    After a sample, I quickly decided it was full bottle worthy. From the sample, I thought it was not very longlasting and very light, but I'm definitely getting greater lasting power and scent from...

    My original review of Violetta Di Parma had a number of spelling errors that I attempted to aplogize for, but it was removed. What I wrote was that I bought a decanted flask from eBay after...

    I can see why people are swooning over this one but IMO it's highly overrated and really not "all that". The violets don't seem authentic to me and it is overwhelmed by this stemmy floral...

    I love this. This is long lasting and fresh. When I was but a little bottle of potion my mother would get me in the shower in the mid- afternoons and then put "French Vilolets" on me - a cheap...

    This is a lovely, long-lasting perfume. When I first applied it, I was appalled! It was a nasty-icky fragrance with very little violet, and would not wash off! But after perhaps 30 minutes, it...

    Violetta di Parma is a fresh, slightly green violet scent, not as piercingly green as Penhaligon's Violetta, and with a candied sweetness to it - just slightly too much sweetness for me. It also...

    I have loved this scent for a long time. It is fresh, clean, feminine and not the least bit cloying as many violet scents are. Good lasting power and so inexpensive. It is a must for spring.

    Oh man. I got a small sample of this as an extra in a swap. I am in love. This is the MOSt beautiful,delicate, uncomplicated, cleanest violet out there. It is sunshine in a bottle.

    Violetta di Parma is nice, but it just doesn't make me smile like Devon Violets. There's a strange, almost chemical bitterness to VdP that keeps me from really enjoying the fragrance.

    I grew up in Maine, and at my grandmother's house, which was on the edge of the woods, I had free reign of a huge stretch of forest. About a half mile inside the edge of the thickest part, there...

    This is so simple and yet it‘s amazing, especially considering the price. It isn't my favorite violet; that would be Ormonde Jayne Ormonde Woman, hands down. But this is really nice. Candy-sweet...

    I absolutely adore this scent! If you are a fan of violets, like myself, this is a must! A nice, sweet, green violet. Not at all overbearing in anyway. Such a classic scent. They must be doing...

    Very unique scent. It's a delicate floral, almost candy-like in its sweetness. This is the perfect scent for someone who wants to give off an air of ultra-feminine girlishness. I picture a dainty...

    I hate to rain on this parade, but hey, weird chemistry strikes again. This was indeed cloyingly sweet on me (but not powdery), and so soapy it ended up smelling just like the soap solution we...

    Simple yet very pretty candied violet fragrance that is good for everyday use. It's not too sweet, either, as some violet scents tend to be. A touch of green keeps it fresh and very true to the...
