Italian fashion house Bottega Veneta (Coty) began building its fragrance collection with the first feminine Eau de Parfum edition in 2011, a fragrance that reflects both a modern, as well as timeless style of the chypre-leather composition. The first perfume was soon joined by Bottega Veneta Pour Homme (2013), the signature masculine fragrance of the collection.

In fall 2018, Bottega Veneta introduces the new fragrance for women L'Absolu Eau de Parfum, which offers a more intense interpretation of the sophisticated leather chypre character of the signature, and is reportedly distinguished by the use of the finest natural ingredients that are synonymous with Bottega Veneta scents.

Made by master perfumer Michel Almairac in collaboration with Bottega Veneta, this warm and enveloping blend contains the signature refined leather accord, complemented by sambac jasmine absolute and ambroxan. Adding ambroxan, an element that evokes the scent of natural ambergris, brings a new depth to the composition – it will have new musk, wood and amber accents.

Top notes: bergamot, pink pepper
Heart: Sambac jasmine absolute
Base: leather, patchouli, ambrox, vanilla


The bottle, inspired by Venetian glass, is colored in ombré rosewood. Bottega Veneta L'Absolu will be available as a 50 ml Eau de Parfum.

I’m so happy I bought this new Bottega Veneta L’Absolu perfume. It smells similar to the original but sweeter and more intense. I can see why it is a winter scent (musk). I love the scent of leather and jasmine. Its a classy scent. This can also be worn in any season. The original and this one are my favorite. I’m so happy I bought it today bec it was the last one at the BV store. It was just released last month. The sales lady told me that this perfume sell out real fast. Its only sold at Bottega Veneta. Not yet at the Nordstrom. I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this. I can’t get enough of this scent.

Bottega Veneta has no mercy for my account balance. In addition to the basics I have owned for years, I finally bought both Eau Sensuelle and Eau de Velours last winter. Then they started tempting me with Knot Eau Absolue. I've been resisting, but thought that maybe this winter... And now they come up with this. What am I supposed to do?

The EDP is probably my most loved fragrance (you could call it a "signature" but honestly if you have over 50 bottles of perfume, there's no such thing) so I'm very interested! Can't wait to go and sniff it!

These sound nice to smell out of the bottle, but I have to be careful with chypres. If the patch note is too dominant, it's the only one that will show up on my skin.

Oooh, this is tempting!

I finally got my hand on the Eau de Velours version and they already start teasing me with a new one;)

Judging by the notes it could be softer than the original, which is too earthy for me, and that would be perfect!
