Mellow Heliotrope is one of the three new fragrances for women by Bentley Beyond – The Collection. The scents are made for sophisticated women who refuse to take the back seat and appreciate unique luxury. Each fragrance is interpreting a flower picked on an adventurous trip.
How it smells
Mellow Heliotrope takes us to Peru. The floral-oriental composition opens with dazzling spices and fruits and lingers on the skin with delicately powdery and sweet notes.
Heliotrope – a purple Mediterranean flower– is a very feminine note, rather elegant than provocative. Master perfumer Karine Dubreuil Sereni says that she imagined a soft, sensual woman who thrives in intimate situations wearing it.

The bottle
Bentley’s design studio created a bottle that holds up the same standards and attention to detail as their luxury cars. Every scent has its distinctive colour, which is visible on the hand-stitched suede cap of the flacon. The bottle’s faceted satin glass is inspired by the signature cut-crystal headlights of the Bentley Continental GT.
