The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2025 by Sospiro Perfumes, Viola is a Woody Aromatic fragrance crafted by Dominique Moellhausen. It opens with the brightness of lemon and bergamot, which gives way to a heart of clary sage and rosemary, adding an aromatic freshness and subtle spiciness. The composition then settles into a rich base of cedarwood, sandalwood, vetiver, and ambergris, creating a warm and enveloping finish that feels both earthy and sophisticated.
Apply two sprays for a balanced experience — the top notes will last about an hour before giving way to the rich base. Viola is best worn close to skin rather than sprayed liberally in a room.
