Neandertal us™ explores human history through universal olfactory profiles that exist across many cultures. 

Neandertal us invites self-reflection: What makes us who we are? What cultural patterns did we create for ourselves over the course of history? Neandertal us is a universal celebration of life; a distillation of our collective journey to what we know now as modern human.

A familiar yet contemporary fragrance, Neandertal us contains spices, greens, and fruits foraged from natural environments used throughout history for ceremonies, remedies, culinary purposes and perfumery. Deeper, smokier tones such as vetiver, sandalwood, oud, and musk create a well-rooted familiarity and sense of security, while a citric and green woody profile creates energy within them.

Neandertal us and them form a visual and conceptual pair that elicit a thought-provoking, olfactory experience, which speaks to our ancestral sense of belonging while addressing the tension created by one of mankind’s oldest and simplest understandings of identity. An ageless notion, in a constant state of flux, that we engage with everyday. It is an issue that carries as much weight today as it has throughout human history.

Neandertal light is in stark contrast to Neandertal dark, a journey which explores concepts of olfactory dissonance.

Radiant and expansive Neandertal light concentrates on the present and as such, possesses a linear and harmonious structure.

Hinoki oil is expanded with muted green notes creating a horizontal landscape, an olfactory still-life representation of nature.

The binding quality of orris gives Neandertal light rigidity, form and cohesiveness within the structure. This binding quality produces a powerful resulting force, encapsulating time and the space around us.

Leather and ambergris add unparalleled natural beauty and familiarity, displaying both power and magnetism.

A contemporary portrait of the Neandertal mystery, this fragrance captures a suspended snapshot in time.

Top notes: Hinoki, Coriander, Galbanum & Violet Leaf

The darker, more shadowed version of Neandertal. A scent of movement that challenges perfumery conventions.

The top note structure of Neandertal dark comprises leafy, aromatic and textural sensations, symbolic of nature; trees, plants, flowers and citrus fruits.

Initially, pepper berries and incense clash against this delicate foliage accord, pushing, pulling and in time combining to create a transgressive and original iodine profile as Neandertal dark evolves.

Sandalwood and cedar provide a durable foundation for Neandertal dark. The inclusion of oud and leather adds unusual animalic depth and resinous shadow.

Earthy rhizome materials reintroduce the familiar green facets in a darker manner. An accord comprising vetiver, patchouli and musk is offset against amber bringing both vibrancy and richness to Neandertal dark.
