The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1962 by Houbigant, Quelques Violettes is a Floral fragrance that captures the essence of French elegance. The composition begins with fresh green notes and aldehydes, creating an ozonic and aquatic feel, before transitioning into a heart of violet, ylang-ylang, rose, and tuberose. The base notes of musk, sandalwood, and cedar add warmth and depth, rounding out the scent with a powdery finish.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a subtle yet lasting effect. The aldehydic top notes are bright but brief, so layering with the base notes can enhance its longevity throughout the day.
