This is a straightahead kind of thing the perfume equivalent of a new leather clutch handbag. I haven't smelled the original Bottega Veneta so am in no position to do comparisons; L'Absolu to my nose is a nice, smooth, bitter leather of the factory fresh variety, backed by some powdery floral sweetness (indistinct anyone getting a clear whiff of jasmine has a better nose than mine), and rounded off by the usual musk and ambrox broad brush strokes that fill up so much of perfumery's canvases these days. It was one of those tried that, was ok' perfumes that I move on from without ever considering revisiting.
