Plum Blossom Chypre:
Messengers of spring arrive, bearing gifts that bring smiles to faces dulled by winter’s chill. The joyous song of the nightingale accompanies vibrant fuchsia-colored aromas of Japanese plum blossoms as they spread, infusing the tepid air. It marks a fleeting moment of emotional awaking: to some a time for celebration and fresh starts; to others, a countdown to a departure for unknown horizons.
Zoologist captures the onset of the Japanese spring through Nightingale, a pink floral chypre that will melt your heart. It opens with rich scents of saffron and rosy, powdery, tart Japanese plum blossoms, enveloping the core of the perfume like a luxurious silk kimono. Deep, warm aromas of oud, patchouli, moss, incense and ambergris seek to escape, seeping from the ruddy petals, to create a composition that’s complex and at the same time, simply desirable.

FAQ
THINGS WE THOUGHT YOU MIGHT NEED TO KNOW
-
How does the sampling program work?
Choose your samples by going to the individual product pages and adding them to your cart. For every 3 samples you choose, you will receive an email with a promo code good for a $10 credit toward your purchase of a full-priced bottle. If you experience an issue receiving the email or promo code, you can reach out to us in the contact form below.
-
Using the promo code
If you bought a set of samples and want to order a full-sized bottle, use your promo code at checkout for $10 off your full-bottle purchase. The code will allow you to make any purchase on the website greater than $48 and includes gift, home products or the purchase of additional samples.
The promo code expires 30 days after receiving it.
-
Can I sample everything?
We work with our brand partners to give you a superior sampling experience. We will only offer samples that are packaged in 2ml. (approx) spray containers. The old "dipstick" samples are a horrible nightmare and tend to spill all over everything, making it difficult to use more than once. Since not all of our brand partners are offering this spray sample option, we unfortunately are limited to sampling the brands that currently offer this type of sample - which is many of them, but not all. As things change we will update the product listings accordingly.
-
What if I want to try 5 samples?
You are welcome to try as many different samples as you would like, however, you will only receive the $10 promo code for purchasing 3 samples in a single order. You are welcome to purchase 2 samples, you just would not qualify for the promo credit offer. You can purchase 5 samples, and you get the one $10 promo code. If you purchase more than one 3-Sample Set, you’ll receive more than one credit. Just keep in mind that these credits cannot be stacked and applied toward the same bottle. Both promo codes would expire in the same 30 day period. Please refer to "Using the Promo Code" for details on what the promo code will cover.
-
I want to give the sample pack as a gift. How do I handle the email?
In the NOTES section at checkout, select "send as gift" and we will package the samples with a printed gift card that contains the $10 gift code.
