What would it smell like if a flower had an orgasm?
It starts with a spark of pleasure; soft, tingling sensations of pink pepper and bergamot are woven together with bitter orange leaves and sweet coriander. Tuberose milk, orange blossom, and exotic grandiflorum jasmine form the full and sensual heart chord laced with delicate ylang-ylang. Ambrette seed creates the addictive and animalic musk that lingers on the skin with its rich, sweet, leathery undertones.
The embodiment of eroticism, Florgasm takes the overwhelming, heady scent of a bouquet of white flowers, couples them up with their freshly cut green stems, lays them down on a bed of crushed petals, and… you can guess the rest. Like a sunny afternoon romp that leaves you feeling freshly flush and perfectly primal, Florgasm is an enticing scent to enthrall the senses.

HOW IT WEARS
Florgasm begins bright and crisp, green and dewy; the fresh spice of pimento, coriander and pink pepper garnishing the juicy flesh of bergamot, orange and lemon. As it begins to dry down is when you pick up the florals, heady and sweet. Jasmine, ylang ylang, tuberose, orange blossom and linden are tangled together erotically in the heart, laid down on a bed of hibiscus seed/ambrette. The ambrette is plush and musky, like the fragrant equivalent of a soft mattress, and helps anchor Florgasm to the skin for 4-6 hours.
LORE LOVES
We of course love the concept of this fragrance, but it also smells absolutely incredible. Florgasm starts sparkling and fresh and ends warm and voluptuous, like a passionate love affair. It smells so true and realistic, spritzing it is an instant uplifting refresh. Just stunning.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Heretic – one who does not conform to the ideals or opinions of the masses; one who follows their own path.
Created in 2016 in New York by Douglas Little, Heretic Parfum is a fragrance house with a mission to show the provocative side of naturals and the dirty side of clean.
Based on the mysterious, sensual and feral aspects of nature, Heretic began with a conscious choice to do things a little differently. The fragrances in the line are all plant based, made up of a blend of essential oils, concretes and absolutes, blended with non-GMO safe synthetics and alcohols to create challenging, unapologetic, visionary scents.
“Natural fragrances are much like wine in that you can detect nuances of the plant, the soil, and its surroundings. They have characters that cannot be achieved with synthetic copies. These fragrances are alive, they create an olfactory fingerprint” – Douglas Little.
As Heretic boldly disrupts the status quo of the fragrance industry with their radical transparency, their fragrances delve into the esoteric world and the realms of homeopathy, ayerveda, and herbology.
All Heretic Parfum fragrances are cruelty free and vegan, and range from 100% natural to 47% natural.
