Goat, from Wolf Brothers was released in 2021. The perfumer behind this creation is Laurent Marrone. It has the top notes of Goat's Milk, Mushroom, Osmanthus, Truffle, and Violet Leaf, middle notes of Cedarwood, Cloves, Conifer, Cumin, and Patchouli, and base notes of Agarwood (Oud), Costus, Fur, Leather, Oakmoss, and Vetiver.
Goat is a strange perfume, the notes listed are clearly deranged, but it does in fact not smell as weird as it would seem. It’s sort of a green, earthy, ashy scent which certainly smells unusual, but it’s not unwearable and nowhere near as animal is it looks on paper. To me, this earthy fungal note of truffle and mushroom dominates, its earthy facets highlighted by mosses and patchouli. Behind this dense thickness, a vibrant slightly metallic feel from violet leaf emerges, giving way to a furry sort of leather in the base. Does it smell like a goat? No. In fact, what it really smells like to me is the old, leathered hands of someone who rolls their own cigarettes, perhaps smoking one every 5 minutes of the day. That intense earthy ashiness is what puts me off this scent, but it’s not revolting by any means - just a very unique style.
