of the passion fruit and blossom orange base of Absolut Karnival with refreshing mint and lime notes. While the
‘Pin-‐Up’ celebrates union and life, and is expressed through the signature notes of vanilla, combined with
zesty tinges of the pineapple and the citrus base of Absolut Karnival.

Spirit’. It celebrates the young spirit within us all, and is expressed through a unique marriage of 5 different citrus notes; lime, lemon, orange, orange blossom and passion fruit – topped off with guava, resulting in are freshing blend that will ignite the young spirit in us all.
