Which Should You Buy?
Divisive yet utterly captivating, Zoologist's Civet is a bold amber animalic that sparks love-it-or-hate-it reactions. It's a throwback to classic perfumery, rich and unapologetic.
Francesca Bianchi's Lost in Heaven is a divisive, unapologetically animalic floral that some find a 'masterpiece' and others a 'halitosis sundae'. It's bold, complex, and demands respect, but certainly isn't a blind buy.

Occasions
This fragrance is an extrait with excellent longevity and sillage, making it too powerful for most office environments. Its sensual and opulent nature, combined with a strong animalic presence, makes it ideal for dates and evening formal events where making a statement is desired, but less suitable for casual or sport wear.
