Their days are spent secluded in camouflage, the intricate pattern of their wings disguising them against a coarse backdrop of barks and rocks. When they finally stir, even their flight is concealed, shrouded beneath the cover of night. Moonlight ripples off a delicate coating of tiny hairs, as their feathered antennae guide them in their search for a mate. Only one temptation can lure them from their quest. Should they succumb to the attraction of the flame, their urge to procreate may be quashed in a wisp of smoke and a smattering of ashes.
At first encounter, the rich, gothic scent of Zoologist Moth may surprise, but soon it hypnotizes. A heavy dose of dark spices jolts your senses before settling into a dusting of honey-sweet rose and powdery florals. Slowly, it tests its wings, taking flight on an exotic journey of nagarmotha, guaiac wood and patchouli. Beneath it all lingers a smoky undertone that serves as a constant reminder of the danger within the tantalizing flame.
NOTES: Spices, honey, rose, nagarmotha, powder, guaiac wood, patchouli

Gothic flavor. Associations: burned love letters, autumn bonfires, dust, smoke, dried flowers, rich honey. There is no anguish, on the contrary, it is comforting in its blues. In addition, there is a very beautiful oud. I want to inhale and inhale this. Love it.
