Us by niche perfume house Neandertal is a 2020 release from perfumer Euan McCall. The line "explores fundamental existential questions like, 'Where do we come from?' and 'Where are we going?' by attempting to understand the human experience from outside ourselves" through perfumery and olfactory experience. Us has an aromatic profile of aromatic, woody, fresh spicy, amber, warm spicy, balsamic, earthy, oud, and smoky accords.
From the brand:
"Neandertal us™ explores human history through universal olfactory profiles that exist across many cultures.
Neandertal us invites self-reflection: What makes us who we are? What cultural patterns did we create for ourselves over the course of history? Neandertal us is a universal celebration of life; a distillation of our collective journey to what we know now as modern human.
A familiar yet contemporary fragrance, Neandertal us contains spices, greens, and fruits foraged from natural environments used throughout history for ceremonies, remedies, culinary purposes and perfumery. Deeper, smokier tones such as vetiver, sandalwood, oud, and musk create a well-rooted familiarity and sense of security, while a citric and green woody profile creates energy within the formula."
