The review
On paper, Absent In Bloom is a reasonable bet if you want Heures d'Absence for less.
The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Heures d'Absence's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on jasmine sambac and may rose, turns to mimosa, pittosporum and raspberry, and settles into musk, vanilla and sandalwood. That is the brief Absent In Bloom is working from.
Top
- jasmine sambac
- may rose
Heart
- mimosa
- pittosporum
- raspberry
Base
- musk
- vanilla
- sandalwood
Jasmine and mimosa over vanilla and sandalwood, powdery and old-world, a name pulled back from 1927.
