JOOP! Homme Absolute by Joop! is a Oriental Fougere fragrance for men. JOOP! Homme Absolute was launched in 2019. The nose behind this fragrance is Antoine Maisondieu. Top note is Black Pepper; middle note is Ylang-Ylang; base notes are Incense, Tonka Bean and Vetiver. For the year of 2019, JOOP! prepared a new version called JOOP! Homme Absolute, which opens a new chapter for the JOOP! Homme fragrance. This time, its bottle is black with a yellow logo, and the house adds that "black is the new pink." JOOP! Homme Absolute's composition is signed by master perfumer Antoine Maisondieu (Givaudan). The fragrance combines a very unexpected floral note with unmistakably masculine basics. It opens with a spicy note of black pepper. This energetic and attractive overture gives way to the flower of Ylang-Ylang, which is more commonly used in feminine perfumes. On the other hand, the base is a very powerful blend of viral notes: fresh and aromatic vetiver, rich tonka bean and a hint of precious incense.The face of the campaign is model Francisco Lachowski, along with his wife Jessieann Gravel Lachowski. The short ad videos are shot by acclaimed director Yvan Fabing. JOOP! Homme Absolute is available as a 40, 80 and 120 ml Eau de Parfum.

A Signature Fragrance
Incense
Incense, a blend of resins, woods, and gums burned for their aromatic smoke, carries an aroma that is at once earthy and ethereal. Its origins trace back to religious ceremonies and spiritual practices, where its smoky, warm scent was believed to bridge earthly and divine realms.
Tonka Bean
Tonka Bean, derived from the seeds of the Dipteryx odorata tree found in South America, brings an essence of vanilla with hints of almond and caramel. Its aroma is both warm and comforting, reminiscent of rich desserts yet grounded by a subtle earthiness that lends depth to any perfume.
Vetiver
Vetiver, harvested from the roots of a tall grass native to India, exudes an earthy aroma that is both dry and slightly sweet. Its scent profile ranges from smoky and leathery to green and fresh, depending on how it’s distilled and aged. This versatile note thrives in tropical climates and has long been cherished for its grounding qualities.

Fragrances that pair well with JOOP! Homme Absolute Joop!
Incense Pine Leather
Dark Leather's black tea, pine and leather add a cold, green edge to Joop! Homme Absolute's incense and ylang-ylang warmth, so a smoky amber floral turns into something sharper and more animalic. Both stay woody at the core, which keeps the combination from feeling disjointed.
Spray Joop! Homme Absolute first for the incense-ylang warmth, then layer Dark Leather Eau de Toilette at the wrists so the pine and leather cut through it.
