Description
Violet is said to be the odour of sanctity, as its sweet fragrance often emanates from the tombs of saints. This fragrance is a fresh natural violet, simple and discreet, with just a hint of lemongrass. The violet leaves embrace the corolla in a lovely sweep, their verdancy complemented by the soft purplish petals. The barely perceptible hint of green and earthiness, combined with a citrus note, prevents the scent from turning into that of a traditional violet bonbon. A delicate carpet of natural Orris butter, a very expensive ingredient in perfumery, softly and transparently prolongs the powdery, fruity and floral ionones. This impression of delicacy continues throughout the olfactory progression, with its youthful, feminine, subtle and vernal charm.
