Zoologist Sacred Scarab (2022) "Ancient Egyptian Kyphi Incense" 🔼

[@rogra2087]

☆Woooow Ram! Your exposition and amplification of the scent-landscape narrative is stunning my friend. You were giving me hermeneutic class flashbacks. Professor Ram-you should be on the Sultan's payroll-lol. But seriously, you're an artist-unequivocally so, just as much as what you review. Happy weekend to you and the whole Ram Frag Fam ♡🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏☆

[@seanp7871]

What he said 🔼

[@brenlynch4811]

Hahaha ditto @seanp👍

[@RamseytheRam]

Haha thank you Rogra 🐏🐯

[@vivid5591]

one of my favorite „desert“ scents. i also love desert sermons from toskovat. fantastic review

[@RamseytheRam]

Never smelled any Toskovat but I hear great things 🙏

[@dusanninic5372]

The best Zoologist creation. Many thanks to Sultan Pasha. Bravo Ramsey !

[@RamseytheRam]

Indeed Dusan ...hope you are well brother 🙏

[@JaredMiller23]

Thank you for another wonderful review - can’t wait to try Sacred Scarab! If it’s on the level of Anubis, well enough said. Sultan Pasha is on the Mt. Rushmore of perfumers for me.

[@scent_jeannie]

Yes! I’ve been looking forward to your review on this since you mentioned it a while back- I absolutely love this one and, like you alluded to, it definitely has a historical feel to it! Sultan pasha is a great perfumer! Really enjoyed his use of aldehydes here 🙏❤️🐏

[@RamseytheRam]

Amazing stuff.. basking in the glory of it tbh lol

[@davidhines5087]

Great review, Sir Ramsey need to check this one out thanks for reviewing much different fragrance excellent choice

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks for watching & hope you enjoy it!

[@dusanninic5372]

Please don't let the Sun's beam ruin all those precious juices

[@RamseytheRam]

Don't worry... I shut the blinds as soon as the video is done ☀️

[@nias.balata]

Very nice review .. now I'm very interested to at least find & try it especially after all what you mentioned about the perfumer Sultan Pasha 😊👍

[@RamseytheRam]

He is an absolute G

[@mikev880]

This is the only Zoologist that I've liked so far. Really liked. Hope all is well, looking forward to you starting to stream again.

[@RamseytheRam]

Yes I need to get some perfumers on the horn again it's been a while

[@rogra2087]

☆ By the way blue lotus mythology plays heavy into this scent. It is said that there used to be a narcotic varietal, unproven still. But, it is still currently used as a hypnotic/lucid dream tea today 🐏🐯❤☆

[@RamseytheRam]

Thats awesome info... thanks for sharing

[@PerfumePerry]

Definitely one of the better zoologist. I find I keep coming back to it because it's so interesting. It's still very wearable and well balanced.

[@RamseytheRam]

I can just see Sultan Pasha pulling his hair out trying to get that balance

[@basilfabian05]

T-rex was on my must smell list but after learning about the kyphi note in sacred scarab, its moving up to no.1. Probably gonna look for the attar 👍

[@RamseytheRam]

I would love to smell the Attar one day!

[@alichowdhury6790]

Go for the Attar, trust me a lot better, bit more resinous, smooth and soul touching someway..... I've sampled both, will go for the Attar myself!!

[@cgpetey]

Great review Ramsey! I too have a 10ml travel of this perfection. Takes me on such a journey. I have a full bottle of Squid and Seahorse. I really want a Moth next. Whare are your thoughts on Civet from the house. I find Civet very similar to Rochas Femme. Unfortunately I have the newest formulation of Femme but It is still amazing juice. Cheers! Keep up the great work!

[@RamseytheRam]

I reviewed civet on the channel! I love it...it's probably top 5 ...I need to rank them one day :)

[@dusanninic5372]

The Sultan of attars did a great job with this one ! My Scent Of This Day : Roja - Danger Pour Homme parfum Enjoying your video during my dinner. Cheers...

[@RamseytheRam]

Yes his Attars are amazing... want to sniff his Attar of Sacred Scarab soon

[@studious_nonchalance]

I am so curious about this scent. I have been fascinated by Ancient Egypt all my life. I need to get ny nose on this one. I love blue lotus!

[@RamseytheRam]

It's a special one 4 sure Thanks for watching 👀

[@seanp7871]

Think I might have to sample this one. Thanks 4 Sharing

[@RamseytheRam]

Absolutely

[@johnreasinger791]

Absolutely the Best Zoologist. Would love to try the attar version...i have 20 or so zoo travelsprays and plan on getting at least 10 more. I love this House and think Victors a visionary creative and a good friend. Soooo glad you finally reviewed this. Smell swell & be well!! xo PS ZOOLOGIST launched in 2014 with original formulations of Beaver (chris barlett) Panda & Rhino (paul kiler, both). Just FYI! 😊

[@RamseytheRam]

I agree with you John... more Zoologist reviews in 2025 for sure 💪🐏

[@edwardlawler9487]

Good day Ram. Sacred, Moth and Squid are good juice my friend cant go wrong with them!!!!

