April Violets is a Yardley floral first released in 1913, which makes it one of the older fragrances still on sale. Everyone who describes it calls it floral, and about a third also find it gourmand or musky, pointing to a gentle sweetness under the flowers.
It opens on violet, a soft, powdery, slightly sweet note that gives the fragrance its name and its character. The heart adds lily of the valley for a fresh, dewy lift, pelargonium for a green, slightly rosy edge, and jasmine for a touch of warmth. In the base, vanilla brings a light creamy sweetness and musk settles the whole into a soft, clean finish.
April Violets is positioned for women. Its powdery, old-fashioned violet character suits daytime wear and spring in particular, and it is likely to appeal to anyone who enjoys classic soliflore-style perfumes and a gentle presence rather than a bold trail.
