Our verdict on Hyrax: Acquired

Hyrax is a divisive beast of a fragrance, unapologetically animalic and not for the faint-hearted. It’s a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for those who get it, it's an addictive masterpiece that defies convention. Tread carefully, but don't shy away from this olfactory adventure.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

With its beast-mode projection and strong, polarising animalic notes, this is absolutely not an office scent. It's too challenging for most dates, but could be worn casually if you're feeling adventurous and don't mind turning heads.

About

This one opens with a perplexing blend of sharp, peppery rose and elemi, quickly evolving into a potent animalic heart. Expect a heady mix of musky hyraceum, civet, and castoreum, underscored by a boozy whisper of whisky and earthy styrax. The dry down mellows into a long-lasting, warm embrace of amber, sandalwood, and patchouli, often described as a surprisingly cozy, dirty leather.
