Good Things: Sweet Violet {Part I}

IMG_6341

Violet is one of the most enchanting fragrances – a striking blend of powdery and sweet floral notes. It is slightly fruity, quite light and very uplifting. Legend has it, Flora the goddess of flowers created the violet from the body of a butterfly. The scent of a violet, will transport you to a cool and shady day in Wales – where violets are known to grow along the hedges. Violet not only smells incredible, but has incredible and distinct sweet floral taste. Laduree has created candied violets, in addition to a violet macaron. And, to pair your candied violets with and French macaron, Kusmi has developed an incredible Chinese black tea infused with violet petals.

I always say, the greatest way to transform any space is with fragrance. One of my favorite Diptyque candles for spring is Violette - powdery, floral and absolutely enchanting.
