Dirty Rose
Dirty Rose by Heretic Parfum is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with pink pepper, nutmeg and cedarwood, moves into damask rose, elemi and blackcurrant and dries down to cypriol, labdanum, patchouli and vanilla. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
Heart
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
Dry-down
- Cypriol Also called nagarmotha. Smoky, leathery, earthy — a vetiver relative.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
