Ajmal Accord Violet: Niche Without the Pretension

Built on Violet, Green, Floral, Musky, this EDP is sophisticated without being alienating, distinctive without being difficult. For any buyer where quality and uniqueness command a genuine premium, Accord Violet positions itself as an intelligent investment.

A sophisticated and fresh take on violet, focusing on both the green leaf and powdery flower, creating an elegant and refined aura that is both calming and invigorating.

Accord Violet Notes Breakdown

Accord Violet opens with Violet Leaf, Green Notes and Citrus — the first impression as it hits the skin. Once that burns off, usually inside the first half hour, the heart turns to Violet Flower, Orris and Rose. What lingers on skin and clothing hours later is the base: Musk, Amber and Cedarwood.

Strip it back to the bones and the profile reads Violet, Green, Floral, Musky — the kind of profile that rewards a second and third wearing.
