Real talk
The licorice is the tell. It threads through the violet like a whisper, not a shout, and it creates a fragrance that smells like nothing else in your collection.Violet Flame
Iris does powdery well. No hedging about it. The hyacinth keeps it from becoming a makeup compact, adds that cut-stem green underneath, a sharpness that prevents softness from curdling.Bas de Soie
