Sapientiae Niche Heroin Sport is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Sanderson Santana. Heroin Sport opens with Bergamot, Lavender, Pink Pepper, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Iris, Almond, Cannabis, and Wormwood, and dries down to a base of Suede, Cedar, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Sapientiae Niche's Heroin Sport carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

A truly polarising beast; Heroin Sport isn't for the faint of heart. It's a challenging, unapologetic statement, but those who 'get' it find it utterly addictive.

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.

Its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, coupled with its distinct and challenging profile, make it less suitable for the office. However, its bold, complex character and evening leaning make it perfect for dates, nights out, and formal events where you want to stand out.

About

Heroin Sport kicks off with a sharp, herbal blast of juniper, rosemary, and lavender, spiced up with pink pepper and a surprising touch of hay. This green, almost bracing opening quickly deepens into a complex heart where bitter almond and powdery iris meet the notorious cannabis note, adding a dry, slightly intoxicating edge. The dry-down reveals a sophisticated blend of suede and cedar, grounded by earthy patchouli and oakmoss, with a hint of warm ambergris adding an animalic hum.
