Nosferatu
Nosferatu by Heretic Parfum is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with lilac and ambrette seed, moves into petrichor, violet, iris and cypriol and dries down to ambergris, oud and labdanum. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lilac Cool, powdery spring floral. Nostalgic and slightly soapy.
- Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
Heart
- Petrichor Rain on hot stone and dust. The smell of a storm arriving.
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Cypriol Also called nagarmotha. Smoky, leathery, earthy — a vetiver relative.
Dry-down
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
