Zoologist Orchid Mantis Sample
Try Orchid Mantis at your own pace
Here Zoologist Orchid Mantis, a perfume, is listed as a sample of 2, 5 or 10 ml. A note pyramid is not on file here, so this page makes no claims about how it should come across. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can.

Notes: not on file
Our record for Orchid Mantis stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding.

What you receive
What you get is Orchid Mantis in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. The vial closes tightly and fits in a pocket or bag, so you can test it wherever your day goes.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
For Zoologist Orchid Mantis we hold no season or occasion data, so try it in more than one setting. Wear it on at least three different days before you decide. Note what you think each time, and read your notes back at the end of the week.
Who it is for
There is no audience on file for Orchid Mantis, which leaves it open to anyone curious. Anyone who reacts strongly to certain notes is wise to test on skin first. If you are choosing a gift, testing it yourself first tells you what you are giving.
Why try Zoologist Orchid Mantis as a sample first
Choosing a bottle unsmelled is a gamble, and a decant takes the gamble out of it. To be clear, this is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants it from the original bottle and puts its own label on the vial; Zoologist plays no role.

Frequently asked
Is this a sample made by Zoologist?
No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Orchid Mantis from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Zoologist Orchid Mantis, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
How should I keep the vial?
Closed, upright if possible, and away from heat and direct sunlight, the same way you would keep a full bottle. That keeps Orchid Mantis as it was when we filled it.
The brand
About Zoologist
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.
- Started by Victor Wong in 2013; a Canadian company based in Toronto
- Each perfume carries the name of an animal
- A different perfumer for each perfume, named on the product page and the box

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
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.
