    This violet sucks. Maybe because I sniffed it after smelling Annick Goutal’s Violette, a masterpiece. This was, yes, I agree with the Aquanet comment. It was alcohol then fruit. Yes, fruit. Not listed in the notes but this is a slightly violet sweet fruity scent that didn’t last worth a damn. Glad I only bought 2 ml.

    The violet part is lovely. True violet. I wish it weren’t anchored by Aquanet hairspray.

    Smells so pretty, like perfect violet candies. It’s not overly sweet though because there is something fresh and green about it. I only wish it had better projection and longevity but for under $30 and a 3.4 oz bottle you can treat it like a body spray and use it liberally.

    I TOO SEEM TO SEE VIOLET AND POP OUT COMES THE CREDIT CARD. I HAVE DECIDED IT IS A CHILDHOOD IMPRINT KIND OF THING. THIS VIOLET REMINDS ME OF “OLD SCHOOL” VIOLET IN A GOOD WAY. NOT TOO HARSH. LOVE IT ON MY PILLOW AT NIGHT.

    I am starting to maybe understand why I seem the be the only man obsessed with violets. I keep searching for more and more violets to realize that I have very little sense of powderyness that everyone talks about and mentions. Violets, to me, smell like turpentine or some harsh chemical that I have become addicted to. This is no different. So I probably should stop recommending violets to people, as I do not get any sense of what they really smell like. Not sure why I like that harsh chemical smell from violets, but I do very very much. Its also crazy that I do not smell anything of what people mention and violet perfumes are consistently screechy to me. Now, violet leaf is a different story, and I believe I am smelling what everyone else smells. Could this possibly be that I had surgery to correct a deviated septum, maybe?
    Anyway, this is nice at first, but nearly gone in 2 hours.

    I never have enough of violet based scents.
    For me Borsari Violetta di Parma remains unsurpassed for composition, sillage, lasting power … but this does not prevent me to explore new paths in search of variations on this classical theme.
    Molinard’s Violette is an easy, crisp, young, informal violet. If you are in awe of its smell because you think it’s old ladyish (we all have had an aunt smelling of violets) or outdated, then this Violette may fascinate you.
    It has a very bright opening, with a lovely mint undertone which accompanies the violets throughout the end.
    It never becomes powdery as I said, it never gets dull, the sparkling remains – alas – for not too long as the lasting power is modest.
    But this scent is so cheap that you can easily afford a full bottle and spray in abundance.
    It will catch all those who would love a violet scent but feel quite shy towards it.
    Very young, informal, perfect for spring and summer too.
    VERY LOVELY

    Ahhh smells just like a freshly opened roll of Giant Parma Violet’s!
    Sweet, powdery and cool. Great for any violet lover!
    Thank you Mary-Jayne for the sample.

    On my skin, Molinard Les Fleurs Violette is bitter sweet.
    The violet flower here is very sugary candy sweet, but on my skin, the strong violet leaves and musk give this fragrance a distinct EQUAL dose of bitter green. On my skin, this scent alternates between super sweet and very bitter green.
    I don’t get very strong powdery notes….it’s more of what I call a “chic powdery” vibe, gentle, lightly fluffy, instead of heavy talc powder.
    I agree that Violette might be good for layering. It’s very strong at first, then settles to a moderate level of silage. On my skin, Violette lasts forever until I shower it off.
    Due to the consistent very bitter green aspect, I think Violette could even be unisex.

    If you are fond of layering your fragrances, this is perhaps one not to miss out on.
    Sprayed as an individual fragrance straight form the bottle, I found it a tad too simple. It is nice in as much that it did what it says on the label with a distinct sense of quality but for my own preferences I am seeking a bit more complexity.
    As with several others in this line, it is yet another excellent value fragrance from Molinard to buy and have fun with, as and when you fancy mixing simple floral elements to find a balance for you that suits your mood.

    This is a lovely violet. It smells just like violet mints by chowards. Super cute. Definitely has a “candylike” quality, but is by no means overly sweet. It is soft and inoffensive. Glad I took a chance on this. It’s going to be perfect for spring wear. It is a very simplistic beauty. Soft, a bit powdery, a bit sugary, a little musk. Definitely violet. This is by far the most delightful floral I have ever owned. It has fairly soft sillage, but it does last. Very pleased.

    Violet candy. Nothing more. Nothing less.
    My husband says it smells like window cleaning spray.
    The sillage and longevity is non existent.
    Disappointed. Again.

