Watch out, don’t buy this blindly. I was hooked by the notes, but it was a mistake: it contains undeclared ingredients that smell like insecticide. If a dragonfly smelled it, it would die instantly… There’s not a trace of a lake, and the ozonic touch is barely noticeable. Perhaps the clover and moss give it a wild air. Then it softens, becomes wearable, and loses its acidity. The trail and longevity are scarce. Zoologist perfumes are usually original, but this seems like a Dadaist work in the style of Duchamp, mocking the perfume industry’s multimillion-dollar business.

It reminds me a bit of Panda, with that earthy, salty, wet underside, though here it’s not as pronounced. Unlike that one, here a powerful, blended floral opening stands out. Yes, it feels powdery and creamy upon application, like those night creams some mothers used, which gives it an extra freshness. However, the longevity is poor. Update: It smells VERY similar to Daisy Eau So Fresh, but without that earthy part. (If you’re looking for something similar, this is your option).

A most pleasant floral blend (aldehydes?), beautifully combined. At first, something creamy and powdery. I can’t find any note that stands out in particular. It’s a clear and light fragrance. It turns citrusy before settling on the skin with a warm, comforting, yet still fresh scent. It reaches the skin level quickly, so it’s not invasive. It’s tender, lovely, and sweet. Imagine a pink limousine full of dragonflies in swimsuits moving silently among skyscrapers. I liked it. I’d use it if I could and would love for other people to wear it.

This Dragonfly has a delicate, subtle, and ethereal aroma, and it manages to recreate the habitat of these ephemeral insects: it smells of fresh water, clean air with a floral touch, like being by the edge of a lake in the spring at sunset. It’s a simple fragrance, but very well made, something nostalgic and different, that smells very good.
