Hyrax by Zoologist, as a decant
Zoologist Hyrax is a perfume that we decant into glass spray vials of 2, 5 or 10 ml. We do not have its notes on record, which is one more reason to let your own nose decide. A decant of 2, 5 or 10 ml lets you wear it on several days before you decide about a full bottle. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding.
On request
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands. Read how we fill your sample

On the skin
No note list is on record for Zoologist Hyrax; wear it and judge. We would rather give you a clean sample than a description we cannot stand behind. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.
Hyrax is not on the shelf as a sample yet. Leave your e-mail address in the form on this page and we know someone is waiting for it. When it can be filled, the sizes appear here. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
We fill Hyrax from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and label it ourselves. The sizes are 2, 5 or 10 ml. Keep the vial away from heat and direct sunlight, as you would a full bottle. Because it is a spray, the perfume spreads on skin the same way it would from the bottle.
Testing it
Nothing on record ties Hyrax to a season or a moment, and that makes a broad test the best one. Spray it on the inside of your wrist or elbow and do not rub. Apply one or two sprays to clean skin, without other scented products nearby.
Our record does not say for whom Zoologist Hyrax was made. Whoever wears it decides whether it fits, not the label. The sample is for anyone who wants to know a perfume before owning it. It also works for anyone who wants a small vial for travel or a bag.
The same perfume can be a favourite on one person and a miss on the next, which is the whole case for testing Hyrax first. The decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Zoologist is not involved, and it is not an official brand sample.
What you receive
We start with a full bottle of the perfume. Nothing is diluted, mixed or added.
Filled by hand into a clean glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml and closed straight after filling.
Our own label names the brand, the perfume, the concentration and the size.
A decant is not an official brand sample: no box, no original bottle, and we are not affiliated with the brands.

No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Hyrax from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
No note list is on record with us for Zoologist Hyrax, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
That depends on how long you want to test. The smallest vial is enough for a first impression of Hyrax; the larger ones give you many wearings, in different weather and on different days.
The brand
Zoologist names every perfume after an animal and gives each one to a different perfumer, whose name is printed on the box. Victor Wong founded the house in Toronto in 2013, and he is frank about the result: the brand calls its range creative, artistic and strong, not mass-appeal, and does not recommend buying a full bottle without trying a sample first. A 10 ml decant lets you find out whether Bee, Squid or Tyrannosaurus Rex is an animal you can live with.

Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
