What does Violet Woods smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than leaving a strong trail. Both ratings rest on a small number of votes, so they are a rough guide only.

As a whole it reads fresh and floral, with a green, leafy air. Orris root adds a powdery, creamy softness, while sandalwood and rosewood give it a sweet, woody frame. Oud sits behind them with a spicy, resinous, slightly smoky edge, and a synthetic touch runs through the accords. Amouage Meander and Penhaligon's The Revenge of Lady Blanche have a close profile.
