Sweet Violet Enfleurage

A rare and luxurious aromatic experience – our Sweet Violet pommade is made using the ancient, labor intensive, and all but vanished scent extraction process of enfleurage. Using this method, fresh, organic violet flowers are placed onto glass chassis into an organic fat whipped with orris root, a natural fixative with a marvelously fresh and nectarous aroma of its own. The blossoms are changed every day for more than 30 days and at the end of the process the fat molecules are infused with the bountiful, powdery, fruited scent from the exhaling flowers. Most violet products in today’s market make use of the violet leaf but this incredible pommade is made using only the flower, and is created in small craft batches by the ounce instead of by the pound because of the tiny size and delicate nature of the petals.



An enormously popular flower with the Victorians, the violet was thought to represent fidelity and, according to the age’s secret language of flowers, wearing purple violets was thought to convey that one’s thoughts were preoccupied by love. At the time, the scent of the flower was also thought to assuage sadness and depression and its reputation as a calming and stress relieving aroma has persisted. Use Sweet Violet Enfleurage on pulse points as a subtly provocative scent or rub lightly into the temples during episodes of stress and headache.



Part of the plastic-free Slow Beauty Collection, Sweet Violet Enfleurage comes in a hand blown glass pot with a lid, and includes a delicate glass spoon for application.
