Heretic Parfum - Nosferatu Body Oil
- Description
A lightweight, fast-absorbing body oil made with six nutrient-rich botanical oils to deeply condition, soften, and nourish the skin. It leaves a luminous, velvety, silky finish and the scent of Heretic Parfum’s Nosferatu fragrance, created in partnership with Focus Features and the film Nosferatu. Designed to be worn alone or layered beneath perfume, the oil extends Heretic’s approach to fragrance as a sensory ritual.
FRAGRANCE
A naturally derived, chilling scent of wilting lilacs, velvety vegan ambergris, and petrichor.
BOTANICAL OILS
The blend contains sea buckthorn, meadowfoam, sunflower, evening primrose, raspberry, and rice bran oils, each chosen for its role in restoring and conditioning the skin.
Sea buckthorn, prized for centuries for its concentration of vitamins and antioxidants, brings vitality and renewal. Sunflower and meadowfoam provide lasting moisture with a weightless finish. Evening primrose helps restore balance, while raspberry seed and rice bran contribute essential fatty acids and protective antioxidants, leaving skin luminous, supple, and deeply conditioned.

ABOUT HERETIC’S BODY OILS
Heretic views fragrance as more than something worn: a ritual and an invisible companion with the power to transform mood, awaken memory, and reconnect people with the natural world. The brand’s body oils were created from that philosophy, nourishing the skin with botanicals while extending the quiet ritual of scent beyond the pulse points.
Heretic regards these botanicals as living materials: plants that have gathered sunlight, earth, water, and time before becoming part of a daily ritual. As the oil melts into the skin, it nourishes the body while the fragrance unfolds slowly with the warmth of individual skin chemistry, making an ordinary moment more intentional.
The ritual combines nourishment for the body with an invitation to slow down and a reminder that self-care can be an act of reverence. It reflects Heretic’s approach to skincare as ritual, fragrance as devotion, and nature in bottled form.
FAQ
Can I return perfume?
Not really. It's important to test the perfume before you buy. We sell samples of nearly every perfume, so you can test it on your skin before you buy it, or you can come into the shop to try perfumes for free. Once you purchase a fragrance, it's yours forever.
Are your perfumes safe?
All perfumes sold at The Marie-Marie meet the highest safety standards in the world through the regulation of all cosmetic products sold in the European Union. Independent testing is performed regularly, and standards are updated yearly. All perfumes must meet these standards to be sold legally in this region. We work with each brand to ensure these standards are met and continue to be met yearly.
Can I book a private consultation?
Yes. Our private consultations require a $300 non-refundable deposit per person per hour, which applies to the fragrances you select that day or in the future. You will have the store to yourself, led by your dedicated perfume expert, who will guide your experience. The consultation is limited to parties of three people and two hours maximum.
When will Marie-Marie be in the store?
Our precious mascot, Marie-Marie, is learning how to be a shop dog and how to behave like a lady. This means she will be in the store a few hours a week until she can handle the excitement. If you are lucky, you might see her soon.

About us
Not Our First Rodeo
Nicole has been working in fragrance since the 1990s at department stores and with her own line of candles. She opened her first perfume store in 2008 in Seattle and then a satellite location as a shop-in-shop here in Portland. Nicole and Henry are perfumers on their own and distribute many of the brands sold at The Marie-Marie.
Who is Marie-Marie
Marie-Marie Tropicana Spider Aesoph is Nicole and Henry's French Bulldog and our store mascot. She is one year old, small for her breed, with a blocky head, a funny long body, and a pouty lower lip. She likes eating farm-fresh greens and can have up to eight blueberries a day. She also loves perfume. We hope you get to meet her soon.
We love you Portland!
The Marie-Marie is dedicated to Downtown Portland. We got lucky and found this perfect little store already set up to be a perfume store, so we added a coat of paint, and we're here to stay. We can't wait to meet you all and can't wait for you to wear your new fragrances to the next wrestling match, naked bicycle ride, rose garden walk, or just to stay at home and binge-watch Battlestar Galactica for the third time.
