The vast ocean swells and contracts, caught in the moon's relentless grip. Beneath the surface, a pod of squid emerges. Their strange, elastic forms push themselves frantically from the depths in search of food. But they are not alone. Predators rush forward, only to be blinded by sprays of dark, opaque ink. The hunt ends abruptly as a monolith materializes and greedily devours everything in its path. The gigantic sperm whale dives, leaving a temporary peace that sways in its wake.
Decades later, the relics of the battle are reborn. Lumps of ambergris, expelled by the whale and worn away by the salt currents, wash up on the shore. Waste? Debris? For the perfumer, this volatile substance is nothing less than a treasure.
Zoologist Squid sings the song of the sea – a melancholic tale woven of salty sea breezes, crisp incense and sweet, hazy ink, united by the alluring scent of ambergris. Like the endless depths that inspired it, this elegant scent ripples with mystery.
