Tom Daxon Cologne Absolute is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Cologne Absolute opens with Petitgrain, Neroli, Violet Leaf, and Tarragon, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha and Patchouli. Tom Daxon's Cologne Absolute carries an Acquired verdict, a white floral-led wear.

Tom Daxon's Cologne Absolute is a divisive floral-green affair. Some find it a fresh, sophisticated take on a classic, while others are put off by its green intensity and pronounced white floral femininity. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that stands out.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Its moderate projection and fresh, clean character make it acceptable for office wear, though some might find the white florals a bit too prominent. It's best suited for casual day wear due to its invigorating nature, but its understated elegance could work for certain date settings. The reviews indicate it's not a powerhouse, so it won't overwhelm in closer quarters.

About

It opens with a punchy, verdant blast of violet leaf and petitgrain, sharpened by the anise-like kick of tarragon, giving a distinctly herbaceous and slightly bitter edge. This green wave soon makes way for a heart dominated by delicate lily of the valley and indolic jasmine, lending a clean, soapy white floral core. The dry down introduces a subtle earthiness with patchouli and the woody, slightly smoky depth of cypriol, grounding the earlier freshness with sophisticated appeal.
