What do reviewers say about Slowdive and Bee?
Slowdive smells like summer condensed into a bottle. The orange blossom neroli opening is gorgeous, but the real story is that beeswax tobacco heart. It is rich without being heavy, sweet without.Slowdive
Bee is not a polite fragrance. The beeswax opens like a candle you've just blown out, and the ginger adds real kick. It became Zoologist's breakout because it smells like something alive and working.Bee
