Nocturnal Tuberose -Polianthes Tuberosa- is steeped in mystery and allure. Its creamy white blossoms unfurl after sunset, releasing a heady fragrance that has been prized for centuries within the art of perfumery. Revered for its association with forbidden pleasures and the exploration of the subconscious mind, its intoxicating fragrance is said to promote heightened intuition and usher in profound emotional connection and eroticism. 

The lush, floral and almost narcotic scent of Nocturnal Tuberose is beautifully balanced by the delicately uplifting, bright and honeyed notes of orange blossom. Jasmine adds a touch of rich and exotic sensuality while velvety, softly green gardenia conjure both depth and radiance to this slightly spicy bouquet. Like the Lovers card, this transporting fragrance invites us to explore our inner world and embrace the magic found in choice and the unknown.

Nocturnal Tuberose VI – The Lovers Card
Like nocturnal flowers, tarot card decks with their origin in 15th century Europe, carry the power to connect us to the mystical and unseen. We have paired each fragrance in this collection with the card we consider to be the truest expression of the spirit of that fragrance. Nocturnal Tuberose aligns with the Lovers Card, which evokes the duality of heart and head, love and limerence, light and darkness.

"The evening primrose does not seek the sun; it blooms under the moon, where the true light shines." -Japanese Proverb

"I am a garden of black and red agonies, blooming like the night’s fragrant flower." -Sylvia Plath

 

In the Heretic’s Garden, nocturnal flowers reign supreme as Mother Nature’s most enigmatic treasures. Hidden under the veil of darkness, they seduce us with their intensely narcotic scents. Evolved to attract pollinators that are active at night such as the evocatively named Flying Fox Bat or the Death's Head Hawkmoth, these botanical beauties thrive in the moonlight and attract man and creature alike with their pale, luminous petals and hypnotic fragrance. Their mysterious flowering cycles have intrigued scientists for centuries, adding to their allure, as is their ephemeral presence—many of these fleeting florals last mere hours, creating a sense of urgency and wonder. 

As perfumers, we are also enchanted by these nocturnal blooms because of how powerfully they symbolize transformation, hidden beauty and the lure of the unknown. They remind us of the magic that flourishes in shadows, capturing our imagination with their intoxicating scents and ethereal glow. And we are not alone; for millennia, nocturnal flowers have been cherished for their symbolic and spiritual significance – from Daoist and Buddhist devotees using them as metaphors of impermanence, to Amazonian Shamans selecting certain varieties for their psychoactive properties to create a bridge to the realm of the gods.

We hope you will be as captivated by these nocturnal scents as we are, and uncover the rich symbolism and sensory magic hidden within their blooms. 

Our fragrances are gender-neutral and made for everyone.

APPLICATION: We use plant-based natural ingredients, which means our scents are light and sheer. To increase staying power, you’ll want to apply the fragrance periodically throughout the day.

LAYERING: We also encourage you to layer two to three Heretic fragrances not only to increase the overall intensity but to help you create your next signature scent. Choose heavy and lighter blends to layer together, spraying or dabbing the stronger scent first. View the “Layer With” section above for our perfumer’s recommendations.
