*RARITY: Valentino Uomo Noir Absolu Eau de Parfum 100 ml with original packaging – discontinued & sought-after*

Like a darkened room late in the evening, with incense still lingering in the air: Noir Absolu is the darkest and quietest expression of the Uomo line. It settles warmly and slightly smokily on the skin, staying close without being overpowering. Above a brief, peppery-spicy opening of black pepper and cinnamon lies incense, slowly transitioning into creamy sandalwood.

Valentino is an Italian fashion house whose Uomo men’s line stands for warm, enveloping fragrances. Noir Absolu was the darkest interpretation of this line – more serious and deeper than the brighter versions otherwise known from Valentino.

The fragrance has been discontinued for some time and is no longer produced. It is accordingly sought-after on the second-hand market and regularly changes hands for more than its original retail price – a bottle that is no longer easy to find.

The fragrance was tested only once and is practically in new condition. Original packaging included, with light signs of use on the box.

I am currently reducing my large fragrance collection and will focus more strongly on experimental niche fragrances in the future. That is why some of my treasures may move on to a new owner. Feel free to also take a look at my other listings.

The fragrance was always stored in a cool, dry place protected from light.
