Bois de Violette
Eau de Parfum
by Serge Lutens



The Scoop
Mysterious violet from a dark forest, insolent and sensual, Bois de Violette is the most luxurious violet fragrance that we have ever encountered. You won’t find here lady-like powderiness and dainty sweetness of typical violet fragrances. This violet is not a demure Victorian beauty. It is a sultry enchantress, a forest nymph, a wild and dangerous seductress. Bois de Violette is also one of the softest and most feminine woody scents: the subtly candied cedar note here is buttery and supple, an enveloping, comforting note whose gentleness provides a charming balance to the come-hither aroma of violets. One of the greatest fragrances of all time, a modern masterpiece!

I quite fancy the smell of violets, so I was terribly excited to try Bois de Violette. I'm so glad that I did before paying the exorbitant price. There is some sickening sweet (and I love sweet scents) component in this and in Bois et Fruits that I cannot tolerate. I'll try this one more time, but right now I'm very disappointed.

A bit sweet. Lots of violets. Good quality cedar. Dry woods with violets. Not powdery at all.

I swear, wearing this scent for the first time it's as if someone has just kissed my neck. Uncanny. It switches back and forth, back and forth between parma violets: purplish, candy sweet, and deliciously artificial- and the real thing: muscular dark wood yielding rainy petals, green leaves. Settles powdery sweet on my skin, but on clothes/hair retains it's tangy, pupil-dilating kick.

Do you like violets? I've been a big violet fan ever since the 2005 release of Thierry Mugler's Angel Violet. Before that, I really didn't understand the scent. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was Angel Violet where the gourmand notes' presence became more apparent. I think Bois de Violette is an undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding Serge Lutens fragrances. Smell the the brilliant blend of violets and cedarwood. You can practically smell every nuance of every petal that was used. In terms of aromatic craftsmanship, the sheer olfactory pleasure, this perfume hits a new peak of professionalism. This is Bois de Violette, a great, great fragrance, a personal favorite.
