Nocturnal Discovery Set

Experience Heretic Parfum’s Nocturnal Collection with the Nocturnal Discovery Set. Inspired by night-blooming flowers, each of the fragrances in this set heroes a different enigmatic floral. A Discovery Set for those who are drawn to the ethereal, enigmatic side of nature. 

NOCTURNAL COLLECTION
In the Heretic’s Garden, nocturnal flowers reign supreme as Mother Nature’s most enigmatic treasures. Hidden under the veil of darkness, they seduce us with their intensely narcotic scents. Evolved to attract pollinators that are active at night such as the evocatively named Flying Fox Bat or the Death’s Head Hawkmoth, these botanical beauties thrive in the moonlight and attract man and creature alike with their pale, luminous petals and hypnotic fragrance. Their mysterious flowering cycles have intrigued scientists for centuries, adding to their allure, as is their ephemeral presence—many of these fleeting florals last mere hours, creating a sense of urgency and wonder.
As perfumers, we are also enchanted by these nocturnal blooms because of how powerfully they symbolize transformation, hidden beauty and the lure of the unknown. They remind us of the magic that flourishes in shadows, capturing our imagination with their intoxicating scents and ethereal glow. And we are not alone; for millennia, nocturnal flowers have been cherished for their symbolic and spiritual significance – from Daoist and Buddhist devotees using them as metaphors of impermanence, to Amazonian Shamans selecting certain varieties for their psychoactive properties to create a bridge to the realm of the gods.

This set includes 3 x 2ml fragrance vials, including the scents:
NOCTURNAL TUBEROSE: Nocturnal Tuberose unfurls its creamy white blossoms after sunset, releasing its heady and intoxicating fragrance. This lush floral is delicately balanced by honeyed notes of orange blossom and sensual, soft green gardenia that conjure depth and radiance.
QUEEN OF THE NIGHT: The elusive Queen of the Night is a flower of rare beauty and romanticism, blooming just once a year for a single moonlit night. Here, its sweet, hypnotic scent intermingles with the luxurious warmth of vanilla and lush, exotic jasmine, while mimosa lends an uplifting green finale to the ravishing composition. 
ANGEL’S TRUMPET: The night-blooming Angel’s Trumpet is as enigmatic as it is beautiful. In this fragrance, its seductive and enchanting fragrance is paired with green freesia, dewy violet leaf, and opulent jasmine to make an irresistible nocturnal elixir.

LORE LOVES
Heretic’s Nocturnal Discovery Set is the perfect sampling set for those curious about the mysteries of nature. Anyone who likes white florals will like these fragrances, but these fragrances can also find favour amongst those who don’t typically go for florals due to their earthy, grounded edge. While every fragrance in this pack is a white floral, they are still very different to one another, allowing you to experience the variety that Mother Nature has provided us with. 

ABOUT THE BRAND
Heretic – one who does not conform to the ideals or opinions of the masses; one who follows their own path.
Created in 2016 in New York by Douglas Little, Heretic Parfum is a fragrance house with a mission to show the provocative side of naturals and the dirty side of clean.
Based on the mysterious, sensual and feral aspects of nature, Heretic began with a conscious choice to do things a little differently. The fragrances in the line are all plant based, made up of a blend of essential oils, concretes and absolutes, blended with non-GMO safe synthetics and alcohols to create challenging, unapologetic, visionary scents. 
“Natural fragrances are much like wine in that you can detect nuances of the plant, the soil, and its surroundings. They have characters that cannot be achieved with synthetic copies. These fragrances are alive, they create an olfactory fingerprint” – Douglas Little.
As Heretic boldly disrupts the status quo of the fragrance industry with their radical transparency, their fragrances delve into the esoteric world and the realms of homeopathy, ayerveda, and herbology. 
All Heretic Parfum fragrances are cruelty free and vegan, and range from 100% natural to 47% natural.
