Zoologist Perfumes Sacred Scarab is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2022, created by Sultan Pasha. Sacred Scarab opens with Lemon, Civet, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Red Wine, Lotus, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Cade, Wine Grape, Musk, and Amber. Zoologist Perfumes's Sacred Scarab carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This one's a divisive trip down memory lane! Sacred Scarab is either a complex, vintage-inspired masterpiece of animalic amber and aldehydes or a 'grandma's dusty attic' scrubber. Not for the faint of heart, but utterly captivating for those who dare.

About

An opulent amber-dominant oriental, Sacred Scarab opens with a bold, almost sparkling aldehydic burst, quickly joined by bright lemon and a pronounced animalic civet. This sharp introduction mellows into a heart of rich red wine, dark plum, and delicate lotus. The long, resonant drydown reveals layers of balsamic notes, smoky incense, and earthy oakmoss, cradled by deep amber and musk, evoking ancient luxury.
