Launched in 2017, Vio Volta by DS&Durga is a Woody fragrance that marries the delicate sweetness of violet with the depth and warmth of patchouli and amber. Perfumer David Seth Moltz crafts a composition that oscillates between the ethereal and the grounded, creating a scent that feels both intimate and expansive. The powdery and balsamic notes add layers of complexity, while the smoky undertones lend an air of mystery.

Application Tips
Apply Vio Volta sparingly — its longevity ensures that it stays close to your skin for hours. The powdery and smoky notes develop slowly over time, so a light touch allows these layers to emerge naturally throughout the day.
