Description
Velvet Violet by Dries Van Noten is an Oriental fragrance designed for both women and men, launched in 2026 and crafted by perfumer Gaël Montero. This composition opens with pink pepper, violet leaf, and clary sage, creating a luminous, peppery introduction. The heart unfolds with toasted sesame absolute and roasted barley, adding warmth and a distinctive gourmand character. The base settles into grilled tonka beans, benzoin resinoid, and vetiver essence, delivering a creamy, earthy finish with subtle spice. A modern take on the Oriental category, Velvet Violet balances floral delicacy with rich, sensual undertones.
