Luxurious Leather!
The scent is a "more concentrated" version of one of the best perfumes of the last decade.
The best combination of leather with Jasmine Sambac Absolute and pink pepper.
All notes are enhanced by an additional concentration of Ambroxan, yet never come across as synthetic. The perfume is suitable for winter and its longevity and sillage are exorbitant. With the "Absolue" version, Michel Almairac once again demonstrates how high-quality raw materials can blend with synthetic notes to create a great fragrance. Mastery is a rare thing in perfumery today, and unfortunately, this jewel has also disappeared from production.

Deer Brown Cuddle Sofa
Today I finally stepped out the door again - and ended up in my regular perfumery.
And my regular saleswoman immediately offered me L'absolu.
Another flanker from Bottega?
Do I need it?
The answer is - yes.

Here, the leather theme is skillfully realized in a floral, softly sweet combination.

I envision the inviting deer brown leather sofa in my parents' house, into which one sinks with a contented sigh.

One is tempted to put their feet up and take a nap there.

On the wooden table, there is a bouquet of jasmine in a vase - blending beautifully with the muted leather tone.

Valuable elegance with a touch of coziness.

You can also make yourself comfortable with this fragrance.

Calm and tranquility spread with a hint of luxury.

A disturbing note at the start (unfortunately) ...
then a leathery-floral charmer ;)
*smooth & elegant*
Great mix of oud and velvet!
Lovely :)

This Bottega is also exceptionally glamorous and I love it instantly. Jasmine-leathery-fresh, elegant & confident. Great!

Softer, warmer, and more sensual than the Urduft. Not so cool and distant, but more approachable. It has character, class, and style.

What? No rose, no plum? I noticed a lot of Ambroxan while testing. Nice scent, long-lasting, elegant - Bottega..

It resembles the original BV a lot, but seems a bit more spicy-concentrated. Minimal. A bit softer over time, but the same elegance. Classy!

A reinterpretation of Chypre-leather.
Bold, juicy and sweet, musky and amber-like with a strong note of Ambroxan.

Men, what is it? This one shouldn't be overlooked. A refined leather scent that’s perfect for an evening date!

Similar to the original BV. The leather here is soft, warm, white, and it doesn’t whinny. A true master has blended Ambroxan luxuriously with jasmine.

Not a natural scent, like I usually prefer. But well done. Diffuse, delicate, leather-soft. In my opinion, the most beautiful flanker in the series, without being annoying.
