LIMITED EDITION
From the Heretic vault, Jasmine Smoke is not a bright bouquet, but a flower that breathes in the dark; a narcotic, creamy jasmine with a faint indolic whisper that feels more like skin than petals.
Jasmine has always existed between worlds. Blooming at night, Jasminum grandiflorum releases its narcotic perfume when logic softens and the senses take over. Long revered in ritual and medicine, jasmine speaks the language of the soul, sensual, dreamlike, and unapologetically alive.
Jasmine Smoke is an alchemical union of anima and animus, bloom and ash, light and shadow. A perfume of integration, where opposites fuse and transformation unfolds not through purity, but through fire.

HOW IT WEARS
In Jasmine Smoke, the flower opens in full indolic bloom: lush, animalic, and intimate. Dimethyl anthranilate, a naturally occurring component of jasmine and orange blossom, amplifies its paradox, sweet yet feral, floral and flesh intertwined. A soft radiance of orange flower oil lifts the opening before the fragrance descends into warmth and shadow. Tonka bean and patchouli ground the composition, their almond sweetness and damp earthiness anchoring jasmine’s volatility. Smoke emerges through frankincense, long burned to bridge the material and the divine, its pale resin rising in quiet spirals. Cistus labdanum adds leathery depth, while tobacco leaf brings a contemplative warmth, ritualistic and intimate. In the base, vanilla planifolia softens the smoke with balsamic sweetness as birch oil leaves a dark, smoldering trace, wood touched by fire, matter transformed.
LORE LOVES
Jasmine Smoke encompasses all the best things about jasmine: at first, its greenery, then its heady creaminess, and finally its indolic muskiness. The smoke in Jasmine Smoke isn’t super strong, just enough that it perfectly accents the sexier facets of the jasmine, drying down more resinous than ashy. Jasmine Smoke is defintely a warmer jasmine, like a jasmine vine against a sunset backdrop on a warm night. Sample through the Rhubarb Thief Discovery Set here.

This cannot be a limited edition fragrance—it deserves a permanent place in the collection! And while you’re at it, please make it in a larger bottle because 15ml is simply not enough.
I was so excited for my order to arrive. I bought Jasmine Smoke along with the Nocturnals Discovery Set and another Heretic discovery set, hoping to explore more of the collection and find the one. The moment I sprayed Jasmine Smoke… bam—I found it.
It opens with a sexy, intoxicating jasmine wrapped in the perfect touch of smoke. As it dries down, it becomes beautifully smoky and softly powdery, with just the faintest whisper of jasmine lingering in the background.
This isn’t your typical jasmine fragrance. It’s mysterious, elegant, and completely addictive. It’s the fragrance you never knew you needed until you.
