Description

“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.

Each bottle is handmade by the artist Kentaro Yamada.” – a note from the brand.

Neandertal Dark was launched in 2018. The nose behind this fragrance is Euan McCall.
