Tauer Perfumes Heraud is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Andy Tauer. Heraud opens with Cacao Pod and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Date and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Cedar, and Vanilla. Tauer Perfumes's Heraud carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Heraud is a divisive gourmand. Either it's a perfectly balanced, realistic chocolate and dried fruit dream, or it's a synthetic, dusty, chalky concoction that's far too sweet for its own good. An acquired taste with a loyal following, but definitely try before you buy.

Given its strong performance and rich, gourmand nature, Heraud isn't best suited for an office setting. It's a fantastic choice for dates and casual outings due to its inviting warmth and sensual character, but its sweetness might be too much for formal events.

About

It starts with a bright, sweet burst of bergamot and dry cacao, quickly giving way to a rich, powdery chocolate heart. This isn't your average milk chocolate; it's a more grown-up, slightly dusty cocoa with hints of syrupy dates and delicate florals. The base settles into a warm, creamy vanilla, woody cedar, and an underlying musky ambergris that adds a unique, almost animalic depth to the sweetness.
