Who Heliotrope Suits
Best for: anyone who wants a floral that reads powdery and dessert-warm rather than green or fresh, and who likes soft-vanilla-adjacent skin scents. Sample first if: you are sensitive to powdery or almond notes, since heliotrope's almond accord builds rather than fades and can turn cloying on some skins. Skip if: you want the opposite mood — a pick from Green will sit at the other end of the spectrum.
