- Key notes:
- oud

- rose
- Aromagroups:
- floral

Sirio is dedicated to the brightest star (Sirius) and an invitation (or a fragrant reminder) to look up at the stars and ponder over the question of where we came from and where are we going and also that us and our destinies are truly part of an infinite universe.
The brightest star in our sky has always been the focus of esoteric studies and those searching for answers to eternal questions.
Sirio is the secret destination of an enchanted path.
The perfume composition evokes a journey from Earth to the mysterious paradise with the ambrosial booziness of forbidden fruits in the opening. White musks shroud the fantasy fruit, floral attars (Centifolia rose), rich precious gaiac and oud in haze and give their aromas wings of an angel and stellar sparkle.

Celestial Robe traces her steps with this fougere, starting with the zesty opening movement: tart orange, lemon and rhubarb, with pine and grapefruit adding sharpness and clarity. Galbanum underscores the green aspects, as a bouquet of woods (cedarwood and guaiac wood) and plush musk and ambergris round off the choreography.

Perfumer: Sven Pritzkoleit
Australian spring arrives, bearing dazzling frocks of yellow blossoms to dress the bare golden wattle trees. Clouds of sweet honeyed fragrance, caught upon the breeze, carry an invitation inland, where a flock of cockatiels happily take up the celebration. Emerging from dusty nests, the birds are ready to preen and prance. On a wobbly stage of branches, vivid crests bop to the rhythm of their joyous songs. After a final encore, the flock takes flight. Alighting in a nearby field they share a delightful brunch, buzzing with the thrill of their stunning recital.
Zoologist Cockatiel exudes joy. A sunny burst of yellow acacia offers a friendly welcome. Dots of raspberry and tart rhubarb suggest a hint of mischief, like a pair of rosy cheeks beneath a golden plume. Finally, soft notes of musk and vanilla enfold the vibrant Cockatiel, like downy feathers cushioning the brashness of this cheeky bird.
Zoologist Cockatiel was formerly known as “Powder and Dust”, a perfume created by Sven Pritzkoleit, published under his own brand, SP Parfums. The creative director of the scent was Yana Lysenko. This perfume won the 2019 Arts and Olfaction Awards under the Artisan category. In 2020, Sven closed his perfume business and sold the formula of Powder and Dust to Zoologist to continue its legacy.
