New Notes Bonbons A La Violette is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024. Bonbons A La Violette opens with Bergamot and Orange, settles into a heart of Sugar Cane, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Oakmoss, and Vanilla. New Notes's Bonbons A La Violette carries a Favourite verdict, a violet floral-led wear.

Prepare for a divisive violet experience. Despite the sugary name, this scent is a complex woody, mossy affair with a strong BR540-esque backbone that some adore and others find misleading. Not a safe blind buy, so test first to see if you get bonbons or Baccarat.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and impressive longevity make it less suitable for office wear where discretion is key. The sophisticated, warm character makes it ideal for dates and formal events, though its unisex edge keeps it versatile enough for more casual evening outings. Sport is out - this is far too heavy.

About

Opens with a bright, albeit fleeting, citrus burst of orange and bergamot, quickly softening into a powdery heart where violet takes centre stage but doesn't steal the show. Sugary sweetness rounds out the floral notes, before settling into a deep, long-lasting drydown of robust oakmoss, cedar, amber, and vanilla. This creates a woody, earthy warmth that underpins the delicate violet.
