Naturally derived fragrance brand [Heretic Parfum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poltergeist-eau-du-parfum) relaunched [Dirty Rose](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uncrate-x-heretic-fragrance-discovery-set) with a new 99% all-natural formula that pays homage to the 1920s. For this relaunched scent, Heretic Parfum founder, perfumer and creative director Douglas Little set out to create a funky, [androgynous scent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/windows-down-by-henry-rose).

Dirty Rose opens with a vibrant burst of pink pepper and nutmeg, layered over the warm, earthy tones of cedar. The heart leads into a rich bouquet of Damascena rose and black currant, complemented by the resinous depth of elemi. As the scent settles, the base of Dirty Rose unveils a sophisticated blend of cypriol, labdanum, patchouli, and the sweet, creamy notes of vanilla bean CO2, creating a lasting, complex trail that is both alluring and deeply comforting.
