This is somewhat mysterious. Licorice-like but good❤️
Denne er noe mystisk. Lakris aktig meg god❤️
"This bottle of perfume is part of the project Nasomatto. The fragrance aims to evoke the best quality of hashish. It is the result of a quest to arouse the effects of temporary bliss." – The Nose
Black Afgano by Nasomatto is not merely a fragrance with strong appeal; it is an experience of depth and complexity, offering a distinctive rawness that is difficult to define. According to the perfumer himself, Alessandro Gualtieri, Black Afgano is meant to evoke the scent of "Luxury prostitution and the finest cannabis on the market".
A bold statement, but there is certainly truth to it. It is a daring fragrance for those who want to leave a lasting impression and create memorable encounters. Upon its release in 2009, it was immediately praised as unique and is today considered Gualtieri’s breakthrough and one of the great classics in niche perfumery.
Although Alessandro Gualtieri never reveals the notes in his fragrances, the fragrance experts at Gents are fairly certain that the top notes include dry liquorice powder and a herbal spirit reminiscent of classic Underberg. The composition carries a rough, astringent edge (derived from its herbal facets), yet in its depth there is also a subtle sweetness, likely from pomegranate similar to that found in Gajol drinks. We also detect hints of oud and saffron, which lend the fragrance a woody and spicy dynamic in the base, contrasting the sweetness. Whether the perfume actually contains hashish, as the perfumer himself suggests, is debatable, but a certain cannabis-like nuance can indeed be perceived, leaning towards green and liquorice-like tones.

Fantastic smell. My new favorite. Many compliments and questions about which perfume I use.
Fantastisk god lukt. Min nye favoritt. Mange gode tilbakemeldinger og spørsmål om hvilken parfyme jeg bruker.
Hard to put words to the scent, it changes after wearing it for a while. Super satisfied with the scent!
Svårt att sätta ord på doften, doften ändrar sig när man haft den på ett tag. Super nöjd med doften!
Received this as a tester first and was completely enchanted. Like a previous writer, I couldn't stop sniffing myself. And now to the bottle, which was not at all close to the tester. Apparently, this should develop like a fine (wine)? Unfortunately, I haven't noticed that, so sadly a low rating.
Fick denna som en tester först och blev helt förtrollad , som en tidigare skribent så kunde man inte sluta sniffa på sig själv - och nu till flaskan som inte alls ens var i närheten av testern , tydligen så ska denna utvecklas som ett fint (vin)? Inget som jag märkt av så tyvärr lågt betyg
Affordable.
Prisvärd.
Tried samples of this and immediately went for a full bottle. Dark, complex, and absolutely superb. Incredibly cost-effective as one spray can last two days. It is quite potent and lasts a long time. What bothers me is that the opening is a bit special and not at all 100%. It gets better the longer it stays on the skin, and after the dry down, there’s nothing that beats it, so it still gets a 5/5. I can’t stop smelling myself.
Provat samples av denna och slog till på en helflaska direkt. Mörk, komplex och helt suverän. Otroligt prisvärd då ett spray kan räcka två dagar Den är rejält potent och håller sig kvar länge. Det som stör mig är att öppningen är lite speciell och inte alls 100%. Den blir bättre ju längre den sitter på huden och efter dry down finns det absolut inget som slår denna, så den får fortfarande 5/5. Kan inte sluta lukta på mig själv.
Fantastic! I like the scent.
Fantastiskt! Jag tycker om doften.
