A summer-scorched, lightly spicy cluster of sun-touched heliotrope petals.

 

Eternity is in love with the productions of time.
– William Blake, Proverbs of Hell

 

In 2024 we introduced a Midnight Marzipan fragrance to welcome the longest night of the year. To mark this year’s longest day, we’ve concocted this companion: a summer-scorched, lightly spicy cluster of sun-touched heliotrope petals.

At first I get a wave of aldehydes (reminded me of Lilith Closet Raid) and an almost champagne sparkle with the heliotrope powdery glory stepping up immediately.  My nose does pick up the "light spiciness" , but cannot discern which spice.  If you love classic perfumes with a modern twist, you probably will appreciate this.  I got this for the heliotrope note and am not disappointed. Low projection, medium longevity with swoon period the first 30 minutes.

Super warm and pretty! I forget what heliotrope smells like, but it's not a "flowery" perfume. The spices smell like cinnamon and allspice to me. I can't tell what it's backed with, but it has a sandy desert kind of warmth. Very atmospheric.

I’ve realized I know nothing about heliotrope. Online descriptions mention notes of vanilla, cinnamon, marzipan, and cherry pie. 

To me, it smells zingy the way citrus does, with a hint of spice. Every year of my life, my mom has bought a mix of autumn-colored mums and put them in a planter by the front door, and this heliotrope blend smells the way I wanted them to smell.
