Black Afgano

Black Afgano by Nasomatto – dropped in 2009, cooked up by the one and only Alessandro Gualtieri, and easily one of the most talked-about scents in the game. This one’s a dark, smoky, and bold ride that’s made for anyone—guys or gals—who want to smell straight-up different. The opening hits you like a smack in the face—cannabis, green notes, davana, saffron, and thyme all swirling together for a green, herbal, spicy punch that feels a little wild and a lot intriguing. Then the middle kicks in with a smoky, woody, and slightly sweet vibe—resins, woods, tobacco, coffee, raspberry, cinnamon, and violet—yeah, it’s a crazy mix, but somehow it works. You get that dark, smoky resin vibe with a little sweetness and a bit of spice to keep it from going too heavy. The base is where it settles into its signature mood—oud, incense, amber, tonka, vanilla, guaiac wood, ambroxan, animalic notes, cedar, gurjan balsam, and musk. It’s smoky, woody, slightly sweet, and has that deep, dark, almost mysterious vibe that sticks to your skin like a story waiting to be told.

Final Verdict: Black Afgano by Nasomatto is bold, smoky, and earthy—perfect for those who want a scent that’s a little wild, a little sweet, and a whole lot of “whoa.” It’s a night-out scent, a signature scent for the bold, and definitely not a “safe” office fragrance. It’s a dark, resinous powerhouse that’s not for the faint of heart—but if you can rock it, you’ll smell unforgettable.
