Crafted as a contemporary expression of violet, this Eau de Parfum places the delicate powdery nuance of the floral at the heart of its identity, supported by aldehydic clarity and rose’s soft contouring. The fragrance creates a refined profile that sits between classical florals and modern restraint.
Top facets introduce an airy blend of violet, rose, and aldehydes that register with a gentle luminosity before giving way to a warmer center. As the middle unfolds, the composition picks up depth and spice through saffron, cumin, and incense, adding textured complexity to the floral signature.
The base brings a grounding finish of cedarwood, amber, and patchouli, lending an understated woodiness and warmth to the overall structure. This foundation supports sustained presence and a softly lingering trail, rounding out the olfactory journey from crisp to rich.
Reflecting Le Labo’s philosophy of thoughtful craftsmanship within its New York artisanal roots and under the oversight of its parent Estée Lauder Companies, Violette 30 embodies subtlety and layered richness without overwhelming intensity.
Wearers can expect a balanced evolution that stays close to the skin yet projects a distinct scent identity, suitable for a variety of settings where a floral-woodsy perfume conveys assurance and refinement.

We believe that...
There are too many perfume bottles in the world, but not enough fragrances with soul.
The soul of a fragrance is born from the thoughts of its creator and is nurtured by the efforts of the perfumer, who carefully mixes the ingredients.
Fine perfumes should make a stunning impression, combining the effect of novelty with a sense of something familiar.
Fine perfumes should be daring.
It is much more humane to test cosmetics on New Yorkers than on animals.
Celebrities should pay full price for products.
The future of luxury (including perfumes) is in craftsmanship.
The main secret of success is a careful attitude to our work: carefully selected varieties of roses, hand-made candles, unique perfume compositions and respectful treatment of clients.
Our motto is the words of the Persian poet Hafez: "Whatever you do, do it well!"
New York made us who we are - with a touch of wabi-sabi and a couple of quotes from Henry Thoreau.
From time to time, we (and you) should forget about modern gadgets and just enjoy the scent of roses.
Youth is just a period in life, but the heart can remain young until the very end.
And we also believe that verbose explanations kill art. So forget about all this!
