    This really doesn't smell incredibly 'violet' to me. It's still a beautiful well rounded perfume but I like a strong violet scent ( I have discovered ! )which this is not so I cannot say it is 5...

    I adore this fragrance. I find it incredibly comforting.... That very well could be because it smells just like a violet candy my grandma used to love. Either way, I always get compliments when...

    I'm really conflicted about this scent. I hate the opening. HATE it. This caustic version of violet turns my nosehairs positively crispy, like subzero weather. But something metamorphic happens...

    Although I said yes to buying this again, I will probably just get samples. Violette starts out violet/green for me, then I get the tobacco scent, then the dry down is pure honey. My husband...

    Yikes! It started out so nice, although typical. Just a nice violet scent, very traditional, although not easily distinguised from others (even BBW). I probably wouldn't have thought much of it...

    Very green violet scent, smells a bit artificial on me, not sweet as I would have liked...the Honey in this never emerged on my skin. did nothing for me. =(

    I actually find this sweeter than Violetta di Parma. On me, it's mostly violet, honey and a touch of green. Pretty and easy to wear, but the lasting power is lacking. Pleasant but ultimately not...

    Thank goodness I didn't get soup from this! I really like it a lot but it doesn't come across as a violet scent on me. It smells like tea rose, but with a sort of happy semi-tropical air. The...

    I honestly don't know what I am missing here. There's supposed to be honey, rose, bergamot in it? All I smell is cloying - heavy - nose stinging violet. Want a gorgeous violet check out DSH English...

    I guess I'm not a violet person. On me, Calypso Violette smelled dusty and old-ladyish. Not pretty at all.

    Someone said this smells of violets and unlit tabacco. They're right! A seductive yet ladylike scent, it just seems mysterious. This definitly isn't a sunshiney girl scent! It's more an after...

    Calypso Violette is a darker violet that can go edgy at times. Unpredictable on me, sometimes good, other times not good. I swapped mine away and will stick with my lighter and very predictable...

    I think this fragrance is one that will work on a small percentage of people. On me it dried down to strictly violet, and very powdery/soapy, and I was hoping for something a tad more...

    I'm not generally one to make snap judgements on fragrances based on one cursory sampling, but in this case I knew right off that it was not a "go" - disappointingly, because as a rule I like...
