Snowy Owl
Zoologist Snowy Owl takes flight with a fresh wintery burst of mint and green galbanum, then swoops down into a soft snow-like blend of coconut, vanilla and musk with hints of wood and earth from cedar, iris and incense. A staff favorite fragrance.
From Zoologist
A thick carpet of silver envelops the landscape, untouched but for the dazzling reflection of the sun. Snow stretches as far as the eye can see, while a bitter wind rolls silently across the sky, its hush barely broken by the powerful beat of an ivory wing. Despite the stillness of the arctic, the snowy owl senses a flutter beneath the icy crust far below. Through snowy tunnels voles scamper, oblivious to their fate. A warm glow stirs within the breast of the majestic bird as it dives, confident in its mastery over the frigid kingdom.
Zoologist Snowy Owl glides on with a minty opening, while the gentle warmth of musk combines with beautiful hints of snowdrops, lily of the valley and iris. Sweet coconut and woody vanilla swoop in to surprise and entice. Snowy Owl merges cool vitality with exquisite softness in a captivating scent, ideal for those who aren't afraid to take what they desire.

Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.

My second favorite scent, to me it kind of smells like wet moss and morning dew on grass. I like it a lot
It smells like moss and forest and wet, cold rock, and snowy mornings and mysterious forests and mist. It's incredible how realistic and descriptive the scent is. After a few hours on the skin, the mossy, wild, outdoorsy scents fade, and there's a sharpness left. At first I didn't like it - I thought it smelled more like a classical (or even cheap) perfume, but the more I wear it the more it grows on me. It smells like perfume, but there's still something wild and coniferous hiding underneath. It's a lot of fun to wear but I don't want to wear it every day.
