Neandertal is interested in challenging humanity’s innately egocentric view of the universe. We encourage thinking that acknowledges the limitations of the scale of human experience and that attempts to understand alternate ways of being.

Introduction

As a first step in this exploration, artist and founder Kentaro Yamada created Neandertal perfume as a way to explore the analogies between the lingering echoes of our past and that of olfactory resonance. The results are contemporary, highly original, and experimental fragrance structures, free from conventional and traditional perfumery standards.

“Perfumer did a craggily poetic job of composing these fragrances in a North European stone, lichen, and sea-spray idiom.” – Luca Turin

“Neandertal dark is a bit more the strong, silent type than Neandertal light, and pretty satisfying. Perfumer did a craggily poetic job of composing these fragrances in a North European stone, lichen, and sea-spray idiom.”

Luca Turin – Perfumes The Guide (2018)

“Perfumer did the logical thing with the marine animalic base of dark and slapped a huge rose on top, in the grand Arab manner, to give a high-contrast and altogether beautiful composition reminiscent of Edouard Fléchier’s Une Rose (Frédéric Malle, 2003) but with less woody-amber.”
