Rhinoceros by Zoologist Perfumes is a Leather fragrance for women and men. Rhinoceros was launched in 2014. The nose behind this fragrance is Paul Kiler. Top notes are Rum, Pine needles, elemi, Artemisia, Sage, Lavender and Bergamot; middle notes are Agarwood (Oud), Tobacco, Pine, Immortelle, Cedar and Geranium; base notes are Leather, Vetiver, Amber, Sandalwood and Musk. Massive and stubborn, the Rhinoceros takes stock of his territory under the unrelenting sun. His weathered hide protects him from the merciless heat and eroding drum of sand in the wind, as he protects his domain. Rhinoceros Eau de Parfum establishes itself with a dry, slightly boozy rum note, like heat shimmering on the still savannah. The air crackles with lavender and sage. A warm breeze carries the scent of leather and rich tobacco. In the distance a rugged, dignified behemoth contemplates the vast expanse while amber, vetiver, smoke and sandalwood drift on the horizon. This substantial and captivating scent blends the traditionally masculine and high quality notes of leather, vetiver, cedar, bergamot, and sandalwood with the more mellow rum, tobacco, lavender, and agarwood. The result is a musky, well-balanced, enigmatic, and alluring accord. The nose behind this fragrance is Paul Kiler. Size: 60 mL / 2 fl. oz.; Unisex Top Notes: Rum, Bergamot, Lavender, Elemi, Sage, Armoise, Conifer Needles Middle Notes: Pinewood, Tobacco, Immortelle, Geranium, Agarwood, Chinese Cedar Wood Base Notes: Vetiver, Sandalwood, Oriental, Smoke, Leather, Musks

Rhinoceros by Zoologist Perfumes is a divisive niche fragrance that inspires strong confidence in devoted fans who appreciate its bold, unconventional character. However, the community widely acknowledges it contains challenging animalic notes that many find off-putting, making it unsuitable for most social situations. The fragrance appeals to a specific audience seeking artistic, unique olfactory experiences rather than mainstream wearability.
