What does Kerbside Violet smell like?

Violet leaf absolute gives it a cool, green edge, while jasmine absolute and ylang-ylang pull it towards a sweet floral side. Rosewood adds a woody base, and the earthy and powdery accords keep the scent dry and natural rather than purely sweet.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without filling a room. After spring, fall and summer follow, with winter well behind. Voters lean slightly feminine, though a fair share call it masculine. Lush Death & Decay (Perfume) and Une Fleur de Cassie have a close profile.
