Heretic Parfum Dirty Hinoki is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2021, created by Douglas Little. Dirty Hinoki opens with Lemon, Cedar, Pine, and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Cypress and Hinoki Wood, and dries down to a base of Ambrettolide, Frankincense, Elemi, and Fir Resin. Heretic Parfum's Dirty Hinoki carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, invigorating scent that captures the essence of a natural forest. Just don't expect it to hang around for long; its fleeting nature makes it a love-it-or-hate-it affair.

About

Imagine a brisk walk through a conifer forest after the rain. Bright lemon and fresh pine burst forward, softened by a whisper of nutmeg and earthy thyme. As it settles, the comforting embrace of hinoki wood and cypress emerges, leading to a subtle, resinous base of fir, frankincense, and a hint of sweet ambrettolide. It’s a beautifully airy and natural woody experience.
