Heretic Parfum - Pistil Whip
What would it smell like to be mugged by a flower? "Late one night I was walking from the subway when I lived in NYC and I was mugged at gunpoint. I surrendered my wallet, was pistol-whipped and then left in a heap. After recovering from this traumatizing incident, I experienced something called an 'olfactory hallucination' that lasted for weeks. I would wake up to the smell of tuberose and gardenia, but the flowers were nowhere to be found. After seeing a few doctors I learned that traumatic events can trigger these scent-based hallucinations. It eventually went away, but the experience stuck with me and became the inspiration for this fragrance." - Douglas Little.
A play on words, Pistil Whip is an explosion of lush florals combined with verdant moss and wet stone. A hypnotic scent not restrained by gender, Pistil Whip was nominated for the coveted Fragrance Foundation Award in 2017.

- FFFae F.09/14/2024Reviews 15Products received 0Really liked itBoth me and my partner really liked it! The floral notes were nice and easy to layer with other florall single note perfume I have. I love that it’s based off of an old factory hallucination especially because from time to time I experienced those and I have definitely had a floral one, although it didn’t quite smell the same. I absolutely adored the concept and it’s a really nice option to have when you’re wanting something more light and funMy ratingsSpringEasy-going00
