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.
