CreamyWhat does Heliotrope (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Bergamot, almond and petitgrain open it, with the almond bringing a warm sweetness from the start. Iris, ylang-ylang, rose and jasmine form the floral heart. Tolu balm, Peru balsam, tonka bean, musk and vanilla soften the base and carry it towards a spicy, oriental warmth.
Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind; summer is the least suggested. Evening, leisure and night-out wear lead. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Half of voters read it as feminine, though it is a unisex scent. Its profile is close to The House of Oud Almond Harmony and Asabi № 3 Intense.
