Launched in 2017 by Valentino and crafted by perfumer Sonia Constant, Valentino Donna Noir Absolu is an Oriental Floral fragrance that translates vivid femininity into a narcotic and voluptuous experience. This leathery gourmand oriental fragrance combines the spice of black pepper with a lascivious rose, creating a collision of contrasts. The decadence of plum liquor meets sensuous leather and sandalwood, resulting in an utterly addictive scent. Donna Noir Absolu is presented in ebony studded glass bottles with gold accents, signifying defiant grace.

How It Wears
Application Tips
Apply two sprays to pulse points for an enduring effect. The pepper note is bright but fleeting, so allow it to settle before layering with other scents or clothing. Best worn in cooler evenings when its warmth can truly shine.

The story behind the bottle.
The quiet intensity of a woman's study late at night, where the warm glow of a desk lamp casts shadows on antique volumes and the scent of liquor-soaked plums lingers in the air.
