Nuée Bleue (meaning ‘blue cloud’) by Violet is a vintage iris perfume with a contemporary feel. It is feminine and elegant, with a soft woody and musky sillage.
Nuée Bleue was the last fragrance marketed by the eponymous perfume company in the mid-1950s, making it the ultimate witness of an era and a significant part of history. For Violet, Nuée Bleue has several meanings. It represented both a moment of fullness and great tension, an in-between state that perfectly embodied the “eau fraiche” genre. It also represents a moment where everything was both light and heavy, soaked and dry.

Soft Floral
Soft floral fragrances are delicate and elegant with a clean vibe to them. Typical is the use of aldehydes that give the floral accords this soft, clean and powdery character. Take Chanel N°5 as iconic example. The soft floral fragrance family is generally considered as cosmetic, classic and feminine.
