Heretic Parfum Nocturnal Tuberose is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Douglas Little. Nocturnal Tuberose opens with Neroli and Sichuan Pepper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Ambrette, and Labdanum. Heretic Parfum's Nocturnal Tuberose carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Prepare for a journey. This one starts with a bold, almost skanky floral kick, then smooths out into something surprisingly clean and intimate. It's divisive, initially, but many find the dry down utterly brilliant and uniquely captivating.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its initial boldness and moderate projection make it a bit much for a formal office setting, but the softer, more intimate dry down is perfect for a date. The blend of rich florals and subtly clean notes makes it adaptable for casual outings and even suitable for some evening formal events.

About

Opens with a lively jolt of neroli and a spicy crackle of Sichuan pepper, setting a vibrant, almost sherbet-like tone. This quickly mellows into a rich, heady bouquet of white and yellow florals, with creamy tuberose, sweet jasmine, and exotic ylang-ylang leading the charge. As it settles, a sophisticated base of earthy vetiver, musk-like ambrette, and resinous labdanum emerges, creating a soft, green, and slightly musky finish that's both clean and subtly sensual.
