CreamyWhat does Petit Violet smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated as good by those who voted, though the sample is small, so the ratings are only a rough guide. It reads as a feminine scent.
As a whole it runs fresh and citrusy. Violet brings a floral, creamy softness, vervain carries the freshness, and leather adds a slightly spicy depth beneath the sweet, fruity tones.
