What is the scent of a violet?
Violet flowers have a delicate, floral, slightly fresh, powdery, slightly mineral and green scent. It can also be slightly reminiscent of the scent of iris. Very often, perfumes use synthetic chemicals called ioions, which were found after separating the aromatic substances contained in violet flowers. The use of these substances requires some experience, because in excess they can cause a temporary weakening of the sense of smell.
