Why we stand behind it
Across cultures and eras, the veil has been used to describe the boundary between worlds not as a barrier, but as a threshold. This fragrance approaches the veil as a sensory condition rather than a symbolic one.
At the core is a constellation of musks that echo the warmth and intimacy of skin while remaining abstract. Orris butter introduces a quiet powdery stillness, reminiscent of fabric, breath, and the rituals of passage. Vetiver and Atlas cedarwood provide a grounding current, while Patchouli and Veramoss deepen the structure. The Veil is light filtering through sheer material, a reminder of form before it dissolves. It does not reveal what lies beyond. It only suggests that the boundary is nearer than it seems.

What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Usage
Heretic Parfum fragrances are gender-neutral and made for everyone.
Application: They use plant-based natural ingredients, which means the scents are light and sheer. To increase staying power, you’ll want to apply the fragrance periodically throughout the day.
Layering: We also encourage you to layer two to three Heretic fragrances not only to increase the overall intensity but to help you create your next signature scent. Choose heavy and lighter blends to layer together, spraying or dabbing the stronger scent first.

Heretic
HERETIC PARFUM began with the choice to go against the grain and do something different. Our perfumes are composed of essential oils, absolutes, and concretes that are blended in organic, non-GMO grape and sugarcane alcohols using the same process used by perfumers hundreds of years ago - before synthetics took over the industry. The olfactory fingerprint of each individual plant, where it was grown and how it grew, gives these scents their character, mystery and beauty. These rare, authentic materials go far beyond the ‘cosmetic’ department and into the realms of homeopathy, ayurveda , mysticism and herbology.
