    Not the violet you grew up with. This one opens cool, almost clinical. The powdery quality keeps it at a distance. That's the point.Purple Reign
    Guerlain does powdery florals like nobody else. If you've been burned by linear aldehydes or overwhelming florals, this is the version that actually works. Soft. Romantic.Les Secrets de Sophie
