About
Psychedelic Love by Initio Parfums Prives is a Floral fragrance for women and men. Psychedelic Love was launched in 2017. Top notes are Ylang-Ylang and Bergamot; middle notes are Heliotrope, Hedione and Bulgarian Rose; base notes are Myrrh and Sandalwood. "The signature of this narcotic bomb lies in three essential ingredients: rose, hedione and heliotropin.While hedione activates the brain regions linked to pleasure and the libido, heliotropin goes even further.Equally tender and illicit, this crystalline powder hides its intentions well. Beware of its creamy, powdery and floral facets, wavering between vanilla and almond!Used in over doses, heliotropin becomes a psychoactive substance. A forbidden shiver rushes over the skin. A substance under strict regulations.Its possession is strictly controlled by law, because heliotropin is used for the chemical synthesis of mda, a prohibited drug and substitute for ecstasy.Confronted with this diabolical indulgence, no one is safe from an olfactory obsession that can soon become a real addiction!" - a note from the brand.
