A warm summer night. The bright white full moon stands at its zenith as, in the distance, an engine roars to life. The sound grows louder, closer. Two headlights slice through the narrow road winding through an endless sea of pines. The air is thick with resinous, balsamic-green notes, laced with the metallic, smoky echo of a hot exhaust. Clad in heavy leather, the rider guides his old naked bike through the darkness. But he is not alone – an ancient energy rides with him, a poltergeist, untamed and fierce. Like a shadow, it moves beside him, unseen, almost hunting. The forest vibrates and stirs, alive with power, as if shaken awake from a deep sleep.


Top Notes: Juniper, Pine, Wormwood, Frankincense
Heart Notes: Champaca Flower
Base Notes: Birch Tar, Cade, Cedar, Vanilla, Patchouli, Labdanum, Palo Santo Fruit

Behind the Fragrance

"Take a late-night motorcycle ride through a lush, dense pine forest with Poltergeist — a fragrance inspired by the physical energy of spirits themselves. But this is no soothing forest, it's the forest alive, watching, rattling from the inside.
A Poltergeist is a chaotic spirit, a sacred disturbance that doesn't haunt gently. This fragrance is one of sharp, herbal charge wrapped in smoke and splinters. It begins with the volatile green shimmer of pine needle and juniper's gin-bite, cold and resinous, cut with the ghostly bitterness of mysterious wormwood (or Artemisia Absinthium, which is the key ingredient in the nefarious drink absinthe). Then the smoke comes: scorched birch tar rising in dark curls, cade oil smoldering at the edges, frankincense burning clean through the middle llike an invocation. Labdanum anchors it all with molten depth: thick, golden, slightly feral."

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.
