By the editors · 2 min readViolet opens with a powdery floral character that feels soft and slightly sweet against the skin. Jasmine and peony emerge quickly, adding a delicate white floral quality that brightens the initial impression without overwhelming it. Iris reinforces the powdery texture, creating a smooth transition into the base where tonka bean introduces a gentle vanilla-like sweetness. Sandalwood provides a creamy woody foundation that blends seamlessly with clean musk, resulting in a close-wearing dry-down that remains subtly floral. The scent projects moderately for the first hour before settling into an intimate skin scent with above-average longevity. Best suited for spring and fall daytime wear in casual or office settings where its soft presence won't overwhelm.
