Its "beast mode" performance and strong, sweet-floral-leather accords make it unsuitable for office wear.

The heavy nature and powerful projection mean it's not a casual or sport fragrance.

About

Rabanne's Absolutely Gold opens with a quick spark of mandarin, which quickly gives way to a dominant, potent floral heart. This floral sweetness, often compared to bubblegum by reviewers, is underpinned by a deep, rich leather base. Hints of animalic warmth weave through, adding complexity and a touch of smoky depth to the overall opulent aroma.
