Darker than the familiar powdery violet, a black violet note pushes the ionones toward their woody, fruity side and shades them with earthy violet leaf and plummy dark fruit. The darkest garden violas are a purple so deep it reads as black, and the note settles lower in a composition than the classic violet, lingering into the drydown.
