by The Different Company
I Miss Violet by The Different Company is a delicate, powdery floral leather scent centered around violet, with a soft, effervescent opening that evokes dewy greenery and light honeyed sweetness. It unfolds with a subtle blend of violet leaf, iris, and mimosa, leading into a dry down of suede-like leather, vanilla, and musk that feels both natural and quietly persistent. While not strong in projection or longevity—most users report it lasting around 4–6 hours, with some noting it vanishes quickly in cold weather—the scent is perceived as refined, intimate, and quietly captivating with a balance of sweetness and dryness. It carries a light, airy character with an undercurrent of mossy wood and ozone, creating a feeling of nostalgic romanticism, often described as subtly evocative of vintage perfume or a fleeting moment of elegance. The fragrance works best in warmer weather and on skin with moderate skin chemistry, where its complexity unfolds more fully.
