2 Violaceum

The notes are saffron, leather, violet and carrot, read as a single whole rather than split into layers. Violet brings the floral, powdery side, saffron adds spice, and leather gives a smoky, leathery depth. Carrot adds a faintly sweet, earthy touch.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close to the skin without pushing itself on the room. It suits both men and women. Amouage Suede Ibri and Zara Suede Petals have a close profile.
