Aventura Absolu vs Absolu Aventus: What's Different?
Share
Absolu Aventus took the famous pineapple-and-smoke idea of Aventus and made it warmer and spicier. If you love that style, here is how our Aventura Absolu compares.
What Absolu Aventus smells like
It keeps the juicy pineapple and citrus opening of Aventus, then adds warm spices and drier woods underneath. Compared with the original Aventus, it feels richer and more grown-up, and better suited to evenings and cooler weather.
How Aventura Absolu compares
Aventura Absolu opens with pineapple, blackcurrant, grapefruit, pink pepper, lemon and bergamot. The heart is cardamom, cinnamon and ginger, and it dries down to smoky vetiver and patchouli. It follows the same direction as Absolu Aventus: fruity on top, warm and spicy underneath.
It is an extrait de parfum, the strongest standard perfume concentration, so it is made for long wear. Wear time varies with skin and weather.
