Violet Leaf Absolute

Culture

Violets, belonging to the genus Viola, have been admired in European gardens for centuries for their delicate flowers and distinctive green fragrance. While the small purple blossoms are well known, the leaves themselves carry a unique fresh, earthy aroma that has long attracted perfumers.

During the nineteenth century, violets became especially fashionable in European culture. The flowers were widely used in bouquets, perfumes, and decorative arts, symbolising modesty, affection, and quiet elegance.

The scent of violet leaves later found a place in perfumery, where it was valued for its green, slightly powdery character. The fragrance evokes the feeling of fresh spring foliage and shaded garden paths.

Today, violet leaf remains appreciated in fragrance and aromatic blends for its distinctive green note and its long association with garden traditions.
