Woody
A new expression of a distinctive flower, Velvet Violet reveals an unexpected facet of violet. Inspired by velvet, a recurring signature within the Dries Van Noten wardrobe, the fragrance pairs the woody freshness of violet with the warm nuances of sesame in a subtle play of contrasts. The bottle extends this vision. Its semi-transparent glass in a deep purple hue reflects both the tones of the flower and the sheen of velvet. At its base, a graphic motif inspired by sesame and borrowed from the House’s collections expresses the dialogue between colour, texture, and fragrance.
An unexpected pairing of fresh violet and roasted sesame, Velvet Violet is a woody floral gourmand defined by contrast. Green, powdery violet is brightened with pink pepper, while toasted sesame and barley add warmth and depth. A rich base of vetiver and tonka bean creates a smooth, long-lasting finish, revealing a sophisticated fragrance that balances freshness, texture and comforting warmth. Contains 88% naturally derived ingredients.
Top Notes: Pink Pepper, Violet Leaf, Clary Sage Essence
Heart Notes: Toasted Sesame Absolute, Barley Roasted
Base Notes: Grilled Tonka Beans, Benzoin Resinoide, Vetiver Essence
“I wanted to create an incandescent violet poised between light and darkness, where the airy, powdery breath of the flower reveals the burning intensity of roasted sesame.” - Perfumer, Gaël Montero.
