A new limited edition, V Absolu, features in Valentino’s favorite color, red. The scent is warm leaving a comfortable trail. Slightly fresh in the beginning it revolves into a rich composition that perfectly blends the notes of citruses and sweet flowers. Orange blossom sings at perfume’s heart together with the notes of frangipani and heliotrope. The base is composed of warm woods and comforting vanilla; cedarwood, sandalwood, amber, musk, Burbon vanilla. It was created in 2005.

For my nose, V Absolu is one of the most intoxicating fragrances in my wardrobe. It has several of my most desired scents, the fig, orange blossom, rose, heliotrope, balsam, sandalwood, incense, cedar and smoldering amber. Its bouquet is somewhat heavy, so I recommend a light hand when wearing to the office. If going out for the evening or to an outdoors event then layer on the perfume with the bath gel and lotion. For me, this lasts all day and I get many compliments from men and women alike. It truly is a perfectly luscious perfume.

i don t like it at all.the opening was okay but after that remains a musky woody stuff which is unpleasant to my nose but luckly it dissapeared quickly so it spared me of washing it off.

V absolu starts with strong citrus,orange scents.I almost thought it's a kind of summer fragrance,but wait...
as the first notes disappear it becomes more creamy,with a very nice floral combination.it's incredible.it's not sweet,sour,nor bitter.it's just lovely.
the dry down is more and more creamy.at this stage it's like Escada Magnestism or Black XS.the vanilla scent is very clear and the amber makes it warm.
I think the advantage of having a perfume like this is the ability to wear it in every season and every occasion.
I like it much more than original V,though still V ete is my favorite one.

I smelled this in a magazine and I REALLY liked it! I can't remember what it smelled like, though. I think it was 2 years ago, and I don't ever see it in stores

For a Floral Woody Musk scent with fig notes which I adore and "sweet" character overall which I also greatly appreciate, this fragrance is a mess on me. It must be my chemistry but this was awful, I was so disappointed especially after having had such high hopes for it. Somehow it turned on me, and smelled the way aldehydes tend to smell on me - stale, offensive and well just not right. I really don't understand what it is about the aldehydes that makes them so fetid and unbearable on my skin.

This and the original are so similar. The only difference maybe is that this ones a bit sweeter and not as strong as the first one. Absolu is softer and a little more fruitier not to woody and I love it.

I love Absolu - it's a great modern oriental, with the added bonus of not being very well known. Lasting power could be a bit better, but that's just nitpicking. Wear the original during the day, and Absolu in the evening. Wonderful.

V absolu smells great, just like the original Valentino V. Absolu is just a little bit softer since it has vanilla in the base; it is very modern, feminine and complex at the begining but, sadly, it fades away quickly.

Great perfume! Very warm, but not too woody or anything. Soft vanilla notes. Very much like Valentino V.
