About Violet
Violet by Crabtree & Evelyn: A Powdery Floral Classic from 1988
Launched in 1988, Violet is one of Crabtree & Evelyn's refined creations. It belongs to the floral olfactory family, yet its powdery, earthy character sets it apart from typical blooms.
Opening with green notes, the heart reveals violet and iris, while the base wraps you in earthy notes, amber, and musk. A graceful balance of light and shadow.
The fragrance opens with crisp green notes, like a breath of fresh garden air. Soon, the heart emerges—a lush violet supported by iris, creating a soft, powdery texture that feels both romantic and sophisticated.
As Violet settles, the base unfolds with earthy accords that ground the composition. Warm amber and gentle musk add a comforting embrace, leaving a subtle yet lasting trail that lingers close to the skin.
What makes Violet special is its understated nature. It never shouts for attention; instead, it weaves an intimate aura around the wearer. The interplay between the fresh top notes and the warm base keeps the fragrance interesting from start to finish.
Despite being born in 1988, Violet feels surprisingly modern. Its classic structure and refined sensibility make it a versatile companion for everyday wear, whether at the office or during a casual weekend.
Crabtree & Evelyn has crafted a timeless piece with Violet—a fragrance that still resonates with those who appreciate the art of subtle perfumery.
For those who love classic floral fragrances with a soft, powdery edge and an earthy undertone.
Violet is a quiet classic—elegant, unassuming, and full of character. It's an ideal everyday scent for those who prefer subtle sophistication.
