Neandertal by Kentaro Yamada
Light - 90mL Handmade Collector Bottle
ABOUT THE VESSEL:
The unique shape of the bottle was based on a series of flint knapped hand axes from Norfolk in the United Kingdom. Stone tools like these have been used by mankind for over a million years and are one of our oldest and most ubiquitous design objects.
Neandertal stoneware bottles are slip cast using these flint knapped hand axes, then fired and vitrified at over 1400 °C in the kiln. Neandertal glass bottles are created using state-of-the-art laser 3D scanning and printing technology.
Each 90ml stoneware bottles is uniquely numbered digitally using an NFC chip to ensure its provenance. Scan your bottle using the Neandertal App on iPhone or any NFC-enabled Android device to see more information.
Although the stoneware bottles are strong they are not as strong as glass and care should be taken to protect this art object.
ABOUT THE PERFUME:
Neandertal light is in stark contrast to Neandertal dark, a journey that explores concepts of olfactory dissonance.
Radiant and expansive, Neandertal light concentrates on the present and as such, possesses a linear and harmonious structure.
Hinoki oil is expanded with muted green notes creating a horizontal landscape, an olfactory still-life representation of nature.
The binding quality of orris gives Neandertal light rigidity, form, and cohesiveness within the structure. This binding quality produces a powerful resulting force, encapsulating time and space around us.
Leather and ambergris add unparalleled natural beauty and familiarity, displaying both power and magnetism.
A contemporary portrait of the Neandertal mystery, this fragrance captures a suspended snapshot in time.
