Helios Eau de Toilette (100ml)
Helios, inspired by the golden light that filters through the canopy, is an earthy scent with woody undertones and high notes of citrus and bergamot. It was inspired by lazy afternoons in Tuscany; leisurely strolls through sun-baked orange groves, far-reaching views of meandering forests, and vistas punctuated by the terracotta roofs of distant farmhouses.
We wanted Helios to embody the serenity and joy of relaxed days in the Italian countryside; to conjure up the sound of cicadas and laid-back lunches. We have included smoky top notes of citrus and bergamot contrasted with base notes of wood, amber, cedar, moss and musk. Whether you’re at home or on holiday, Helios will whisk you to Tuscany within an instant.
Launching with exclusive packaging, we collaborated with artist Sam Scales who crafted an illustration based on our vision.
TOP NOTES: Smoky, citrus, bergamot, orange, grapefruit, green
HEART NOTES: Floral, rose, lily of the valley
