What does Violet smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Voters lean towards spring and fall, and daytime, business and leisure wear come up most often. It reads more masculine than feminine to most voters, though a good share call it feminine.

It opens with cardamom, pink pepper, nutmeg and black pepper, brightened by citrus notes. Violet and aromatic notes give the heart a floral, green side. Peru balsam, sandalwood and woods settle it into a woody, slightly smoky base.
