The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Verte Violette by L'Artisan Parfumeur was launched in 2001 and crafted by perfumer Anne Flipo. This unisex fragrance is a harmonious blend of violet, iris, and powdery notes, balanced with an ozonic and aquatic freshness that adds a modern twist to its floral heart. The contrast between the delicate violet and the crisp aquatics creates a distinctive olfactory experience, capturing the essence of a serene yet vibrant moment.

How to wear it

Verte Violette is best applied in light layers to allow its powdery and aquatic notes to blend naturally. The fragrance has a long-lasting base, so two sprays are sufficient for all-day wear. It reads better close to the skin rather than projecting widely.
