Which Should You Buy?
Zoologist Tiger is a dry, woody affair that's earned a decidedly mixed reception. While some praise its sophisticated vetiver and subtle animalics, others find it too safe, linear, or just plain disappointing for a brand known for its boldness. It's a 'pussycat' for some, a 'menacingly dark' beast for others.
This is a seriously divisive sandalwood; some find it a masterful, unique take on woody notes, while others find something distinctly 'off'. Expect a bold, confident scent that isn't for everyone, but those who love it, really love it. Not a safe blind buy.
