Vampire enthusiasts and Nosferatu fans look no further for your next signature scent!
Heretic Parfum is known for its unusual scents that appeal to a gothic demographic. The owner, Douglas Little, started this business because he has always been interested in creating unique and enchanting scents. Heretic has plenty of other spooky perfumes featured on its website, including Poltergeist and Monster Spray. Recently, the company has gained even more attention with its collaboration with Nosferatu and Focus Features.
The new scent, Nosferatu Eau de Macabre, has been all over social media with reviews seen on Tiktok and X. As the release of Robert Eggers' Nosferatu approaches, people are scrambling to get their hands on the new limited edition perfume that comes in a 30 ml bottle. The smell is described as “an encounter with an apparition in the cold, damp caves of Count Orlok’s castle."
The ‘NOSFERATU’ cologne is now on sale.

If you’ve ever wondered what Count Orlok smells like, you don’t have to wonder anymore. The reviews say the perfume smells cold, deeply earthy, and haunting. It has notes of lilac, ambrette, petrichor, violet, and a few other floral scents. The petrichor is the scent of rain falling on soil or concrete, giving it its earthy smell. People who have received the perfume have left only positive reviews.
Nosferatu Eau de Macabre is currently on the website, selling for $125, excluding taxes and shipping. In addition to the perfume, Heretic is also selling Nosferatu flasks containing the signature scent. In purchasing the perfume, you will receive a special newspaper that not only describes the story behind the scent but also gives some background on Nosferatu, as well as pictures from the movie set.
Nosferatu is the gothic retelling of Bram Stoker's Dracula. The story follows the nightmare of Count Orlok (Bill Skarsgård) and his obsession with Ellen Hutter (Lily-Rose Depp). As Orlok's vampiric evil spreads across the land, unforeseen horrors fall upon the people of 1838 Germany.
Nosferatu is only in theaters on Christmas day.
