Crown of Violets

I get the purple shampoo, lotion effect.

On initial application I was hit with a stunning photorealistic green wet/dewy, purple flower garden. However, minutes after, it sadly takes a more traditional feminine purple floral path a la perfumes like Tapis Volante by Liquid Imaginaires, Tears by Regime De Fleurs and Palatine from Parfumes de Marley. Win for someone who has any of those on their wishlist as this is a much cheaper option, however that orris/lavender/iris combo doesn't do anything for me. I love the scent of a violet but this isn't Violet at all. I can see any polite society woman in her 30's - 40's wearing this. It is office safe and a 'normie' crowd pleaser which is not what I look for in brands like Alkemia. It is shame because I would have loved a wet, green violet scent in a little travel roller instead of this mature generic purple and white (i swear i can smell some jasmine in this too in the dry down) floral perfume but it would be a good stocking stuffer for older sisters, aunties and mums who like florals, especially if they like purple florals.
