Smudge
Smudge by Heretic Parfum is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with atlas cedar, frankincense and sichuan pepper, moves into clary sage, juniper berry and tonka bean and dries down to pine, labdanum, patchouli, sandalwood and styrax. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Atlas Cedar Smoother, resinous cedar. Warmer than the Virginia type.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Sichuan Pepper Buzzy, citrus-tinged pepper. Tingles rather than burns.
Heart
- Clary Sage Softer, sweeter sage with an ambery undertone. Warm and herbal.
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
Dry-down
- Pine Sappy and bracing. Straightforwardly outdoorsy.
- 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.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Styrax Smoky, leathery balsam. Slightly rubbery and dark.
