The Story

Enchant your space with this home fragrance, an indulgence for the tastefully unhinged, in collaboration with the Edward Gorey Charitable Trust. The Haunted Tea Cosy is a sinister little spritz that smells like bergamot brewed in purgatory, with undertones of citrus and scandal from a spirit who still dresses for tea, bitter marmalade, and the faint regret of a teacup murder never solved. Ghostly. Steeped. Dusty-charm.

To collaborate with the Edward Gorey Trust was less like a professional venture and more like a long-awaited séance with a beloved muse. Gorey’s world, exquisitely drawn, wryly sinister, and curiously elegant, is an enchanting realm of mischief and magic.

It began, as these things often do, with a lingering odor in the east wing, something between old camphor and unanswered questions. Edward Gorey, ever the aesthete of dust and unease, sought not to eliminate the scent but to complicate it. In spirited cahoots with Heretic Parfum, he devised a series of room sprays for interiors where the air deserved better, places heavy with books, whispers, and upholstery of dubious origin.

Each fragrance is a gentle intrusion: ghostly bergamot, wilted herbs, overripe florals, and the polite suggestion that something strange has recently occurred (or is about to). They do not mask. They linger. Perfect for spaces where the guests are unexpected, the windows refuse to stay shut, and the wallpaper occasionally sighs.

Ghostly. Steeped. Dusty-Charm. The Haunted Tea Cosy is a sinister little spritz that smells like bergamot brewed in purgatory, with undertones of citrus and scandal from a spirit who still dresses for tea, bitter marmalade, and the faint regret of a teacup murder never solved. Perfect for parlors where nothing living has laughed since 1893.

The House

Douglas Little — perfumer and founder of Heretic — makes the provocative side of clean perfumery. The fragrances are naturals-forward, raw and sensual, and built to feel like the unpolished version of the plant they came from rather than its varnish. Every batch is handcrafted in small runs in Heretic's Los Angeles studio and blended with non-GMO sugarcane alcohol.
