description
After six years of smelling and testing, the perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri unveils in 2009 a creation that marks the world of perfumery: Black Afgano. Evoking the scent of hashish of the highest quality, this fragrance of the woody trilogy of the house Nasomatto presents a variation around the oud and plays the role of precursor within this trend in the 2010s. An opaque black water is captured in a bottle made in Italy, with a cap made of burnt oak wood in reference to the resin that is burnt and slowly consumed. The untraditional hashish scent of this perfume extract is built around oud, spiced with saffron and vanilla, mixed with the power of ambrox: a true tribute to the resinous substance taken from the flowers and leaves of the cannabis plant. A narcotic scent that ends with a chord of gaiac wood and gurjum balsam, for a woody, amber and spicy fragrance with a dark scent and an extraordinary hold. A fragrance coveted by my aficionados of very powerful notes that perfectly matches one of the other emblematic juices of the House: Narcotic V, with green and woody notes for a suave effect.

nose reviews

The quest for fleeting happiness with Black Afghano takes us on a well-worn path that leads to the oud and incense. Alesandro Gualtiéri succeeds in taking us on a journey where the lingering notes of cannabis mingle with the freshness of green notes in the top; tobacco and coffee in the heart; resins, woody notes of oud and incense in the bottom. Its intense composition blends with spicy accords for a unisex fragrance that will please all lovers of fragrance with a woody amber trail.

In the top, an overdose of raspberry that rests on a base composed of modern woody notes like ambrox. The final result is very balmy.

journalist opinion

This composition is preceded by its sulfurous reputation. An extract of marijuana would be hidden somewhere in the formula. This is obviously false! Not for reasons of propriety or morality (the olfactory police, thank God, do not exist). The truth is that such an extraction simply does not exist. What creates the illusion of these interloped places where one loses oneself in the clandestine vapors, are all these balsamic notes associated with the tobacco and herbaceous effluents. If it is not a forbidden perfume that falls under the law, Black Afgano reveals itself to be a beautiful "matièré" oriental that exhales more of the incense that cannabis users burn to disguise the suspicious smell, a wonderful illustration of a return to the instinctive sources of perfumery.
