The fragrance's atmosphere 

For this fragrance, our aim was to create a bold olfactory impression, fusing the energetic heat of molten metal with the freshness of cold metal. It's a true signature fragrance, characterised by an accord of smoky woods and aldehydes. Probably the most surprising, modern and abstract fragrance in the Sources d'Origine collection." A word from the Perfumer. 

Here is the olfactory description of Métal Absolu by Jardin de France  

Top note: The fragrance opens with a lively, lemony note of Thai Lemongrass, bringing an herbaceous, lemony freshness. Madagascar Ginger adds a spicy dimension, creating an energetic and invigorating opening. 

Heart notes: At the heart of the fragrance, Aldehydes, which are synthetic compounds often providing a clean, metallic note, combine with Matcha green tea. This combination can give a sophisticated, modern quality to the composition, with nuances that are both fresh and powdery. 

Base notes: The base notes evoke a certain robustness. Virginia Cedar offers a woody dimension, while Java Vetiver brings a smoky earthiness. Amber in the base adds a resinous, ambery warmth, completing the fragrance as a whole. 

General sensation 

Overall, Metal Absolu appears to be a balanced composition with fresh, spicy, and woody elements, creating a modern and sophisticated olfactory experience. A unique fragrance that blends lemongrass and ginger for a stunning radiance with a warming heart of aldehyde and matcha notes, revealing amber and cedar.
