Beautiful, and the Emeralds selections ... divine.

Yes, her perfume was unmistakable.

Thank you for this very lovely tribute to such a beautiful woman and dancer. Many ballets that Violette danced are my favorites because of what she brought to them.

I add my thanks too for this lovely memory brought back to life. I am grateful I saw her in the debut of Emeralds within Jewels and in Sonatine and so many others. So different and her own unique self, so beguiling.
