Princia Violet / Veolay, introduced to the world in 1908, is officially considered a feminine fragrance.
Country of origin — France, and that already says something about the quality. Princia Violet / Veolay unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Princia unfolds as a living composition, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The signature of Violet / Veolay comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
The stylistic positioning is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
Even without a fully detailed top section the composition still reads clear and composed, and the opening tone remains controlled and clear.
The inner phases are felt as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
Its family/group profile is still recognizable through stage transitions.
Overall Princia holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best judged in wear.
