Rhapsody in Violet - Violet Oud Perfume

5.0·3 Google reviews

This violet oud perfume captures shy, crystallised violet flowers as they encounter the rich tension of an oud accord and the powdery depth of iris root. Together they entwine under the moonlight, creating a violet perfume that balances light and darkness, innocence and temptation, the ethereal and the real -- just like a fairytale should be.

Design Philosophy

My aim with this fragrance was to create a modern ode to violet.

Violets are truly beautiful flowers with a gorgeous scent. The phrase 'shrinking violet' refers to the tendency for the smell of violets to 'dance' with your olfactory receptors: they flood them, then recede, then you smell them again. The scent of violet is not weak, but it is delicate and easily trampled. Creating a violet-centric perfume that was not fleeting, not weak and not 'vintage' – not your grandmother's violet perfume – was very challenging.
