    Real talk

    This is going to smell like candy to some people. That's not wrong, blackcurrant can do that. But the violet keeps it from floating away entirely, and the vanilla drydown is actually sophisticated.Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Violet
    This is the scent you wear when you want to smell approachable yet put-tog ether. It's sweet without being immature, floral without being stuffy, and the patchouli in the drydown gives it just enough.La Vie Est Belle
