We are truly honoured to be participating in Premio Aromata 2026 PREMIO AROMATA, an international competition and exhibition celebrating artistic and independent perfumery, taking place October 8–10 in the beautiful city of Rome, Italy! 🇮🇹✨

This year’s theme, “Perfume: An Expressive Code. The Invisible Between the Lines,” explores the extraordinary connection between literature and scent. It invites perfumers to translate the written word into an olfactory language, capturing emotions, atmospheres, memories, and stories that exist beyond the pages of a book.

We are especially excited that our fragrance NSFRTÅ, inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula, is representing Dark Tales in this year’s competition. Drawing inspiration from one of the most iconic works of Gothic literature, NSFRTÅ brings the haunting atmosphere, mystery, and dark romanticism of Stoker’s world into the language of scent. We could hardly imagine a more fitting fragrance to represent us under this year’s literary theme.

As storytelling has always been at the very heart of Dark Tales, this theme feels particularly close to us. We have always believed that perfume can tell stories just as powerfully as words, sometimes expressing what words themselves cannot.

It is wonderfu to be part of an event that celebrates fragrance not merely as something beautiful to wear, but as an art form, a means of expression, and a language of its own. 🖤

Today, I spent the day digging through the Dark Tales archives, trying to figure out just how many perfumes we’ve actually launched since 2019. And what a fun little trip down memory lane it’s been! Some of them I’d almost forgotten existed. 👵🏻

And mind you, this doesn’t even include all our little side adventures, like exclusive perfumes hidden inside mystery boxes or other special projects. Every single one on this list was a standalone fragrance launch!

Now I’m curious… how many of them have you tried? Does anyone still have any of our really old creations tucked away somewhere? Which one has been your absolute favourite? ⏳

And perhaps an even more interesting question… is there anything you’d love to see us bring back from the dead? 🕯️

If you fancy a little journey through our history, I’ve also added the complete perfume archive to our website, with detailed descriptions of every fragrance we’ve ever released.

You can find it under “About & FAQ” → “Perfume Archives”.

Happy time travelling! 🖤

💀🕯️ HALLOWEEN 2026 — THE HAUNTED EDITION

Launching: 1st of October.

Four perfumes. Four hauntings.

MEMENTO MORI
Dark, spectral and strangely comforting. Spiced cherry and wh**ky against cold moss-covered woods, wool, smoky resins, oud, aged vanilla, amber and pale musk.
Dark Spicy / Gourmand.
The first chapter of a larger story — and a prelude to our upcoming gothic novel, The Cabinet of Lost Voices.

ALL HALLOWS’ EVE
Burnt pumpkin and smoky clove beneath ghostly incense, melted candle wax, caramelised apple, charred woods, leather and rain-soaked earth.
Resinous / Spicy / Gourmand.
Our returning seasonal Halloween Limited Edition.

HAUNTED MANSION
Powdered neroli drifting through bitter to***co and black chocolate, settling into old cedar, oakmoss and deep-aged vanilla.
Dark / Woody / Gourmand.
An original Dark Tales fragrance from 2019, later known as Château, now returning under its first name.

BLACK WATERS
A black tide of sea salt and ozone, scorched seashells and seaweed, sinking into vetiver, ebony woods and soft cashmere. Smoky, humid, heavy and fresh all at once.
Marine / Dark Woody / Smoky.

All four will also appear together in the Halloween Haunted Edition Discovery Set — 4 × 2 ml, limited to 500 sets only. Next Halloween will bring a different selection.

Previews and full product descriptions are already available on our website: bydarktales.com (Our Brands -> Dark Tales -> Limited Editions).

Sign up to be notified when the collection goes live. 🕯️

‼️Heads up: this is a limited edition launch only. One and only batch. This year we won’t be able to refill the stock once sold out, like we did last year, as we will directly focus on the next upcoming releases.

🇺🇸 DEAR U.S. CUSTOMERS, 🇺🇸

WE’RE FINALLY BACK.

After a long pause, Dark Tales is once again available in the United States through our wonderful U.S. retail partners, Polysnifferous (Jamie and Noah) and Stéle (Stéle).

This means you can once again discover and order a selection of Dark Tales and Villaniflōr perfumes directly within the USA.

Polysnifferous is now carrying Dark Tales updated stateside, making it much easier to return to old favorites, discover something new, or finally try the fragrances that have been waiting on your wishlist.

Their selection will continue to grow, including upcoming Halloween and Christmas limited editions, with more releases joining the collection throughout the year.

And there is more coming to New York.

Our new retail partner Stéle has curated a selection of Dark Tales and Villaniflōr perfumes that will soon be available to discover in person at their two boutiques in New York — NoLita and Williamsburg.

The collection is currently being prepared for Stéle and will be available in September.
