Macaque

Name: Macaque Eau de Parfum
Brand: Zoologist Perfumes

Zoologist Perfumes Macaque is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Sarah McCartney. Macaque opens with Apple, Cedar, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Honey, Ylang-Ylang, Rosewood, and Galbanum, and dries down to a base of Tea, Oakmoss, Musk, and Oud. Zoologist Perfumes's Macaque carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Prepare for a polarised experience. Macaque is a truly divisive creation; some will adore its complex green allure, while others will find it utterly unwearable, smelling of zoos and unpleasant herbal concoctions. Definitely one to try before you buy, it's not a blind-buy crowd-pleaser.

With its strong, green character and moderate sillage, Macaque is best suited for casual wear where its unique profile can be appreciated without being overwhelming. It's too distinctive and potentially polarising for formal or conservative office settings, but some find it fresh enough for a light daytime application.

About

Macaque opens with a sharp, tart burst of green apple and juicy mandarin, quickly diving into an intensely green heart. Galbanum takes centre stage, bringing an earthy, almost bitter verdancy, softened by honeyed ylang-ylang and delicate jasmine tea. The base settles into a forest floor of oakmoss, woody cedar, and a hint of musky oud, creating a raw, naturalistic impression.
