A second chance

I had already tested Absolument Absinthe a few days ago and found it to be too sweet for me.
Today at over 30°C I decided to give it another try.
Well, I took the test in the evening and immediately caught a rebuke from my husband that you don't do something like that in the evening because then you "stink" all night long. Well, isso.
Immediately after spraying on my nose, I was shocked and pulled it back again. I smelled the biting note of hairspray.
So I waited a little longer, but I didn't even have to wait that long.
Then a very floral scent of lily of the valley quickly developed. But I am still looking for a discreet Ylang Ylang.
Now it's been 2 hours since I sprayed it on my wrist and I smell ylang ylang and not massive, not obtrusive but very pleasantly soft.
I think this scent still has a chance. Perhaps it will end up as a bottle in my collection

It's time to take up the cudgels!

For a fragrance whose image is probably much worse than he himself. His biggest problem is probably the naming as well as his pyramid.
And this is probably partly because "absinthe" and "hemp" are two components that sound wicked and forbidden at first sight. But also here a second look might be worthwhile, because:
Absinthe is available with up to 89 percent alcohol by volume, but otherwise its harmful effects do not exceed those of other beverages with the same percentage by volume.
But if you are already in this fairway, it is not a long way to think of a pack of smoking hippies when you think of "hemp". But also here it is important to differentiate in my opinion: Hemp has been known for over four and a half thousand years for its tasty and digestible seeds, and the same applies to the use of its fibres in the production of clothing and ropes. Now that you are reading this, it will certainly look familiar to you ;)
So. Let's approach the test of the fragrance with an open mind and without prejudice.
That doesn't make him better at first, but certainly not worse.
For me the opening is very green and fresh. And just a short time later I feel as if I had just got out of the washing machine myself. For me it is the association of fresh laundry. A real clean man, fresh flowery notes, which I am not able to differentiate further apart from Ylang-Ylang. If I look at it benevolently, I simply want to believe the pyramid that it is lily of the valley, jasmine and lotus.
After I have recovered from the first freshness kick, I notice something scratchy, which increases in intensity as the fragrance progresses and remains at a noticeable level until the end. Could be the black tea, at least that's how I know this scratching.
I also notice a sweet component that smells of aniseed. This gives me a good idea of the name I have been given.
Nothing else is apparent to me. Also no bitter connotations, which I would have suspected because of wormwood.
"Absolument Absinthe" remains refreshingly scratchy until late in the evening, even though it naturally becomes more and more skin-tight and the initial opulence fades away. However, this is not a disadvantage for me personally, as I would like to enjoy my olfactory pleasure more for myself and only "people close to me" would like to enjoy it.
I wouldn't have bought "Absolument Absinthe." And even as a sample, it probably would have been at the bottom of my list. But since I got it as a 3ml sample as an encore, the question of "what to do" was of course obsolete. I probably won't buy it even after my test, although price/performance is absolutely okay for me with currently 109€/100ml. But I'm glad that I have dealt with the fragrance.
I wouldn't have thought of that before!

For my evaluation I would like to add something else: actually I would have to rate the fragrance with 10, to counteract this, in my opinion, too bad evaluation. Of course I do not do that. But I wanted to have mentioned it :)

Absinthes for children

Surely Absinthe is more something for adults, as punch and all other alcoholic drinks are. But just as there is harmless children's punch, there are apparently also children's absinthes - how else can one explain what the intention for this fragrance was?

Especially in the beginning Absolument Absinthe comes with a quick citrusy touch, but sometimes you can find a mixture of black tea and the often quoted sweet tinned mandarins.

Included is a rich spray of cheap hairspray and above all a lot of lily of the valley, which could describe this Absinthe more in the direction of sour synthetic & fat florality. This is not quite pleasant.

After a good half hour, he then reaches a level that makes you a little more conciliatory. In this phase the lemon appears a bit purer, the composition as a whole a bit greener and clearer, the background softer - but still without the characteristic of absinthe.

Even in the late phase the whole thing looks more harmonious and more wearable, but absinthe is still a failure.

What the fragrance needs is definitely the warmth of the skin. On the paper Absolument Absinthe is a complete disaster and will probably produce some sniffy grimaces, so unpleasant chemical it can have an effect on you.

Because he is not that bad after all - at least in the late phase. If you're completely into Absinthe, you might be bitterly disappointed. Maybe you should have added some wormwood instead of lily of the valley. This is indeed bitter, but it's more appropriate to the topic.
The green fairy will not appear as a vision or in a dream and even as absinthe for children this creation is not really suitable.

There are clearly better ones, like Fou d'Absinthe by L'Artisan Parfumeur, Absinthe Bleu Glaces by My Inner Island or Absinthe by Franck Boclet, just to name a few examples. I think many perfumos can easily continue the series. Absolumente Absinthe is definitely not one of the serious recommendable ones!
