by The Zoo
Club Design by The Zoo is a bold, avant-garde leather scent that stands out for its synthetic, almost industrial intensity. It opens with a sharp, rubbery accord layered over green herbal freshness and citrus notes—most notably grapefruit and black currant—which are buried beneath the dominant leather and smoky woody base. Over time, this resolves into a smooth, powdery suede with a warm, slightly sweet musk and a hint of honeyed mimosa, evoking the interior of a new car or a well-worn leather jacket. The perfume is starkly contrasted, with a striking tension between its aggressive, pungent opening and a surprisingly soft, wearable dry down that becomes more comforting after several hours. Despite its strong, niche character, it remains universally wearable in the right context—especially during winter or on formal, daring occasions. Its longevity is moderate to long, though the sillage dips after initial contact, transforming into an intimate, close-to-skin presence by midday.
