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.

- DHDonna H.12/16/2024Reviews 1Products received 0Just OKI’m a fan of florals and thought this would be a good one. It’s nice but not great. It has no staying power whatsoever. Wears off very quickly. Glad I didn’t buy a whole bottle.00
- JDJESSICA D.12/12/2024Reviews 2Products received 0Beautiful and DelicateI tried this as a sample size, and immediately had to go out and buy the full size because it's that amazing. The scent is of fresh white flowers and greenery; very delicate and refined. Like walking into a flower shop, or a cemetery after it rains. Definitely in my regular rotation and easily layerable with other scents if you want to add more depth.My ratingsFloralElegantOfficeSpringFreshRefined00
