Paris
Yves Saint Laurent Paris has been doing this since 1983, and nobody has done violet better since.

How it moves
It arrives on violet, bergamot, geranium and hawthorn — bright, immediate, gone before you have decided about it. Underneath, rose, violet, iris, jasmine and mimosa settle in and take over. It dries down to sandalwood, musk, amber, cedar and vetiver, close to the skin and hard to forget.
Who made it
Sophia Grojsman composed it in 1983, for Yves Saint Laurent in France. Sophia Grojsman's rose-violet masterpiece, one of the most celebrated rose soliflores of the twentieth century.
