Floral · 58 fragrances

violet is a floral accord, recorded in 58 fragrances in the Codex. Accords carry a weight rather than a simple yes/no flag: a high weight means the accord dominates how the fragrance reads, while a low weight means it appears as a supporting texture. Fragrances where it dominates sit mostly in the floral family.
