MUSK DEER - ZOOLOGIST

MUSK DEER - ZOOLOGIST

Strong winter winds blow over the Siberian forest. The tall trees yearn for the return of summer, however short it may be. But at the base of several bare trunks, invisible love notes call for a future companion. Scented missives are secretions left behind by male musk deer. Long fangs give the male a demonic appearance, but they also play a role in the mating ritual - weapons in the fight with rivals for the love of a doe. A mate's dream sustains the solitary musk deer as it searches for remnants of lichen and moss among the cold, barren roots.

For centuries musk deer have been hunted to near extinction, coveted for their fragrant musk pods. The Zoologist respects this majestic creature, masterfully recreating the distinctive scent through a blend of synthetic musks and natural oud and florals. The result conjures up the animalistic desire of a lusty musk deer amid the alluring cold of a wintry forest, all captured without the slightest threat.
