Valentino Valentina Assoluto is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012, created by Olivier Cresp. Valentina Assoluto opens with Truffle, Bergamot, and Peach, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Tuberose, and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Valentino's Valentina Assoluto carries a Statement verdict, an earthy-led wear.

Valentina Assoluto is a divisive beast. Some adore its creamy, earthy sensuality, celebrating its complex blend of truffle and tuberose. Others find it underwhelming, even 'boring' or 'like basic toilet spray.' It's sophisticated but certainly not a blind buy.

About

A dark, juicy peach and earthy truffle kick things off, quickly joined by rich, creamy tuberose and sweet vanilla. As it settles, a woody and mossy patchouli base emerges, lending a serious, almost animalic depth to the floral sweetness. It's a journey from bright fruit to a mysterious, sophisticated dry-down.
