EDP · 2015 · unisex

Zoologist is an indie fragrance house known for its animal-themed releases, each fragrance designed to capture a specific creature's essence through scent. Hummingbird, released in 2015, translates the delicate energy of these tiny birds into an EDP format.

Hummingbird opens with a bright, fruity floral assault: lilac, cherry, and pear mingle with lily-of-the-valley and violet leaf, creating an impression that's both tart and creamy. The heart deepens into honeyed florals, with honeysuckle and mimosa supported by ylang-ylang and peony, building a lush, honey-sweet middle. The base settles into a gourmand finish of whipped cream, coumarin, and sandalwood, grounded by musk and white woods that prevent the sweetness from becoming cloying. The overall effect is a creamy floral with fruity and honey accords that feel naturally cheerful rather than artificially sweetened.

This works best for those seeking a wearable gourmand floral that leans feminine without sacrificing balance, though the unisex construction gives it broader appeal. It's a daytime scent, particularly suited to warmer seasons when its brightness and honeyed fruitiness feel most appropriate. Hummingbird aligns with The Romantic, The Homesteader, and The Heirloom sensibilities.

Top · 0–30 min
Lilac
Lilac
Powdery, sweet, and nostalgic, lilac is a soft, springtime floral with a slightly medicinal, almost camphor-like edge that keeps it from being too simple. It's one of the harder florals to capture naturally (most is synthetic), but a good lilac accord reads as the first warm days of May. Delicate and quietly romantic.
Cherry
Cherry
Sweet, slightly almond-like, and bright, cherry in perfumery ranges from fresh and tart to rich and jammy depending on the variety used. It adds an instantly likeable, accessible sweetness that works in both light florals and oriental compositions. A crowd-pleasing note that requires skill to use in a way that feels sophisticated.
Pear
Pear
Gentle, watery, and slightly floral, pear is one of fragrance's most delicate fruit notes, with a clean sweetness that is closer to flowers than to heavy tropical fruits. It adds a soft, luminous freshness to compositions and pairs naturally with rose, iris, and light musks. Often the note that makes a fragrance feel effortlessly elegant.
Lily-of-the-Valley
Lily-of-the-Valley
Plum
Plum
Dark, slightly tart, and warm, plum has a wine-like depth that makes it more serious than cherry or peach. It adds a fruity darkness to oriental fragrances, with a slightly fermented quality that bridges fruit and leather families. Used to add drama and depth to floral-oriental compositions.
Apple
Apple
Fresh, crisp, and slightly cidery, apple reads as clean and natural rather than candy-sweet. Green apple is sharper and more aromatic; red apple is rounder and juicier. Both add an approachable freshness to florals and fresher orientals, and green apple in particular is a signature of certain classic masculines.
Rose
Rose
The queen of floral notes and the most-used ingredient in fine perfumery. Real rose is simultaneously velvety, honeyed, and slightly spicy, nothing like the synthetic candy version. Depending on the variety used, it can anchor a composition or drift through it like a ghost, adding warmth without dominating.
Violet Leaf
Violet Leaf
Citruses

Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Honey
Honey
Sweet, waxy, and faintly animalic, honey in perfumery has an almost skin-like quality, intimate and slightly raw. It's related to beeswax in the natural world, and both add a warmth that reads as close and personal. Honey bridges floral and oriental families, adding natural sweetness with a slightly dark edge.
Honeysuckle
Honeysuckle
Sweet, honeyed, and intensely floral, honeysuckle is the scent of warm summer evenings, a generous sweetness with a slightly green, living quality. It's more complex than simple sweetness: there's a faint nectarous depth that makes it feel natural rather than candy-like. A note of abundance and warmth.
Mimosa
Mimosa
Powdery, honeyed, and softly floral, mimosa has a warm, golden sweetness that feels like sunshine in a bottle. The yellow puffball flowers of the mimosa tree produce an oil that is simultaneously floral, woody, and slightly animalic. A quintessential note of the French Riviera and romantic Provençal perfumery.
Ylang-Ylang
Ylang-Ylang
Peony
Peony
Light, watery, and fresh with a clean floral sweetness that never feels heavy. Peony reads as modern and optimistic, the scent equivalent of a spring wardrobe refresh. It blends seamlessly with other florals and is a common building block in sheer, easy-to-wear feminine fragrances.
Tulip
Tulip
Clean, green, and very lightly floral, tulip is one of the more subtle and transparent flower notes in perfumery. It has a slightly watery, spring-garden quality without the sweetness of rose or the headiness of jasmine. Used to add a fresh, naturalistic floral quality to compositions that want to evoke a garden in early spring.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Whipped Cream
Whipped Cream
Light, airy, and sweet with a vanillic softness, whipped cream adds a dessert-like warmth that is less dense than straight cream or butter. It has a slight powdery sweetness that reads as indulgent without being heavy. Used in gourmand fragrances to add a playful, dessert-inspired sweetness.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Coumarin
Coumarin
The chemical responsible for the fresh-hay, cut-grass smell found in tonka bean, dewy meadow accords, and many orientals. It's sweet and slightly almond-like, creating a soft, nostalgic warmth. Coumarin is often used to smooth transitions between notes and give fragrances a powdery, cuddly finish.
Moss
Moss
Damp, green, and slightly bitter with a cool, shadowy quality, moss is nature's version of depth in perfumery. Oakmoss and tree moss both add a forest-floor complexity that anchors compositions in something real. Essential to classic chypre fragrances and the inspiration for countless green woody accords.
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
