    Real talk

    Some fragrances want to fill a ballroom. Sweet Violet is content with a reading nook. The violet is real here, candied and powdery, true to the flower.Sweet Violet
    Iris is not trying to be anything other than itself. The iris stays present throughout, never buried by sweetness or projection stunts. This is your quiet, botanical iris.Iris
