Jo Malone has launched Gardenia & Oud Absolu, a new fragrance.
A vision of radiant white gardenias blooming in the sun, infusing the air deep in the Arabian desert. A captivating contradiction: a solar floral emerging from the depths of smoky, sultry oud and warm amber. Unexpected and alluring with a smooth finish enhanced by enduring white musk.
Jo Malone Gardenia & Oud Absolu is $290 for 100 ml at Neiman Marcus.

Rather a glamourous bottle and it might be more of a heavy-hitter than usual. It does seem a little “If you don’t think our regular perfumes are expensive enough, try this one!”
Yes, the Absolu series is just that! I think the last one was Violet & Amber Absolu.

I haven’t liked any of these oud series super intense scents, very harsh and aggressive to my nose.
