Zoologist Perfumes Elephant Sanctuary Edition is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Natasha Côté. Elephant Sanctuary Edition opens with Mate, Pink Pepper, Cardamom, and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Suede, Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Sandalwood, and Iris. Zoologist Perfumes's Elephant Sanctuary Edition carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This flanker to the challenging original is a polarising release. Some love its approachable, elegant take on a spicy tea and suede fragrance, finding it surprisingly wearable. Others find it bland and generic, a sad dilution of the brand's unique identity. Test it and decide for yourself.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

About

Elephant Sanctuary Edition opens with a sophisticated blend of spiced tea, featuring notes of mate, nutmeg, cardamom, and pink pepper. The heart unfurls into a beautiful white floral bouquet, where creamy tuberose and osmanthus lead the way. It then settles into a luxurious, powdery base of soft suede, earthy orris, and warm sandalwood, creating a refined and comforting aura with an unusual leathery-animalic twist.
