What does XIX: Victoriana - Heliotrope smell like?

It opens with heliotrope and raspberry: a floral sweetness lifted by a fruity brightness. In the heart, labdanum softens that sweetness with a spicy warmth. The base of frankincense and musk settles into a creamy, smooth finish.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. It reads feminine, and its sweet, creamy character leaves a warm, dense impression. Molton Brown Jasmine & Sun Rose and Zimaya Dar Es Salaam have a close profile.
