"Squid is a unisex aquatic-aromatic fragrance by Zoologist Perfumes, launched in 2019 and composed by Céline Barel. Rather than presenting a clean, breezy marine style, it explores the ocean through darker imagery: brine, ink, incense smoke, and a mineral ambergris effect. The structure moves from spicy-salty brightness into an inky, resinous heart before drying down to a musky ambergris-benzoin base. Its character is unusual and atmospheric, balancing experimental niche storytelling with surprising wearability. Within Zoologist's portfolio, Squid is widely regarded as one of the brand's most distinctive deep-sea interpretations."
