When shadows draw attention and deep sensuality becomes palpable. Coeur Noir is pure, simmering passion, inviting you to surrender to the depths of your darkest fantasies. The scent opens with rosewood notes - restrained, never overpowering - setting the tone for a composition that feels silky and refined. The name refers to the black, tar-like heart accord of labdanum, a resinous extract derived from a Mediterranean rockrose. Smoky depth unfolds, almost erotic in its richness - resinous, full-bodied, and warm. As a counterpoint to the opulent heaviness, Madagascan vanilla emerges in the base. It adds a sweet, creamy nuance - addictive and seductive. Vanilla not only soothes but is also known for its aphrodisiac qualities, binding the elements into a sensuous, arousing harmony.

The perfume is presented in a heart-shaped fabric box adorned with a silky ribbon.

Top notes: Rosewood
Heart notes: Labdanum
Basic notes: Madagascar Vanilla

Behind the Fragrance

Do you find beauty in the shadows and passion in the broodingly romantic? If so, we have similar inclinations and encourage you to join us as we let ourselves surrender to our deepest darkest fantasies. After all, as Emily Dickinson wrote, “the heart wants what it wants – or else it doesn’t care”. To celebrate this liberating and lascivious sentiment, our master perfumer has created a seductive fragrance to capture your forbidden emotions – Coeur Noir.

The name of the scent is a homage to its tarry black heart-chord of labdanum, obtained from a species of Mediterranean rock rose. Rich, resinous, round and warm, this is a fragrance that affects the wearer at the deepest level. The aroma is erotic yet deeply grounding and has been used in meditative and spiritual practices for millennia. The Egyptians believed labdanum's divine scent could even please the gods and evoke favor and protection.

However, as Coeur Noir's dark heart reveals itself to us fully, we will also encounter woody, balsamic and slightly smoky notes courtesy of benzoin, traditionally harvested from Styrax trees, while we receive piquant and simulating energy from black pepper. To further balance our luscious middle chord, we have added a base note of sweet, creamy Madagascan vanilla as a luxurious and addictive finale. Prized, not only for its soothing but also aphrodisiac properties, it ties all the components together into an arousing harmony.

So let your dark heart want what it wants and embark on an unforgettable love affair with this mischievous scent. Coeur Noir will serve as the perfect olfactory backdrop and linger deliciously on your skin, just like the scent of that mysterious lover after they have left your bed but still linger in your mind.

Heretic Parfum

HER•E•TIC. /’here,ətik/, noun: Someone who does not conform to the established ideals or opinions of the masses. Heretic is here to disrupt the status quo and for all those who seek something different. Since the founding of Heretic in 2015 in L.A., Douglas Little has carved out a niche for his modern and extraordinary collection of unisex fragrances. As the only child of professional photographers, Douglas began developing his sense of smell at preschool age and earned a dollar every time he correctly identified the scent of lavender and other plants. Years later, when Douglas realized that a transformation was taking place everywhere - GMOs in food, parabens in creams, and aluminum in deodorants being banned, while the fragrance industry remains hidden - he wanted to create something different: a perfume company that is authentic, sustainable, and radically transparent - who they are, what they make, and how they make it. Douglas sees a unique beauty in natural elements and plants that cannot be replicated. While other companies hide toxic or synthetic substances under the words 'fragrance' or 'perfume', Heretic is more than proud to openly and fully disclose their ingredients. But it’s not just about the 'clean' aspect, the botanical elements, or the scent profiles of the perfumes, but also about the holistic aspects. Douglas describes nature as wild, provocative, sensual, spiritual, cheerful, and passionate. It has a strong therapeutic effect, expressed through its combination of conventional perfumery and the Ayurvedic, healing, and aromatherapeutic properties of natural extracts in its creations. Thus, Heretic creates real, functional fragrances in their own way, because conformity is boring and fragrances should never be boring. Heretic is gender-neutral, vegan & cruelty-free.
