I do not tend to like violet, so I thought i would hate this. I admit, I was wrong, and this scent is very lovely. In spite of the name, it is soft and pretty and not dark at all; it is an...

Very violety at first. As it dries down you smell more of the vanilla. All three scents come together quite beautifully. I love the sweetness of the vanilla and the violet, but the gardenia lends a...

OH MY GOD, this is just waaaayy too sweet. It's almost making me gag, and I have a *high* tolerance for sweet (Bliss, anyone?). Nope, can't wear it. It's just so...aggressive in its sweet-ness.

I'm a big fan of this scent. I adore violet, and I like most of BPAL's violet scents. This one is violet with added vanilla. The two notes together produce an interesting, almost acquatic...

Wow! This isn't something I'd wear, but it evoked a memory response. My lovely, since passed, Irish grandmother would mix Palmolive liquid soap with some water to make me homemade bubblestuff....

Le Serpent Qui Danse, in the Love Potions category at BPAL, is my favorite BPAL fragrance. The notes are violet, gardenia, and vanilla --delightful! A jot or a tiny whisper is all you need, and...

<b>Le Serpent Qui Danse</b> is a lovely violet scent. The gardenia and vanilla tone down the violet to keep it from being too sweet and overwhelming as replications of violet often are. It's soft...

I think this a very beautiful, sweet, dark, sophisticated violet. The gardenia gradually becomes more prominant but the violets are always there. The vanilla is a soft, sweet background. Love!...

I'm not sure what's going on with BPAL violets??? This started all violet on me, kind of a powdery bitter violet. Le Serpent Qui Danse is one of the few oils where I got the magic morphing...

Goes on very floral at first, the gardenia and violet notes all but drown out the vanilla, though you can still detect a vague sweetness in the background. As I wear it, I notice the vanilla a...
