Christian Lacroix Absynthe

Christian Lacroix Absynthe

"Creating a fragrance is a very personal-something that shares one's fantasies and loves with the world. It is a wonderful feeling to see a man or woman exude confidence and sex appeal when wearing a scent that I have created." - Christian Lacroix.

Beautiful, Mysterious, Alluring.
Christina Lacroix's intoxicating new scent, Absynthe, explores a fantastic form of escapism inspired by the magic of Absynthe. The captivating new scent invites you to discover more, with notes that unfold to reveal a sophistication that embodies femininity, sensuality and passion.

Absynthe for Her is Lacroix's finest example of capturing the indefinable magic and allure of one's essence. Designed for the beautiful, whimsical and mysterious woman.

Surrender your senses:
Hypnotic- Spellbinding top notes of woody elixir balance with lush Absinthe Extracts, Golden Freesia, Green Anise and Saffron to introduce an intoxicating allure.
Intriguing- Exotic middle notes of Jungle Orchards, Narcissus Nectar and Davana Flower for an exotic heart.
Sensual- The final layer reveals rich woody tones and Myrrh to create a deep, dry luxury- seductive to the senses.

Inspired
Absynthe's magic is graciously captured in a delicate bottle inspired by the intricate embroidered detail of a bull-fighting cape the Christian Lacroix famously transformed into a couture gown. To better reflect the whimsical world of Absinthe, Lacroxi modified the ornate design for Absynthe, designing the bottle with detailed metallic patterns in gold ink.

Lacroxi drew further inspirations from the Absinthe colour Chartreuse- a brilliant shock of bright green. A colour that resonates with his fashion, making his fragrance a standout statement.

Combining the opulence of Christain Lacroix's couture with the irresistible allure and magic of Absynthe, Avon's new crisp green scent vividly evokes the past with an enchanting modern twist.
