Bottega Veneta Knot Eau Absolue is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2018, created by Daniela Andrier. Knot Eau Absolue opens with Neroli and Heliotrope, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Myrrh and Opoponax. Bottega Veneta's Knot Eau Absolue carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.

Knot Eau Absolue is a divisive gem. While some find it a luxurious, deep, and sensual amber-floral with a unique vintage charm, others are met with little more than a fleeting hint of mothballs. It's a statement, not a 'safe blind buy', and certainly not for everyone.

About

Opening with a flourish of bright neroli and sweet heliotrope, this fragrance quickly delves into a rich, complex heart of jasmine and a subtle, calming lavender. The true star emerges in the opulent base: a "myrrh bomb" of ancient, balsamic resins, with the deep, somewhat animalic sweetness of opoponax. Imagine rich incense weaving through delicate white florals, creating an enveloping, mysteriously sweet aroma.
