DODO - ZOOLOGIST

The sun glittered on the rippling waves, his morning dance on the Indian Ocean awakening the sleeps from their carefree sleep. Tripping drunk on the forest floor, they feasted on ripe fruits where they were, deposited for them by the lush paradise island that fed them. For generations, the abundant, predator-free shorelines lulled them into such a state of complacency that their wings became dormant and the flight was lost - even for memory. Evolution will eventually betray them, but as long as it lasts, the sleeps will enjoy an existence marked by ease and comfort.

In Zoologist Dodo, fragrant herbs and ferns are enriched with an invigorating touch of bergamot, juicy pineapple and blackcurrant, before the fruity aroma turns into a more traditional fern. The spices wander among notes of lavender, tonka and oak moss, and settle with beautiful woody shades of oak. Dodo is a paradox. Like these missing inhabitants of Mauritius, the scent is both classic but fun, unknowable but unforgettable. The ideal scent for those with eclectic sensitivity who aspire to a life of leisure and contentment.
