Pros

  • The first time I tried Zoologist Moth, I was curled up in my rocking chair to watch a movie in the dark. More than once, I caught myself sniffing my wrist and whispering “I love Moth” like in a trance while slowly rocking back and forth
  • Zoologist - Moth. Described by someone on here as “a smoky, honeyed floral fragrance.” Very unique scent. I had a tester of it and felt it has a delightfully eccentric vibe. Old church, old library, seance. Very enticing and the dry down...
  • He’s a big Zoologist fan- his favorite is Moth
  • The dustiness, incense, and sweetness from the honey make this one of my favorite fragrances and I am obsessed
  • Zoologist camel, moth Commodity gold Ambre sultan Jovoy jeux sont faits ELDO spice must flow, nostos

Cons

  • I didn’t get smoke from moth - it was more a sort of dusty floral, like Miss Havisham’s house might smell.
  • So far Moth is the only one I’ve found that I wouldn’t wear.
  • I don’t dislike it but I don’t particularly like it either, I found that slight sourness off putting. It smells dated to me, like liquorice or a scented talc.
  • I had a similar experience with Moth. I was so excited for a rich, complex, spiced fragrance that settles into a powdery, even dusty, note, but holy hell was it an unforgiving blast of mothballs.
  • Holy sh*t this is a *god* awful scent. You're instant blasted with moth balls, the smell of sick, powder, patchouli, and what I can only describe as the smell of a decrepit nursing home.

Zoologist - Moth. Described by someone on here as “a smoky, honeyed floral fragrance.” Very unique scent. I had a tester of it and felt it has a delightfully eccentric vibe. Old church, old library, seance. Very enticing and the dry down is lovely!!

I also really liked Moth, Beaver Maple, Rabbit, and Harvest Mouse.

Moth for sure has an incense note.

**MOTH** – ... Such a beautiful piece of art, while staying very much in the "hippy" esthetic. I am debating if I should get a bottle or another travel sized.
