I've never smelt Code Absolu so idk if it like it or not BUT it definitely reminds me of Mercedes Benz Club Black EDT (citrusy vanilla) mixed with Althair/Liquid Brun (praline like essence). So it smells like a mix of 3 (or possibly 4) fragrances. Ofc it's not a dupe of anything just close relatives and never the less it smells amazing and gives a sexy ceo not sexy college boy vibe. It has a mature seductiveness. The bottle is kind of goofy but it reminds me of old aramis bottle for some reason
