Violetta by Penhaligon's: A soliflore, created in 1976. It is a true classic. A dark, dusky and mysterious fragrance suffused with the achingly nostalgic purity of violets.
Violetta can be surprisingly green and sharp on some skin types. It is lush and velvety. The dark powdery qualities work very well, creating a strange and alluring floral drydown. A deep and incredibly mysterious fragrance where the sweetness violets are complimented by the green notes of garden geranium and this is beautifully supported by subtle woods and musks.
One of the most elusive flowers to capture the true essence of its potency. Barely tangible in a bottle, Violetta is a constant surprise.
