Real talk
Powdery violet that opens aldehyde-cold, almost sterile, then settles into something mineral and close. For someone who wants iris without the soft-focus portrait. That edge is the point.Violette Lysergique
The civet and oakmoss give this a bite most modern florals avoid entirely. It's vintage in the way a great jazz record is vintage, not dated, just honest.Essence Rare
