Helios

Laboratory Perfumes Helios is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2024. Helios opens with Smoke, Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Orange, settles into a heart of Rose and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Amber, and Vetiver. Laboratory Perfumes's Helios carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Helios is a divisive one - a smoky, green citrus that some find unique and uplifting, while others are put off by its boozy, ash-like dry-down. It's an experimental scent that isn't for everyone, but those who love it praise its fresh, earthy character.

Its moderate projection and fresh, yet distinctive, aroma make it generally office and casual safe, though the smoke might be polarising for some. The unique smoky-citrus profile isn't typically suited for formal events but could work for an unconventional date.

About

Helios opens with a sharp, vibrant burst of bergamot, grapefruit, and orange, swiftly intertwined with a distinct, almost bitter greenness and a curious wisp of smoke. As it settles, subtle hints of rose and lily of the valley emerge, softening the edges of the initial intensity. The dry-down reveals a grounding blend of vetiver, cedar, and oakmoss, with a persistent smokiness and a clean musk creating a sophisticated, woody finish. It conjures images of a sun-drenched forest after a distant bonfire.
