CB I Hate Perfume Violet Empire, Wild Pansy & CB Musk: new fragrances

Posted by Robin on 23 September 2006 4 Comments

CB I Hate Perfume Violet Empire fragranceCB I Hate Perfume has a newly redesigned website and online store, and has added several new fragrances:

Violet Empire is "blended from CB Violet Empress, Elemi, Violet Leaf Absolute, Rosewood, Mahogany, and Russian Leather. Violet EMPIRE is an unusual yet very elegant perfume. The violet scent perpetually peeps out from behind a shining green veil."

Wild Pansy "is actually the smell of wild violets growing in the forest very crisp grassy & casual."

CB Musk "is a deep scent with a rich animal/erotic presence. It seems to fade into the skin causing the natural scent to glow. CBMUSK is beautiful on its own or worn as a base with other scents."

Also check out the expanded list of individual accords now available for online ordering. A few examples: Celo Tape, Beautiful Laundrette, My Birthday Cake and Bonfire.

    Two violet fragrances! and I wonder if the CB musk might be the one I need to layer under Terre d'Hermes…

    Hi R! After visiting CB's gallery this summer and sniffing all the accords, I fell in love with Violet EMPIRE and have been wearing it almost daily. It's very herby on my skin – sometimes minty, sometimes peppery – but the violet always shines through every now and then. A fragrance as unique as CB himself, and one of my all-time favorites.

    K, another one that I'm hoping to try this week. Still madly in love with Memory of Kindness though…
