    I agree w/ everyone when they say that this is NOT your typical sweet, girly violet scent (think Borsari's Violetta di Parma). That's what most intrigued me since violet-based fragrances are...

    I agree with Elyse, I smell celery too! It doesn't last too long in the celery phase and it only seems to do that on my skin not my clothes. The opening top notes remind me a little of Vol de Nuit,...

    Gorgeous and unique vintage scent for violet lovers. Shame about the lasting power though.

    I am just discovering the Caron's and I love them. I find them intoxicating, sophisticated and very feminine. Right up my alley! This is my newest fave. The scent actually reminds me of Quelques...

    Have I mentioned how much I love violets? Surely I have, and Violette Precieuse EDP is no exception to my violet lust. But if Violetta di Parma depicts a sweet, sunny, cheerful noonday violet,...

    This is the only sexy violet I know. I always love violet-scented things but rarely (never) do I leave the house wearing one of my violets (though I enjoy wearing them in the evenings at home)......

    Oooh, I <i>like</i> this!!! Manon hits the nail firmly and squarely in her review. I will only add that if Verte Violette was too green and Violetta Di Parma was too sweet for you give this one a...

    I concur with Manon's excellent description. Volette Precieuse is violets in their environs much like Muguet de Bonheurs is lily of the valley with leaves and dirt. I do smell the celery noted by...

    i LOVE the (well-described) rich, dark, violet aspect of this fragrance. however, something in it smells exactly like celery to me! i could do without the celery, but i don't mind too bad because...

    Pretty. Powdery. Lovely bottle. But Violetta Di Parma or L'Artisan Verte Violette is not. Available at Parfumerie Nasreen in Seattle.

    At first whiff, the violet is strong, heady, and very sweet. The scent then dried to a smell that reminded me of a fragrance I wore in 8th grade, Faberge's Tigress. I grew to hate it then and I...

    Precious Violet, launched in 1918, is a rich, complex fragrance that is unlike any other violet fragrance that I have tried. It begins with an almost caramelly yet slightly musty accord that opens...