[@RamseytheRam]

Spot on... thx for watching 👀

[@BroadLyte]

This and Hyrax, I wear them both a lot. Zoologist doing good things❤

[@RamseytheRam]

A pretty good brand indeed

[@mastrofanis100]

Hi Ramsey. Can you make in the future a top conifer/menthol fragrances? It's my favourite genre. Top minty fragrances videos exist but I mean the conifer smell of ormonde man, Layton, or even Creed Royal Oud.

[@RamseytheRam]

I have done a this is not a top video on that exact topic check it out!

[@jacksonanderson3867]

My nose was not ready for the overwhelming civet opening haha. I do intend to revisit Sacred Scarab someday though! Speaking of ancient Egyptian scents with kyphi, I recommend checking out Le Dieu Bleu from Astier de Villatte.

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks so much for the rec!

[@phishky]

5 star review for a 5 star stunner. Been waiting for years for his sprayable line to release

[@RamseytheRam]

Thanks so much for the support and I agree. .. I just don't think it will ever happen at this rate lol

[@PerfumePerry]

I feel like you would enjoy Camel. Definitely my favorite from the brand.

[@RamseytheRam]

I own it!

[@brenlynch4811]

Cheers Rams, I do love Egyptian fragrance and indeed the whole history and artifacts pertaining to the country, however I’ve not tried this one , that said I was holidaying in Egypt with my ex some years ago , and at an outside restaurant a huge Scarab beetle flew onto our table lol , Amy’s mother had a freak out and was about to slam a side plate on the damn Beatle , a waiter rushed over to stop her and explained “ This is a very sacred and special Beatle to all of us Egyptians here and must not be harmed , to which she replied “ Oh I’m so sorry I’d no idea that it was a pet of yours here in the restaurant “ A typical Blond Moment from the Queen of Blonde Moments Hahaha . Cheers Rams great review, have a terrific weekend buddy. 💪🤛👊

[@RamseytheRam]

😂😂😂😂 What an awesome story and memory

[@rossmcfarlane6687]

Hi Ram, I have seen a vintage bottle of amouage for sale. It's in the old style bottle and in a red leather box. It only says 'cristal' but I am unsure whether it's mens or womens. I have been unable to find a comp. online so I wondered if you could shed some light on this. Many thanks.

[@RamseytheRam]

It could be either the men's or the womens...both were sold under that crystal label...I reviewed one on the channel...look up my silver review and you will see the crystal bottle for men If it's a different bottle style it's for women

[@rossmcfarlane6687]

@RamseytheRam i think it's a vintage gold man but in a different box, probably not the original presentation. What do you reckon that might be worth?

[@JONATHAN-db2ry]

Yes Squid is my number one. But Sacred Scarab is certainly up there. Cheers Ram ✌🏻😢

[@RamseytheRam]

Squid shocked me with how good it is...mighty be the best modern niche aquatic

[@JONATHAN-db2ry]

@RamseytheRam I agree totally. Doesn't get nearly the attention it deserves

[@Spinfish22]

Sacred scarab is fantastic. Have you ever tried Sloth?

[@RamseytheRam]

Yes but I didn't like it near as much as this or squid

[@Spinfish22]

That's fair. Prin is hit or miss for me​@@RamseytheRam

[@pasf4118]

Anubis, Spell 125 and Sacred Scarab are all here with me while watching this 😂

[@RamseytheRam]

Agghh yes I forgot about Spell 125.. What is wrong with me 🤦🏼‍♂️😂

[@pasf4118]

🤣 well it's a bit of a curve ball with that piny sappy bit, wouldn't expect to find it in Egypt but maybe you're already dead and that's why there's pines and incense🤔 also I love that floral accord that moth has, I just wish it would last longer Ram ...🐏

[@RichMitch]

Push the sun across the sky first thing in the morning? Tough gig that 🙃😂🐏🦆

[@RichMitch]

Do you get the halitosis vibe from prin's stuff?

[@islandspicehawaii]

The ancient Egyptians wore oils and ungulade to raise their vibration to be closer to God. I pray that humanity wakes up to this life of consciousness and spiritual existence in the very near future 🙏 ✨️

[@RamseytheRam]

Yes! I knew this would be your thing Spice! Let's all raise our vibrations brother

[@islandspicehawaii]

@RamseytheRam Yeah Ram... spiritual wealth is the direction we all must go together

[@justaddlight]

A friend had this on once and it was intriguing, but I'm not sure I liked it initially. He let me sniff it on paper and it was like 🤯 😂 Wish I could say that it was one of my favs from the brand but he never made me a sample. 🤣 Apparently I need new friends. 🙄 Git.

[@RamseytheRam]

You need to smell it on skin doni!

[@ryanx3584]

I was always let down by this scent. I think Pasha could have gone with something animalic, hot, stinky. Scarabs actually smell peach or plummy. Everything you could associate with a scarab beetle, Sultan Pasha went another way. Gently floral, aldehydic, bright. Disappointed in this scent, personally.

[@RamseytheRam]

I think you should revisit it... the animalic aspect is there with the civet

[@ryanx3584]

@RamseytheRam I have a small sample and I wore it only last week actually. I just don't find it animalic at all

[@RamseytheRam]

I think the Sultan blends it beautifully...but I get the civet especially in the opening

[@kingerfd3341]

Me too
