(100 ml perfume)
There is a place where my thoughts find refuge, where I withdraw from the world, where I read my poems aloud as the year’s first violets sprout from the still-frosty ground in March. This place is the garden of my soul. In *Viole Nere*, I explore themes of absence and the darkness in which I hide my essence and step outside my own spirit—a place where the word becomes a boulder to which I tether my mind, and where poetry transforms into an invocation. The perfume becomes a marvel: black upon black. I chose to tell a new story—one that carries the scent of a black violet. *Viole Nere* was born of a desire to share the story of my love for the garden as both a physical and spiritual space—a mirror of my consciousness. I achieved this by interpreting the iconic violet: a flower that is at once austere and delicate, yet possesses a strong character. My violet speaks of March mornings when the earth is still damp and cold—wet from late winter—and the first light of spring illuminates the meadow. Violets grow and release their fragrance—a ritual that repeats year after year.
