Valentino Valentina Assoluto
Valentino Valentina Assoluto - eau de parfum for women
Valentina Assoluto by Valentino - "From this sensual grace and magnetic femininity, the master perfumer Olivier Cresp has recreated the quintessence of Valentina, by giving it an intense fragrance, adorned with a chypre signature. The freshness and exuberance of bergamot and white Alba truffle turn into a caress with an elegant note of Smeggia peach. In this luminous and immediately sensual trail, blossoms a bouquet of jasmine and tuberose, touched by delicate vanilla. Finally, cedar opens the way to oak moss and patchouli, as a mark of chypre, the vibrant touch of this perfume melting onto the skin. The blend of these noble ingredients creates a magical formula that comes to life on the skin and transforms it into an unmistakable and necessary final touch: a designer fragrance." --valentino.com

Valentino Valentina Assoluto
The Bottle - The distinctive, sumptuous character of Valentina also inspired the design of the new Assoluto bottle. Extremely linear in shape, made of brown opaline glass and illuminated with amber reflections, it is adorned with one large flower, the emblem of Valentino couture. The sleek, luxurious bottle has an ornate copper cap, topped by a black pearl. The fragrance comes in a box decorated with a floral pattern in relief.
The Muse - Intriguing, magnetic, and unpredictable, Valentina toys with seduction as the protagonist of a story full of exciting, quintessential sensations. A mosaic of architectural views, stylistic touches, and period ornamentation. Sensual glimpses of skin and lace, body and couture. Sumptuous traces revealing beauty and unconventional, contemporary femininity within an ancient palazzo. Contemporary and chic, Valentina loves to surprise us, whether she slips away in the dark or shines in the spotlight, and she offers us precious new information about her stylistic heritage. Her lifestyle and "joie de vivre" inspire the fashions of Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli and have turned her into the captivating and charismatic muse of the modern world of Valentino.

Fashion Scents - Because no outfit is complete without a luxe designer perfume to match.
The allure of designer fragrances can be traced back to the launch of Coco Chanel's famous No. 5 in 1921, and the rest, as they say, is history. Since then, thanks to the busywork of fashion's finest houses from Saint Laurent to Valentino, such sparkling incarnations have become ubiquitous. This spring, newcomers like Reem Acra, who was inspired by heady amber notes from her native Lebanon, and L'Wren Scott, whose blend is spiked with rock-and-roll-esque absinthe and star anise, join the club with the debut of their namesake perfumes. So spray on: A sartorially inspired scent is a fashion lover's best accessory.
