By the editors · 2 min readViolet arrives immediately and stays — not the synthetic purple candy variety but something closer to the actual flower, with a slightly green, leafy quality alongside the petals. Iris reinforces this botanical character, adding a chalky, rooty dryness beneath the violet.
Jasmine and rose flesh out the heart without displacing the violet focus; they add warmth and roundness rather than competing for attention. Heliotrope in the base introduces a faint almond-powdery sweetness that softens the iris chalk.
The musk is light, keeping the fragrance skin-close and intimate. This is a violet-first floral with powdery iris depth — restrained in projection but clear in character. Best suited to cooler weather where the powdery elements read as comfort rather than heaviness.
