The company says:
Beaver Eau de Parfum debuted in 2014. In 2016 we improved the formula by redesigning the linden-blossom top notes accord, removing the smoke and ash notes, and enhancing the base notes accord with even higher quality musks. We also introduced a light leather note, an attribute of the real castoreum musk.

Latest Reviews of Beaver (2016)

I’m also reminded of something that’s worth considering whenever you’re considering wearing a niche fragrance outside the confines of your home: Do I actually want this to be what I’m wearing if I somehow fall prey to death by misadventure?
For Beaver, the answer is probably not.
Because most accidents happen in the home, I’m off to scrub this one off with a mixture of bleach and ammonia. (PSA: never do this.)

Later on a restrainedly early ambery notes underpins and equally unobtrusive vanilla, with a somewhat generic woodsy note lurking in the background.
The sillage is moderate, the projection very good and the longevity an excellent eleven hours in my skin.
Nice in autumn, this is a castoreum-centric scent worth trying for lovers of this note. At times a bit too synthetic and a tad generic, it is otherwise a respectable creation. 3.25/5

Zoologist has another wonderful scent here. This is a definite contender for a go-to springtime scent: there are so many fun nooks and crannies to their scents, depths and complexity that other houses could take a chapter from. Projection is light to moderate, longevity is 4-5 hours. Really good and a strong recommendation to purchase a full bottle...as I have!
9/10


Still, I give it 3 out of 5 stars.



Sweetish and unusual, and certainly wearable, if perhaps not an everyday thing. And no disappointment for those with some knowledge of beavers who may be curious as to what a so-named fragrance might be like.
Among the 5 samples from this line that I received, I found this and Bat to be the most interesting.
