Violet leaf opens cool and metallic, slicing through pear’s aqueous sweetness while rosemary injects a camphoraceous edge that keeps the top crisp rather than juicy.

By the editors · 2 min readViolet leaf opens cool and metallic, slicing through pear’s aqueous sweetness while rosemary injects a camphoraceous edge that keeps the top crisp rather than juicy. Heart blooms fast: ylang-ylang’s banana-like creaminess warms jasmine’s indoles, and iris dusts the bouquet with a dry, carrot-seedty powder that mutes the white petals. Base settles into clean skin scent; white musk and ambergris wash the woods in salt-brushed soap, cedar providing quiet pencil-shaving linearity while patchouli gives only a soft earth underline, never bitter. Projection stays within handshake radius for six hours, making it office-safe yet quietly floral through late afternoon. Wear it spring through early fall; humidity sharpens the violet-leaf flash and keeps the creamier heart from turning sugared.
