Sketch
Regular price $ 185.00A spectacular, compelling patchouli-vanilla pairing with a hint of tuberose and rose, sprinkled with nutmeg and pink pepper.
From Maison Violet
The richness of Sketch is matched only by the elegance of its wake, like the sketch of a pencil stroke on a gold leaf. Deep, sensual and reassuring, with a dash of mysteriousness. Sketch plays with the codes and reinterprets the woody-ambery olfactory family. With a rich and textured chypre-patchouli accord artfully blended with evanescent nutmeg and lush tuberose, Sketch is a powerful and modern ambery patchouli-vanilla. This already cult antinomy is then caressed by zesty notes of bergamot and spicy pepper. Sketch is an olfactory jewel, a singular adornment, a radiant necklace for the soul, draped in a musky cocoon. A historically contemporary fragrance, the definition of modernity and heritage.
Originally labeled Ambre Royal in 1900, Sketch is an inspiration of the perfume of 1924. Drawing inpsiration from the Honesty plant, its bottle was shaped with the characteristics of this lunar plant of pearly reflections.

And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.

Another frag from Violet that has my heart soaring! Maison Violet is truly helping me embrace floral scents.
Sketch is a renewed and refreshed incarnation of a famous perfume that starts with an "S" from the 1920's. After trying a sample I knew this needed to join my collection to wear on its own or to layer with the vintage juice it resembles. The full size bottle is ginormous and will last a lifetime. I recommend the Violet house as a better value alternative for fans like me of that other famous French company starting with G.
The best scents. Vanille animalic
And sweet all in One.
Made getting my overseas fragrance easier and faster through domestic shipping. Really nice and appreciate the free samples!
