Violette Precieuse by Caron, launched in 1913 and crafted by Ernest Daltroff, is a Floral fragrance that captures the essence of violet with an intricate blend of powdery and woody notes. The composition opens with the freshness of violet leaf and African orange flower before transitioning to a heart of iris, lily-of-the-valley, and jasmine. The base notes of vetiver, nutmeg, sandalwood, and raspberry add depth and warmth, creating a scent that is both delicate and enduring.
