This fragrance is designed to evoke an overwhelming, addictive intensity of feminine allure and power. Perfumer: Alessandro Gualtieri

About NASOMATTO

Nasomatto is an experimental niche perfume brand founded in 2007 by Italian perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri, known as 'The Nose,' who crafts bold, provocative extrait de parfums like Black Afgano and Blamage without revealing full ingredient lists, instead describing their emotional effects such as hysteria or fleeting happiness. Drawing from his travels to Oman, India, and Saudi Arabia, and a philosophy of losing control to intuition, the brand features artistic square bottles with unique caps symbolizing each scent's essence. Its signature style blurs gender lines, targets risk-takers, and pushes perfumery boundaries as an olfactory art project.

Pros

Versatile appeal: Considered suitable for both day and evening wear, and particularly well-suited for special occasions or for those who enjoy making a statement with bold florals.

Cons

Specific limitation: Can be polarizing for individuals who are not fond of tuberose, as it is the dominant note.
