Zoologist Perfumes Beaver Edition 2016 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2016, created by Chris Bartlett. Beaver Edition 2016 opens with Ozonic Notes, settles into a heart of Woody Notes, Musk, and Rain, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, Vanilla, and Castoreum. Zoologist Perfumes's Beaver Edition 2016 carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A surprisingly wearable and clean take on the animalic. Zoologist's Beaver 2016 is a divisive beast: for some, it's a breath of fresh air; for others, it's a 'dam' shame, lacking the wild bite expected from the brand. Expect ozonic freshness with an earthy undertone.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its clean, fresh, and close-to-skin nature makes it suitable for office wear and casual outings, where subtle projection is preferred. Lower scores for formal occasions are due to its unconventional and 'nature-inspired' profile, while its fresh aquatic elements suit sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opening with a crisp ozonic blast, Beaver 2016 quickly ushers in fresh rainwater and green notes, reminiscent of a stream bank. Woody facets emerge, intertwined with a clean, slightly soapy musk, grounding the initial brightness. The drydown unveils a delicate leather alongside a subtle, creamy castoreum, smoothed by vanilla and amber, evoking a damp, forested den rather than a dirty animalic.
