Rook by Rook

Name: Rook by Rook Eau de Parfum
Brand: Rook Perfumes

Rook Perfumes Rook by Rook is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Nadeem Crowe. Rook by Rook opens with Ylang-Ylang, Ginger, Cardamom, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Castoreum and Vetiver. Rook Perfumes's Rook by Rook carries a Statement verdict, a smoky-led wear.

This one is as divisive as they come - you'll either find it a dark, artistic masterpiece or an unwearable, dirty mess. It's not for the faint of heart or those who prefer something 'safe'.

Date

With its intense smoke and potent animalics, Rook is far too overwhelming for the office or formal settings. It could work for a daring, unique date night, but it's generally best reserved for casual, cold-weather evenings when you want to make a statement.

About

Rook plunges you into a dark, smoky forest, heavy with burning incense and tarry woods. A sharp, almost rubbery opening of cardamom and ginger cuts through the opulent smoke, leading to a complex dry-down combining animalic nuances of castoreum with earthy vetiver. You might catch glimpses of floral ylang-ylang, but it's quickly enveloped by the brooding, leathery depth.
