Beschreibung
Dark ist ein Duft, der sich über die Konventionen der Parfümerie hinwegsetzt und mit seiner einzigartigen Komposition an eine verschattete Version des Neandertalers erinnert. Die Kopfnote besteht aus blättrigen, aromatischen und texturalen Empfindungen, die die Natur repräsentieren, darunter Bäume, Pflanzen, Blumen und Zitrusfrüchte. Pfefferbeeren und Weihrauch kollidieren anfangs mit diesen zarten Noten und erzeugen im weiteren Verlauf des Duftes ein transgressives Jodprofil. Sandelholz und Zedernholz bilden eine robuste Basis, während Oud und Leder animalische Tiefe und harzige Schatten hinzufügen. Erdige Rhizomstücke bringen dunklere grüne Facetten ins Spiel, und ein Akkord aus Vetiver, Patchouli und Moschus, der mit Amber ausbalanciert wird, verleiht dem Duft Lebendigkeit und Reichtum.

Behind the Fragrance
Neandertal dark and light
As a pair, Neandertal dark and light speak to the impermanence of the world around us; the rise and fall of different species, cultures and civilisations. They are also a reminder that our day to day experience of time, space and history is limited to our own human-centric experience of the world around us. It is believed that Neandertals lived in Eurasia for over 450,000 years, nearly 5 times longer than Homo Sapiens. Recent scientific discoveries have also revealed that Neandertals were sophisticated beings who mastered language, used fire, and created cave art well before our own arrival in the region. However, 50,000 years after we settled alongside them, Neandertals had all but disappeared, leaving much speculation about their ultimate demise. This pair of fragrances take us on an olfactory journey deep into humanitys past giving voice to a lost civilisation whose DNA lives on today only through ourselves, while also celebrating the future they were never able to see.
Neandertal dark
The darker, more shadowed version of Neandertal. A scent of movement that challenges perfumery conventions. The top note structure of Neandertal dark comprises leafy, aromatic and textural sensations, symbolic of nature; trees, plants, flowers and citrus fruits. Initially, pepper berries and incense clash against this delicate foliage accord, pushing, pulling and in time combining to create a transgressive and original iodine profile as Neandertal dark evolves. Sandalwood and cedar provide a durable foundation for Neandertal dark. The inclusion of oud and leather adds unusual animalic depth and resinous shadow. Earthy rhizome materials reintroduce the familiar green facets in a darker manner. An accord comprising vetiver, patchouli and musk is offset against amber bringing both vibrancy and richness to Neandertal dark.
