About this deal

The warm, exotic qualities of an oriental scent mix with the more woody, herbaceous and masculine tones of a fougère to create a deep, complex blend sure to awaken your senses. i like strong vetiver notes, and the day i tried this, i found out i love black pepper notes even more.

Homme Absolute is not a generic fragrance it is very much out there in its own niche genre of sensual, boozy, enigmatic, deep dark fragrances. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. But unlike Viking it is gently warm due to the subtle creamy vanilla tonka bean note rather than cool and would probably work best in dull spring and autumn rather than either cold or hot weather.

I get a peppery, kinda tobaccoey vibe, but a beautiful, beautiful opening, kinda unique as well, at least to my nose. After first spray, without thinking about it, the first thing that popped in my head was Prada Luna Rossa EXTREME. If you do not update your preferences, we will assume that you are happy to receive amazing offers and news. Opening with spicy Black Pepper, the energetic fragrance is enhanced by exotic Ylang-Ylang and a powerful blend of aromatic Vetiver, precious Incense and rich Tonka Bean.

Absolute" is now the new niche genre watchword in fragrances meaning watch out, I'm a beast, powerful, strong, built to last, stand the test of time and permeate every nasal passage with pleasure and leisure! Diddleydaddy6901234, FYI, Ylang-Ylang note is a rich, floral, sweet note with a nuance of banana, woody, dirty, sour nuances. Absolute mixes floral notes, usually found in women's perfume, with typical masculine notes for its own unique aroma.Being more powerful than standard (very powerful in its own right) Eau De Parfum and blowing away Eau De Toilette, Eau De Cologne and all and any Aftershaves of course.

Yes, it’s light, quite intimate and smells like an autumn / winter player but, I tried this on a holiday to warmer climes in the far East and it totally worked! It opens with notes of black pepper, has a floral heart with notes of ylang-ylang and finishes with a woody base of vetiver, tonka bean and incense. I'm not sure about silage and how long each application lasts, still only applied it twice, but it feels average in that regard. To me, it renders aromas of pepper, tobacco, leather, ginger, rum and incense that have all been exquisitely blended together to form a masterpiece, indeed this has to be a new masterpiece from the House of Joop! The Chypre fragrance family is characterised by a fine fragrance that particularly confident women appreciate.Incense sweetened with tonka bean seasoned with pepper, this is the simplest way of describing this composition. So, all I can say is, if you’ve been let down by its performance at all, try it in hotter weather, especially if you do actually enjoy how it smells. I found the opening to be a dry, spicy resinous feel with a nearly rubbery texture, getting sweeter hints and more saturated by a ‘sexy’ Tonka accord. Peoples skin PH levels differ) Compliments are more curiosity based demanding to know "Mmm nice, whats that your wearing?

Very dark and mysterious, not for everyone, smells like a roughly done or an incomplete niche fragrance. I must say that I am mystified by all the comments here saying that Joop Homme Absolute is very short lasting. And it's grown steadily to become a scent I reach for on a regular basis all year round, whatever the weather. Getting my nose on Amouage Boundless and this Joop (to my sniff) feels like it shares semblance to Amouage B minus the smokiness from Amouage. But then again, I've complained about barely getting two hours out of Eau Sauvage, where others say they get 24 hours out of it.

I could barely detect it even after initially spraying it and it was gone within an hour, leaving just a tiny hint on the skin that there was something sprayed there. My only negative point would be the inspiration in another popular fragrance according to my nose but to be very sincere, who does not do it nowadays? Quite disappointed to be honest,I will use it after a bath in the evening as it’ll be gone by the time I go to bed. Plenty more "Absolute" woody-leathery-boozy fragrances out there that really do hit the mark and stay on your skin until you have to wash them off.
