Elizabeth Arden Untold Absolu is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2014, created by Clément Gavarry. Untold Absolu opens with Bergamot, Ginger, Plum, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Floral Notes, Jasmine, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Benzoin. Elizabeth Arden's Untold Absolu carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Elizabeth Arden's Untold Absolu is a seriously underrated cheapie that punches well above its weight. It's a warm, sweet, and sensual amber-vanilla that gets rave reviews for its rich, expensive feel, though some find it a touch too generic or weak in its newer formulation.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Untold Absolu opens with a juicy burst of plum and raspberry, brightened by a hint of bergamot and a subtle warmth from ginger. The heart unfolds with a blend of elegant florals, predominantly jasmine and narcissus, adding a touch of classic sophistication. The rich, creamy base is dominated by warm vanilla and tonka bean, softened by cashmere wood and a balsamic sweetness from benzoin. This creates a cozy, amber-infused scent with a smooth, sweet, and slightly powdery finish.
