Composition of the fragrance:
The composition is exciting and full of contrasts. First, you’ll notice lemon juice and sensual pepper which evoke a romantic rendez-vous. They’re later followed by green notes of violet along with white jasmine, enchanting ylang-ylang and smooth amber. Sandalwood and cashmere wood provide seductive and mysterious base notes, accompanied by aphrodisiacal vanilla and elegant patchouli, and make the whole fragrance seem to linger forever.
Fragrance inspired by: One Thousand and One Night
A collection of stories called “tales of one thousand and one night” was first published during the Arabian golden age (8–13th century). It was written by a number of anonymous authors who contributed both romantic and tragic stories, comedies and poems, as well as erotic tales.
NOVELLISTA Violet Charade reflects the diverse and multifaceted nature of this collection. These Middle-Eastern stories are also closely associated with the legendary Scheherazade. “A library of books is the fairest garden in the world, and to walk there is an ecstasy.” (Scheherazade, One Thousand and One Night)
