Marlou Heliodose is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Stéphanie Bakouche. Heliodose settles into a heart of Tiare Flower, Musk, Galbanum, and Indole. Marlou's Heliodose carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Heliodose is a deeply sensual, confidently indolic white floral. It's divisive; some find it a masterful slice of summer, others find the animalic musk and potent florals a bit much. Definitely not for the faint of heart, but if you love a bit of funk, it's a must-try.

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

This perfume's strong, animalic white floral nature, and its leaning towards a 'dirty' or 'sweaty' skin scent, makes it less suitable for formal or office settings. It excels in date scenarios and casual outings, particularly in warm weather, as many reviewers associate it with summer days and nights.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine sun-baked skin after a long day at the beach, adorned with a potent tiare flower arrangement. Heliodose opens with a creamy, almost tropical white floral burst, intensified by a dirty, compelling indole note. Galbanum injects a green, slightly fresh edge that quickly mellows, giving way to a warm, animalic musk that clings to the skin, leaving a lasting impression of sun-drenched sensuality.
