my SS - best Angelica and Iris
Violet Cycle 001 perfume takes me to the land that lives in my soul. When I feel them, I feel like I'm standing above the cliffs in Ireland or Norway. Somewhere far up, where the rocks are mineral and the plants around are wild and sharpy. There is a lot of rawness and wildness in all this. I love wearing them because they have something woody, mineral and green in them. The note of Angelica is noticeable, but also iris in a noble version and long musk. I'm glad that this perfume is in my collection, I can safely call it my SS for several years.
The company issued them in an edition of 1,000 pieces and now you can buy a refill, a very nice option for people who value ecological solutions.

This is quite similar to Glossier You (at least the old version). I think the angelica adds a rotten aspect to the scent - dry, green, moldy

cool and incredibly dry, like dust in an empty office
whispers of incense entwine with the bitter angelica
soft, but not weak

Reminds me of the smell of paper and books, bone dry, without unnecessary embellishment or sweetness, subtly powdery. Top

Dry dust from yellowed paper in an abandoned library. Cool, softly powdery, distant. In the dry down, musky soft + a hint of incense.

The paper-thin petals of a dusty iris rustle softly,
preserved in musk cream.
A modern, synthetic scent.

Smoothly creamy, slightly smoky, straightforward, and quite youthful for this type of fragrance. Reminds me a bit of 60s architecture. Great!

Beautiful iris resting on angelica with a molecular finish. Unfortunately very subtle. Or I'm suffering from Ambroxan again.
