Oscar Violet

Oscar de la Renta - Violet turns out to be Hugo boss deep Red's twinsister. They are lot alike. Violet is just a little bit softer and maybe a little bit closer to skin than Deep Red(i find Deep Red to be loud and bold). Violet are warm, sexy, elegant and very woman'ish. Love it! Oscar de la Renta - Violet liknar Hugo Boss Deep Red. Jag upplever dem som helt lika. Violet är aningens mjukare och något mera hudnära än Deep Red, som i mitt tycke är en väldigt högljudd och kvalmig doft. Violet är en varm, sexig, elegant och superkvinnlig doft. Älskar den!

Another blind purchase for me. What a delight for my nose after the initial spray (citrusy) dried down to a soft, warm, inviting concoction of lovliness. It seems to fade rather too soon for my liking. As I love heavier perfumes I sprayed 2 bursts of Mauboussin and then liberally (OdelaR Violets). Wow, now it stays and has blended exceptionally well to suit my taste. I will be buying this again, as I do not want to run out of it. I received compliments at work the other day whilst wearing this blend, this put a big smile on my face. x

I love loooove this perfume and I can't find it anywhere! It's so unique and lovely for me, I have been looking this for years. It's yummy, sweet but fresh... Its just perfect.

Good for all year imo. It’s sophisticated but not old lady like. I’m 23 and I absolutely love this one. Vanilla/sweet but fresh

I love violets, so I was instantly intrigued by this perfume. Well, I tried hard to look for violets in Oscar Violet but I just could not locate them. Ironic, isn’t it? What I found instead is a delicious vanilla gourmand scent. So if you are looking for violets (sweet, natural or green), this would not be my choice but if you have a craving for chocolate and vanilla desert then this lovely perfume will seduce you with its simple but delicious notes. After brief citrus opening, I mostly get the chocolate as the scent develops. Lovely, delicious chocolate mixed with a floral mist. There is a floral layer in this perfume but it is hard to pick individual flowers. They are mixed with chocolate and vanilla and very sweet. The dry down is vanilla - simple, straightforward gourmand vanilla with a bit of sandalwood and musk. How Oscar Violet is different from many other gourmand scents out there? It is not. But it is a pleasant scent to wear as I do not find the sillage to be overpowering. I have to make a comment on the bottle though. It is shaped like a whimsical, abstract flower and I love it. Overall score for the scent is 7/10.
