We have some very sad news: Zoologist Bat, designed by Ellen Covey, is now discontinued.
If you have always wanted to purchase Bat, or you need to get a backup bottle, we suggest you purchase one from our stockists as soon as possible.
"Bat" is important to us, and we have planned to create a new Bat, but by a different perfumer. We hope to achieve the same greatness of the original Bat with the new one. Thank you for your support and forgiveness.

Like many others I’m checking back here every day, waiting for the reformulation to be released and PRAYING that it will smell identical to the original.

I will always keep my bottle safe in its box as a piece of art and a good, reliable friend.

Must be some legality. Too bad. Great fragrance! One of my all time favs.

Hi bat is the most important fragrance to me that I have ever come across. I have shared my bottle by the decant with everyone in the community and now it is almost gone. Please help me how do I purchase from your stock list? Helppppppp. Please also tell Ellen I adore her creation.

I have admired Bat as olfactory art, although I found its wet-plaster, rather mouldy character prevented me from actually wearing it. As an Arts & Olfaction Awards winner it surely stands out from the Zoologist range. For me, and I’m sure many others, it was the introduction to the brand, and I’m feeling a bit nostalgic.
For the same reason, I’m shocked at the news of creating a “new Bat”: wouldn’t that be a fake Bat? A poorly reconstructed Bat? A Walt Disney Bat instead of the real thing? Would it be what is otherwise called a “flanker”? I had thought that no self-respecting indie company would stoop to that kind of thing. Perhaps you’ll have a communication problem here. First off, to be sure, the idea doesn’t sound very forward-looking.
I would very much like to know the reason why Bat is discontinued. Did it not sell? Has there been a falling out with Ellen Covey (if she did retain any rights to the perfume)? Have materials in it been banned, become unavailable or too expensive? The rather dry announcement makes it sound as if it hadn’t been Zoologist’s choice to discontinue it, as if they had somehow been forced against their will. Some explanation would be welcome.

I just found out about this amazing fragrance and now it’s gone forever. My heart is broken.😭. Good bye forever dear Bat.💔 🦇

Please, please reconsider and bring back Bat. I stockpiled travel sprays while they were available, but they won’t last forever.

Fell in love with the sample and how it transforms. Came back for the bottle and it was gone.

Heartbroken! I never even got an e-mail. Never smelled anything like it, and now I fear I never will again. 😭

Good Day Mr.Wong,
firstly i have mixed feelings about Bat be discontinued. Not sure i was smart in rushing to buy Panda old formulation first or i should have waited a bit & bought Bat as my first Zoologist Perfume. My humble request will be don’t restart BAT with version 2. I’m worried whether the old magic can ever be recreated. In fact Panda is my First Niche Purchase.
I don’t regard starting with Zoologist as 1st niche Perfume, in my opinion i would recommend Imaginary authors or Zoologist Perfume to others who is interested to take the Artistic Path of Perfume wearing. .
Hahah lol, only you two guys can provoke an individual’s interest of continuing this path or scaring them. One way or another it is good to start with Zoologist Perfume, 1st perfume should be T-Rex.
i have to mention the Great regard I have for your House Along with Etat Libre d’Orange & Imaginary Authors for the Works & effort to Create the such extraordinary Olfactory Experience. You guys are the only Houses i will blind by all Perfumes full bottle.The most Creative,Unique & Avant Garde houses in Modern Perfumery in my opinion. Excellent.
I wish you will collaborate with this houses especially Josh Meyer of Imaginary Author. I just cant wait for the Olfactory Journey you two can bring. Animals i wished will be introduced for the future will be Komodo Dragon of Indonesia & Hyena. Can’t wait it. Gonna be rocking.
Excellent Work.
Thank you,
Mohan Saravanan

I am literally crying…. Wish I had bought a bottle (or 20) when I had the chance.

This is a tragedy! I can’t stand the way most fragrance smells on my skin but this is like living in a divine cloud. I just ran out and came to repurchase. Who are the stockists that carry it?
August 12, 2019
Bat was the best of the range. I ordered full sample set and it was the only sample used to the end, so I was sure it was “the one”, came here to purchase, only to find out it’s discontinued! WHY?…… :(
August 06, 2019
I can’t agree more to it. I am sad, too.

I’m deeply saddened by this news. Bat is the most unique fragrance and was perfect.
