FRAGRANCE STORY "The evening primrose does not seek the sun; it blooms under the moon, where the true light shines." -Japanese Proverb "I am a garden of black and red agonies, blooming like the night’s fragrant flower." -Sylvia Plath 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. We hope you will be as captivated by these nocturnal scents as we are, and uncover the rich symbolism and sensory magic hidden within their blooms.  FRAGRANCE NOTES Nocturnal TuberoseTOP: Neroli, Linalool, Sichuan PepperHEART: Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine, Rose, Gardenia, Orange BlossomBASE: Ambrette Seed, Vetiver, Cistus VI – The Lovers Card: Nocturnal Tuberose aligns with The Lovers tarot card, which evokes the duality of heart and head, love and limerence, light and darkness.
