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 - Splendiris EDT
A truly gorgeous violet and iris scent that's often described as 'artistic' or 'ethereal' - a true perfumer's perfume. Unfortunately, this fleeting beauty brings many to tears: the abysmal performance makes the high price tag a bitter pill to swallow.

Season and Occasion Fit

Violet Blonde

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong projection and sophisticated accords make it perfect for date nights and formal events, though some find it acceptable for the office if applied sparingly. For casual wear, it might feel a bit overdressed for some, but many still embrace its elegance daily.

Splendiris

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Autumn

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Splendiris's delicate nature and poor longevity make it suitable for casual wear or intimate dates where a personal scent is preferred. Its elegance could lend itself to formal settings, but its weakness might make it get lost in the crowd. The lack of projection makes it acceptable for an office if oversprayed, but it isn't strong enough for sport.
