    Crown Heliotrope is a Queen robed in a deep royal purple holding an orb and scepter. While this is not as beautiful or sophisticated or as glamorous as other purple flower scents with strong heliotrope note like Ysatis Iris or L’Heure Bleu or Esprit D’Oscar this is in the same family and it is a very beautiful classy powdery sweet and heady heliotrope. It’s very perfumy and old fashioned, smells exceedingly romantic even a bit sensual with a subtle erotic touch. It evokes a turn of the century romance. I visualize a 20 something year old woman in a townhouse in London around 1910 and she is not very social nor glamorous or traditionally beautiful. She is the only daughter of a widowed father. Her time is spent working as a seamstress and she embroiders very well. She is like the heroine in Henry James novel Washington Square Catherine Sloper the same protagonist in the Paramount film The Heiress starring Olivia De Havilland. She is sweet and cute but men do not trip over themselves to kiss her hand. She is a wallflower at dances but longs to be desired and admired and have many suitors and even lovers. But lately she’s been receiving heliotrope flowers in beautiful bouquets from a secret admirer. Roses would have been too forward and too much of a statement. But heliotrope has a more sensual vibe. It seems to suggest that he finds her very attractive and has picked her out as his next conquest. In the 19th century roses were for romantic courtships but heliotrope was so intoxicating that it turned women on. They were warned not to smell heliotrope for it’s lustfulness. Eventually her secret admirer comes to see her every time she’s alone. They become intimate but in the process get to know each other and learn to love one another. No heartache or deception like at the end of the Heiress. This is a happy ending. This scent is like the biggest heliotrope bouquet ever. It has a lot of heliotrope in it. Heliotrope is my all time favorite flower so for me this is pure Heaven. It’s so rich, so fragrant and dreamy. It really does smell realistically of heliotrope. Great air freshner for your home. On me only one spritz on my blous is enough. Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Too bad it’s been discontinued like so many of the fine fragrances from this line.

    A solifiore heliotrope fragrance. When I first tried Crown Heliotrope, it smelled like rubber cement or something to my nose, it was gross! When I tested it again the next day I definitely didn’t get that impression thankfully lol! It is what I presume to be pretty close to the true scent of the heliotrope flower. The opening still smells unappealing to me, it’s hard for me to describe…sharp and aldehydic maybe? The drydown is pleasant though. It doesn’t last long. Hard to find because it was apparently discontinued years ago.

    Unlike the previous reviewer I don’t find this suffocating at all.
    This is a classic style sophisticated perfume with a distinctive heliotrope note. It reminds me of old-style ivory soap with smoothly blended florals and a heliotrope “cherry” on top. I get no citrus at all. The heliotrope is more almondy than vanilla, and more warm and lush than the brighter L.T. Piver heliotrope. This is a complex fragrance, L.T. Piver is not.
    I blind bought this as it was a clearance item. It is no longer produced and therefore is hard to find. I would wear this for more formal events, the sort of occasions when I would normally break out the Amouage. It’s a classy number.
    Edit – Wearing this again but on a cooler day I now also get oodles of nutmeg with the milky almondy top note. Beautiful.

    This is a very very powdery heliotrope scent with some citrus/green notes in the opening. One spray is enough to suffocate (literarily) myself.
    I never smell any heliotrope before, so I don’t how real this scent is. But comparing with L.T.Piver’s, Crown Heliotrope follows a more serious way of presenting the main heliotrope note. It’s much richer, with dense floral notes, less almond or vanilla sweet. The typical almond bitter note only appears clearly towards the later phase when those powdery floral notes calm down.
    Be careful when apply, it’s very easy to get too much.
