Violet Leaf in Perfumery

NEZ + the naturals notebook 

The herald of spring
A specialty of the Alpes-Maritimes region, the violet flower, with its delicate powdery scent, is the olfactory expression of the 19^th century. But the leaf has also been used in perfumery since the beginning of the past century to enrich the perfumer’s palette.

Today, the leaves are mainly produced in Egypt. After extraction, they yield an absolute with green, wet, earthy and leathery facets, which weaves in and out of formulas while remaining discreet.

Discover the many faces of this modest plant by journeying through botany, history, gastronomy, agriculture and chemistry without overlooking, of course, perfume and perfumers.
