Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Violet Blonde EDP
A divisive yet beloved scent, Violet Blonde is pure glamour-puss vibes. Some find it a bold, sexy masterpiece, while others are put off by a 'harsh' opening or a prominent 'old-fashioned' powdery violet. It's a snatched-wig moment of sophistication.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Tom Ford Violet Blonde Oil
Violet Blonde radiates modern elegance with its graceful blend of violet, iris, and warm woody notes.
