Application Tips

Heriotorope is best applied lightly — its powdery notes are delicate and can quickly become overwhelming if overapplied. The vanilla base blooms gradually, so it's ideal for daytime wear when you want a scent that evolves subtly throughout the day.

The quiet intimacy of a parlor in the early 1900s, where powdery scents mingle with the warmth of a crackling fire and the subtle sweetness of baked goods.
