Donna Noir Absolu

Over time, Sonia Constant has managed to carve out a place of choice in the world of scents. Among the 50 women perfumers of France, she is currently one of the most renowned noses. For her, perfumery was her destiny. A sensitive, hardworking and passionate woman, she has kept from her rural childhood a taste for nature. And it is precisely this love of plants that is found in her latest composition for the Valentino house. Valentino Donna Noir Absolu is a complex essence, revealing a new face of the rose.

The history of the Valentino Donna family

The workshops of the Valentino house are located in the heart of Rome, more precisely in the Palazzo Mignanelli. This historic house of the Italian capital possesses a timeless elegance that gives it its singularity. And it is precisely to pay tribute to it that the Valentino Donna fragrance was created in 2015. This juice possesses all the poetry and refinement of Valentino. It is in perfect harmony with the image one has of Italian women. It possesses an undeniable charm as well as a strong character. Initially, this translated into a unique fragrance, subtle and light, based on a floral luminosity typically Italian. Then, in 2017, Valentino Donna became Valentino Donna Acqua, highlighting pear, green almond, rose and frangipani. Valentino Donna Noir Absolu is thus the third version of this collection. This time, it is a matter of floral romanticism paired with a strong dose of impertinence.

The floral recipe of Valentino Donna Noir Absolu

Through Valentino Donna Noir Absolu, Sonia Constant let all her love of flowers come through. Thus, rose is the major ingredient of this composition. Nevertheless, here it is worked in a wilder, more spirited aspect than usual. Moreover, this can be felt from the very opening of this fragrance. Valentino Donna Noir Absolu takes flight on a breath of black pepper. Its heart, meanwhile, becomes more gourmand. It pairs plum with liqueur. Finally, Valentino Donna Noir Absolu gradually becomes creamier. Its base wraps itself in the sweetness of sandalwood. Leather, meanwhile, reinforces the animalic quality of the whole while making Valentino Donna Noir Absolu a particularly sensual juice.
