stand out from the crowd. It's a scent that tells a story, a unique narrative of nature's slow, beautiful dance.
