SAMPLES:
Aurora Borealis - Radiant and floral, capturing the eternal beauty of the Northern Lights.
Black Pearl - Dark wood, worn leather, sea breeze, milky coconuts, and sweet rum. “A pirate’s life for me..”.
Bloody Mary - Opens with a metallic, airy pomegranate note, blending into a warm, leathery undertone with a harmonious floral bouquet.
Fern Valley - Deep-green and ozonic. A photographic scent of a fern valley after the rain with a touch of petrichor.
Floating Candles - A tender darkness with a waxy, velvety base, soft greenery in the heart, and a subtle smoky, resinous touch.
Gothika - High gothic cathedral, century dust, stone walls, honeyed candle wax, incense, polished wooden benches, leather-bound books.
Haunted Circus - An avant-garde gourmand perfume with an industrial edge. It opens with a powdery, rubbery nuance reminiscent of balloons, unfolding into a buttery, salty-sweet popcorn and caramelized vanilla. Subtle notes of semi-sweet decomposing autumn leaves linger in the background, gently enveloped by the airy softness of a fog-making machine.
King’s Jester - Leather, rum, and royal tales pay homage to a punk band with a similar name.
NSFRTÅ - A dark and ethereal perfume, perfect for those who love rich, complex, and daring scents. It should feel like stepping into the chilling embrace of a forgotten abbey, where danger and temptation intertwine.
Obsidian Apple - Crisp apple intertwined with gentle green notes and a hint of amber.
Old Library - Leather-bound old books with powdery fragile papers, ancient wooden bookshelves, medieval monastery aura. Unchanged essence, now richer and deeper with softer accords.
Powdered Peruke - A rich, sweet vanilla scent reminiscent of caramelized brown sugar, combined with an intensely powdery texture and a beautifully warm, soft hay note that creates a truly unique olfactory experience.
Purple Veil - Soft powdery florals, smoky resin, and white musk with a subtle incense touch. A "nutty" entrance gives way to a melancholic story of a young bride meeting her elderly arranged husband.
Rosén - Opens with sweet, dried florals enhanced by vintage white musk. A touch of chocolate adds depth, while the dry-down of amber and sweet woods leaves a refined, lingering impression.
Witching Hour - Earthy and warm with a dark chocolate note, it settles into hints of autumn leaves and occasionally a fleeting forest mushroom scent, leading to a rich, velvety wood dry-down.
Yaga - A mysterious blend of pine and currant, evoking a fresh, zesty walk through a shadowed forest. Green, fruity, and untamed.

Every perfume from this collection interested me so I couldn't resist buying the whole box of samples, despite the price. As I started testing the perfumes one by one, my first thought was "wow, the website didn't lie it's really a good craft" and then, I was very satisfied to see how accurate were the descriptions of every perfume. The funny part is that, I didn't like the perfumes I expected to love and I adored the ones which were on the back of my wishlist.
For those who hesistate to make a first buy : I can say that, as someone who is passionate about niche perfumes and who lives in Paris so I have full access to a lot of incredible brands, Dark Tales is definitely a high quality brand. I could smell it right away. Every perfume is a journey, you'll smell like no one else. You might not like some perfumes of the collection but it will be completely base on your personal taste. Don't hesitate to give it a try. I know the brand is expensive but real quality has a price. The costumer experience is great, I really enjoyed opening my package and reading the books presenting the perfumes, and the delivery with Fedex was fast and reliable. 10/10 !
I'll definitely buy several perfumes troughout the year.
Gothic,dark, alluring and addicting. Every one of them was great but some of them were hidden gems. With every sniff, images crawl to your head taking you on a journey. Each fragrance has its own story. Great craftsmanship, depth and complexity!
Incredibly helpful and fast delivery. Top class service!
I absolutely love these! I loved every scent. It really shows what a craftmanship this is. 10/10 recommend!
A wonderful journey of scents.
