Heretic Parfum

Nosferatu

Maybe it’s just a chemistry thing but this definitely didn’t do it for me. The initial spray is great and then letting it sit on my skin a while I really didn’t like it.

It brings me to the scene in Nosferatu where Thomas was lost in the woods. I immediately smelled the grassy aroma followed by petrichor and a lingering floral scent. It’s give the essence of Mother Nature in her most pure form. You think it’s light but it lingers extremely long. Don’t spray too much.

I’m not gonna lie, my expectations were low. I normally don’t go for floral hints but this blew me away. It is my absolute favorite. The petrichor especially is the highlight. Pure perfection.

Let me start by telling you how I found Nosferatu. I purchased the “Season of the Witch” sample box directly from Heretic. When I opened the box, it smelled absolutely heavenly! I thought it was one of my samples but nope! There was a sample card with Nosferatu sprayed on it and I immediately fell in love with the smell. It was powerful and intoxicating so I rushed over to Scentbird to see if they had a sample of Nosferatu as it was sold out on Heretics website. After a decent wait, my sample arrived today! I was so excited to finally have Nosferatu in my collection. I sprayed it on the inside of my wrist and was immediately greeted with a mossy, powdery, moldy smell. Not at all what the card smelled like from Heretic. I’m super disappointed, it’s like it’s not even the same perfume! I think I’ll order some from Heretic if they have it and compare the two because this sample from Scentbird is gross.

so beautiful, feels like sitting in a lilac garden with wet stones after it rained. my only complaint is that it wears off so fast on me
