Why do lipsticks always have more or less the same scent? In France, until the Revolution, people of the court would spritz their wigs with a blend of crushed iris roots and rice powder. This iris-y sillage remained.
Violet made its appearance later, at the end of the 19th century, in the first solid sticks, but became the norm in the 1920s when lipsticks were aromatised with a violet candy flavour, which was fashionable at the time. And the harmonies of iris, violet and raspberries have the advantage of being rather lovely when you run your tongue over your lips
