A brief moment...
Hélianthe means sunflower.
Sunflower *ponder* - it doesn't really smell like anything, does it?
Does it smell like sun? No, a little nutty, sweetish.
Good, then I'll take a look at the other fragrances.
Pear - WHERE was it hidden, please? Unfortunately, unfortunately, my synapses don't smell the slightest bit of pear.
Green notes - oh yes, Hélianthe is green, but more of a dull green, like dried, warm grass.
Exotic flowers - well, again, I would include ylang-ylang here.
Ylang-ylang is often used in the manufacture of perfumes (for example Chanel Nº 5), perfumed soaps and in aromatherapy. It is considered a medicinal oil in many countries. However, high concentrations or prolonged use can lead to headaches and nausea. EVERYTHING!
In Hélianthe, ylang-ylang is a key ingredient and just as "dangerous" as hyacinth in some other fragrances. Too much and it knocks you out. Unfortunately, you get the feeling of wanting to wash the scent off, but these intensely floral-sweet fragrances stick like tar.
Unfortunately, it doesn't help that sandalwood is mixed in. On the contrary, it unfortunately only "complicates" the whole thing.
I absolutely cannot imagine this fragrance on a MAN.
It really only takes a brief moment (in my opinion) for this fragrance to produce an "aha!" effect. A pleasant, Caribbean image emerges. Beach, flip-flops, rustling palm trees and a great dusky evening atmosphere.
But unfortunately this brief moment lasts. An extreme floral fragrance with bombastic longevity. Unfortunately, too much ylang-ylang for me

I like ylang-ylang, but in moderation please.
