Olfactive Studio - Violet Shot – Extrait de Parfum

Olfactive Studio VIOLET SHOT Extrait de Parfum

The sensual portrait of a violet at night

VIOLET SHOT is not a fragrance for the obvious. It appeals to Your intuition – to that inner lens that captures light in darkness, embraces contrasts, and finds beauty in the unexpected. This composition from the Sepia Collection by Olfactive Studio unfolds like a mysterious photographic negative: intense, structured, and deeply atmospheric. Here, violet is not a shy floral whisper – it is a bold olfactory statement, faceted, expressive, and elegantly untamed.

From the very first breath, the composition commands attention. Fresh-cut grass awakens Your senses, paired with the sparkling clarity of mandarin and a touch of Damask rose that sets the tone with subtle grace. Then the violet leaf takes the spotlight. Not sweet, not shy – but textured and dimensional, cloaked in Safraleine, which lends the fragrance a leathery, spicy warmth. It is a violet with attitude – complex, multi-layered, and defiantly sensual.

As the scent settles, it reveals its warm and indulgent soul. Madagascan vanilla beans offer soft sweetness, gently entwined with the golden resinous glow of labdanum. At the base, Patchouli from Indonesia anchors the fragrance with its earthy strength, extending its presence and depth long into the night. This is a composition that doesn't shout – it resonates. It stays with You, not as a memory, but as a mood.

Dominique Ropion – precision meets intuition

Behind this evocative creation stands none other than Dominique Ropion, one of the most revered perfumers of our time. His path to perfumery was serendipitous – when another student withdrew from perfumery school, the place was offered to Ropion. Before accepting, he met with masters like Jean Amic, Jean-Louis Sieuzac, and Pierre Bourdon. Soon after, he moved to Grasse to begin his formal training, laying the foundation for what would become a legendary career.

Ropion is known for his ability to balance meticulous structure with creative instinct. His fragrances are composed like music – with harmony, contrast, and impeccable clarity. With the trilogy of Iris Shot, Violet Shot, and Rose Shot, he created an olfactory triptych for Olfactive Studio – each scent a unique lens, capturing the soul of a flower with emotional depth and artistic boldness.
