Villa Erbatium Dracula EDP
Description
Dracula is a gothic rose with a sweet heart: black rose and fig leaf over coconut, tobacco, leather and vanilla. Villa Erbatium released it in 2025 as a collaboration with the Korean stage production of the musical Dracula, and it sits in the house's Mystery Noir collection. The composition pairs black rose with pink rock orchid, wraps them in coconut and vanilla, and lays them over sweet tobacco and a soft leather base. For all the name suggests, it is more velvet than menace. Wearers describe a floral, coconut-tinged opening that turns darker and earthier in the drydown as the tobacco and leather come through.
