The spring day seems still and peaceful. Yet beneath the wildly splattered canvas of a blossom-strewn meadow, thousands engage in a desperate race for survival. Worker bees toil at a frantic pace, ferrying a precious cargo of nectar and pollen to deposit it within cramped honeycomb cells, where it will nurture drones and larvae under the eye of a regal queen. In the claustrophobic hive, a deafening buzz offers evidence of the bees' devotion to duty, not a single worker pausing to question its role in perpetual grind of life in the queendom. Like the frantic hustle of the bee through a maze of multi-faceted scents, Zoologist Bee delivers a surreal experience. The rich aroma of honey captivates, while alluring florals, royal jelly, animalic beeswax and regal incense unite to create a buzz, offering excitement, and the sweet rewards of life.

Hyperrealistic honey with broom, heliotrope, and orange flower — the bee's entire world.

Editor's Notes

Imagine the bee, who dives into flowers and bathes in intoxicating pollen, concentrating this nectareous essence to make a bounty of honey. Unmistakable, its aroma is inseparable from its sticky sensation and sweet taste, which is nuanced across the range of fruit, floral, and spicy-resinous tones. This makes honey the perfect fantasy note in perfume, able to be explored in innumerable facets. Zoologist’s Bee is an homage to this material, but also a realistic dedication to the animal itself. Achieved with beeswax absolute, honey is a nuance as much as it is a note, which makes it an ingredient rich with affinities.

Bee is an atmospheric fragrance that begins with a meticulously constructed fantasy accord of honey, beeswax, and royal jelly. Bee perfects the aroma of honey, working this feature vertically through the composition as it radiates more than just sweetness, but also smoky, musky, animalic, floral, and waxy notes in perfect harmony. With this, perfumer Cristiano Canali extends an olfactory line through orange citrus fruit for sweetness and a ginger syrup accord for fizz and spice, lavishly gilded with flowers that already ooze a heady, honey sweet aroma, which includes broom, mimosa, orange flower, all dusted in pollen. Finally, a woody-resinous contrast of sandalwood, a classic amber accord of vanilla-benzoin, and labdanum in the base offer steady horizontal lines of creaminess, leathery phenolic smoke, and sunny warmth.
