Description

Skymning was created as a manifestation of the sunset sky and its emotional effect on our lives. During a vast part of the year most parts of Sweden lacks sunlight due to grey cloudy skies. Intense colourful skies can therefore cause strong mixed emotions of awe and envy, pleasure and sadness. If this heartfelt phenomenon would be a fragrance, this would be it. It has notes of iris and violet, violet candy and musk. Skymning is Swedish for dusk.” – a note from the brand.

Skymning was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Henrik Lestréus.

    Smells like violets and sugar. Like Imaginary Authors’ Violet Disguise except better IMO. If you miss Violet Disguise, which has been discontinued, you can easily replace it with this. I wouldn’t buy a bottle because it isn’t my thing, but it’s pleasant.
    This also has the ‘peanut brittle’ note that I detect in Hermès Eau de Citron Noir. Not sure if it is the sugar notes or some combination between the sugar and the violets.

    Skymning is without a doubt my favourite out of their three new fragrances (even though I love En and Sadel as well) and I am so happy that I decided to buy a bottle of it!
    Immediately when I read that it contains iris and violet candy I knew that I had to have a bottle, so I ordered one without even thinking about it.
    When I spray it on I am met by a quite powdery iris that feels luxurious, beautiful and cold. The violet is there in the background, but here in the beginning it’s definitely the iris that rules, like a tough ice queen from a fairytale or Disney movie. I love this type of cold, powdery iris scent!
    After a while there is a scent of violet candy sneeking in to the fragrance and it really is as realistic as I hoped it would be when I read that it is one of the notes in this fragrance. The iris is still cold, powdery and tough while the violet candy is sweet, kind and nice. So it feels like the evil ice queen now has met the good princess. There is also a veil of musk and a darker violet that’s sweeping over the fragrance and contributes with some mystery.
    The first time I tried this fragrance I thought that it reminded a bit of Misia from Chanel, but when I compared them side by side I didn’t think so… so I washed Misia off again and let Skymning get all the focus.
    This is a fragrance that stays all day on the skin… and even to the next day. The last time I wore it I sprayed it on my arm and when I was going out I didn’t want it to rub off on my wool coat so I put on a sweater underneath the coat. But it still smelled like violet candy for a week after that! This fragrance has a really fantastic longevity and sillage!

    I’d like to first thank Svensk Parfym for the opportunity to test their first six fragrances.
    Among the first six Svensk Parfym offerings, Skymning is an instant hit for me, as violet and iris are among my favourite notes, and Skymning illustrates this violet note in such a vivid way that it strongly reminds me of the French violet candy – Violette de Toulouse.
    Speaking of violet candy, among those often recommended as violet-candy-themed fragrances, one can usually find suggestions such as Guerlain Insolence, Van Cleef & Arpels Féerie, etc. They’re indeed lovely, full of the cheerfulness and innocence of sweet berries along with the violet like how the candy tastes. However, what they lack, according to my personal preference, is the surprising herbal, minty, even a bit earthy, anise-like spicy and medicinal taste in the violet candy. I found it in Annick Goutal La Violette with an anise undertone, and now I find it again in Skymning, but skewing more herbal with even a sort of nose-cleansing minty/menthol vibe to evoke the cool breeze under the violet sky at dusk.
    I also appreciate the smooth, graceful transition from herbal, minty violet candy, to the clean fluffy white musk and velvety iris base very much. As if the clean white musk arrives to give a long, affectionate hug to the violet, and leaves it enough time to exit with grace, while the creamy, softly carrot-y and violet-tinged iris is like the haunting fragrance of violet lingering on the shoulder of the steamy white musk, long after violet’s depart.
    Skymning remains this ethereal, elegant velvety iris and fluffy white musk for the rest of its development. The iris never turns starchy, the white musk remains fluffy instead of tripping into laundry detergent, and the whole maintains a charming radiance instead of turning opaque and muddled. All in all, it’s a very comfortable skin scent with panache.
    Skymning projects moderately during its 2-hour violet phase, then stays close to skin for another 6 hours.
    The evolution of Skymning is arguably relatively linear, like a violet colour gradually gets awashed into white. But the smooth transition, the carefully modulated details to render the accord life-like, all assures a end-result of refinement and gracefulness. I would definitely recommend it to violet fans, especially if you enjoy the herbal nuance of violet or if you prefer a more naturalisitic and diaphanous style.
