{"product_id":"heretic-smudge-sample","title":"Heretic Smudge Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eSmudge by Heretic is a perfume, and this page is about trying it in a small size. What it contains is not on record with us, so the description stops at the facts we have. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is not on this page\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur record for Smudge stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow on request works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sample is listed on request, which means it is not filled yet. Use the form on this page to let us know you would like Smudge, and we note it. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the decant\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get is Smudge in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. The smallest size covers a first impression, the largest gives you many wearings. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen to wear Smudge is not on record with us; test it on the kind of day you would actually wear it. Use it the way you would use a full bottle, on a normal day. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur record does not say for whom Heretic Smudge was made. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own. Whoever wears it decides whether it fits, not the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Heretic Smudge as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sample of Smudge answers the two things that matter: whether you like it, and whether you still like it on the fifth wearing. To be clear, this is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants it from the original bottle and puts its own label on the vial; Heretic plays no role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this the same perfume as the full bottle?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Heretic Smudge and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy does this page list no notes?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo note list is on record with us for Heretic Smudge, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow do I test Smudge properly?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpray it on clean skin, do not rub, and check it after a few minutes, at midday and in the evening. Repeat that on a few different days before you decide about a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heretic","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67706785857690,"sku":"DG-HER-SMUDGE-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67706785890458,"sku":"DG-HER-SMUDGE-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67706785923226,"sku":"DG-HER-SMUDGE-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/heretic-smudge-sample.jpg?v=1791656286","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/heretic-smudge-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
