Bonbons A La Violette is a sweet, powdery, floral scent created for Men and Women in 2024.
Review
This scent has a muted sugary quality as it opens. Violet and Jasmine are brightened with Orange, and sweetened with Vanilla. Cedarwood and Moss add a gentle earthiness that almost feels incensy or sharp, but is intriguing. Something about this blend makes it dance between the aromas of sugary hard candy, candied fruit, and a delicate floral scent. Your skin will truly make the difference here. While it is sugary sweet, it never becomes too sweet or cloying, and while it is safe enough to wear to the office, it feels much better suited for occasions where you can let loose and be carefree and fun. It has been compared to Baccarat Rouge 540, but with a softer, sweeter, and noticeably Violet tone. Try this sample and let us know what you think!
Inspiration
Bonbons A La Violette is inspired by the carefree joy of indulging in your favorite Violet flavored candies.
Notes
Upon first spray, this scent smells like candied things. Bergamot and Orange bring a brightness to Violet and Jasmine. Vanilla adds a dose of sweetness, without making this a Vanilla scent, while Cedarwood adds a hint of woodiness that brings a gentle, but welcoming, sharpness. Mossy Notes and Amber blend to create a comforting warmth that works well with the sweetness.
