Mykonos x Violenzia Violette is a rose-fruity eau de parfum of exotic berries, pink pepper and caramel over osmanthus and Bulgarian rose, with patchouli, amber and wood in the base. Mykonos launched it together with Violenzia Jeanette, whose name is on the box, and describes it as a charismatic blend of airy rose, exotic berries and sensual musk. It is one of our rose perfumes.
How Mykonos Violette develops on skin
The opening is fruity and lively: exotic berries with a punch of pink pepper and a touch of caramel. In the heart, osmanthus and Bulgarian rose take over, an airy, joyful rose that the brand calls “the edgy kind”, neither timid nor delicate. The dry-down of patchouli, amber and wood adds depth and a creamy sweetness, with a hint of mystery. Sweet yet edgy, charming yet mysterious, in the brand's words.
Longevity, sillage and projection
Mykonos has not published longevity, sillage or projection ratings for Violette, so we don't quote any. We tag its intensity as moderate: airy in the heart, with enough patchouli and amber to give it depth. How long it lasts on you depends on your skin and the climate.
When to wear Violette, and who it suits
We tag Violette for spring, summer and autumn, and for daily wear, evenings and special occasions: in the brand's words, it draws all the attention, effortlessly. With its story of a tough yet charming butterfly and its airy rose, it sits in our women's range. In our range, it sits closest to Sparkling Rosé, Xoxo Rosy and Stilettos. Comparing roses?