    I adore this newfound delight!
    This is a fairly straightforward violet scent although not quite a soliflore, although there is not a specific other floral note I can detect – perhaps a hint of rose as this does remind me of L’Occitanes Delice Des Fleurs Rose et Violette to some degree.
    This is fairly linear to me, from first spray to final drydown it does not change overly much, but that it fine because this scent is BEAUTIFUL! This is probably my favourite straight violet scent and is perfect for day to day wear. Feminine, sweet (though not in a candy type of way, though perhaps, on warmer days a hint of caramel?), floral, elegant, fresh and uplifting. This makes me smile and feel happy, it brings me clarity, I really do love it. Although I cannot really smell it after the first couple of hours it is there as people have complimented me on it several hours later even though it is no longer detectable on me. I love this as a departure from some of the more heady, heavy smells I love and whenever I get it out I cannot resist a quick spray on the bedlinen. I have found that it layers beautifully with orange shower gels and lotions, and also with patchouli based shower gels, to bring out different nuances of the fragrance. I also like to use a faint spray of this to enhance the violet in other perfumes such as DSquared2 She Wood Velvet Forest Wood, and even as a refresher for L’Heure Bleue several hours in as a cheap enlivener if I want to perk thinks up a bit or lighten the mood. I may even try layering this with Mitsouko.
    I love this stuff and am so glad I came across it, you can get it for a good price online for a 100ml bottle.
    I really don’t know what else to say, I am in love with this right now! I have a full bottle and can definitely see me repeat ordering this one, I cannot imagine being without it now I have found it.

    Sweet violet scent, musky dry down. Fairly simple composition, the other flowers hold up the violet but they don’t overwhelm it. It’s a bit too sweet to be entirely natural smelling violet but it is beautiful if you like this note sweeter. A simple scent with a few distinctive notes but it succeeds at what it sets out to do, capturing the violet.

    The nineteenth-century-inspired violet soliflores range across a spectrum from quite sugary to green and not very sweet at all. Molinard’s entry, VIOLETTE, lies toward the sugary end of the spectrum, particularly in the opening minutes, which always take me back a bit, so similar is the scent to that of violet candy. As the composition dries down, some of the sugar evaporates away, leaving a very thin, glistening patina of sugar, but I do not find it overly sweet.
    To be honest, I do not detect much else here beyond the violet, what seems to be vanilla (though it’s not listed as a note–perhaps I am misidentifying heliotrope?), and of course the sugar. Naturally this composition appeals to me since I love violets in nearly every combination with anything, although I must say that I draw the line at plastic (I’m talking to you, Guerlain INSOLENCE).
    VIOLETTE is simple, but what else could one expect from a violet soliflore? I like it, and would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes either Caron AIMEZ-MOI or Laurence Dumont VANILLE VIOLETTE, both of which are really quite sweet to my nose–and in fact sweeter than the Molinard. Everyone else needs to try this before they buy, because it may well exceed your tolerance for sugar in perfume.
    If you like Bosari VIOLETTA DI PARMA and Berdoues VIOLETTES DE TOULOUSE, L’Artisan Parfumeur VERTE VIOLETTE, and Histoires de Parfums BLANC VIOLETTE, you may or may not like this sugar-encrusted version of the same theme. The quality of the violets seems comparable to me, so I’d call this yet another excellent value from Molinard.

    Les Fleurs Violette is a gentle violet fragrance based on musk. Upon first spray, my nose picks (in the order of dominance) fresh violets, musk, and heliotrope. Dominant musk notes always bomb on my skin, and perhaps that’s why the first 15 mins upon spraying isn’t my favorite part of this perfume.
    However, the heart reveals only the powdery violet note and the musk really serves as the agent on which this lovely but airy note can effervesce on my skin. As the hours pass, the dry down becomes sweeter, almost a candy like note of violet. However, it isn’t cloying or bothersome. This is truly my favorite phase of the perfume.
    I’ve been able to score a 3.4 oz bottle for a very reasonable price. And as a Violet Lover, I shall be keeping this inexpensive little gem in my collection as my go-to violet perfume.
    Projection: Not even a foot. Stays close. But it’s a lovely little cloud of violet.
    Longevity: Considering that my skin eats up perfume way too much, not bad for a violet one. After 4 hours, I needed to re-spray. But it IS relatively inexpensive, so this is not an issue for me.
    Violet Lovers: I don’t think you can go wrong with this as a blind buy if all of this sounds good to you.

    This smells exactly like the traditional violet flavored sweets we have here in France !

    I agree with Bighouse – too sweet. I miss in the perfume the true violette fragrance. The very first impression was the one of caramel…

    No one has reviewed this one yet? In my search for “The Perfect Violet” fragrance, this is one of several I have purchased. It is a soft violet, I do not detect the rose in here—the violet stands alone, and is very powdery, but not sweet. Not as intense a violet as I am searching for, but quite lovely for spring and summer days. Very good price and availability are a big plus!
