Rhinoceros Edition 2020 Zoologist

Rhinoceros Edition 2020 by Zoologist Perfumes is a bold, deeply masculine fragrance built around a powerful tobacco core that evolves with a complex blend of woody, boozy, and leathery accords. The opening features a sharp, spirited whiskey and rum infusion that quickly deepens into a dry, dusty tobacco note—like a freshly opened pipe filled with aged leaves. This transition is enhanced by a subtle sweetness from coffee and amber, tempered by medicinal green notes from cypriol oil, which gives the fragrance a distinct aromatic clarity. As it settles, the scent reveals layers of smoky leather, earthy patchouli, incense, and a faint animalic depth—best described as a clean barnyard or overgrown field after rain. The dry down is warm, spicy, and almost cedar-like, with a persistent hint of dry hay and oud that lingers for hours. It projects strongly and leaves a long, story-telling sillage, making it ideal for colder, darker evenings and formal or theatrical occasions.
