  According to ancient Greek mythology, Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, was reluctant to part when her lover was about to travel far away, and her sparkling teardrops fell onto the soil. In the spring of the following year, the place where Venus's teardrops fell unexpectedly sprouted and grew branches, and bloomed with beautiful, fragrant flowers one after another; these are the violets.

The violet is native to southern Europe, and is extremely popular and deeply loved in European and American countries. Its flowers have a faint delicate fragrance, and the perfume made from them by Europeans is highly favored by women.
