The story behind Scandal Absolu
Scandal Absolu reinterprets the iconic Scandal DNA in the most concentrated, evening-leaning register. The bergamot-pink-pepper-honey opening retains the line's signature dressed-up freshness; the gardenia-orange-blossom heart pulls in dressed-up Parisian floral DNA; and the patchouli-vanilla-caramel base extends the trail into a long, sensual sillage.
Who it's for
Suited to wearers who love rich, dressed-up modern feminine gourmand-florals — fans of the original Scandal, Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium or Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Intensément will find Scandal Absolu a familiar match. Year-round wear with particular strength in autumn and winter; ideal for evening, dinner and special-occasion use.
How to wear it
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, base of the throat, behind the ears — from around 15cm.
- One to two sprays may be enough thanks to the high concentration; build up gently for evening wear.
