Absinth Nasomatto for women and men

I did like this one a lot, I love all absinth related scents, it smells very armoise to me, more herbal than the drink itself. I d prefer it the other way around, e.g. how it works with the absinth of artisan perfumer, but this is quite decent too!

Green-smelling and earthy, this green-colored perfume captures the sharp, bitter essence of the artemesia plant extracts that are in absinthe without adding its anise flavor. There’s also a strong vetiver base note. As it dries down, it becomes a little sweeter, more resinous, and woody, with subtle hints of spice and vanilla. Later, there’s a musty, musky note that persists after the green ones are gone.

Sillage is excellent, but longevity is only 4-5 hours. Although this is not my favorite Nasomatto creation, I very much like the earthy, herbal nature of this Absinthe.

I'm picking up the decrepit sweetness of old and stale candy mixed with the mustyness of mushrooms. Neither scent is good to wear so they definitely don't mix here, and it's making me want to hurl. Absinth is a scrubber.

This is interesting perfume. I've expected something different... something like black afgano (earthy, woody, green scent) but with wormwood as main note.
Here we have wormwood with company of woody notes, cacao (i guess). All those nothes are bathed in honey or something else as sweet... I was taken by surprise
All in all - nice, natural, olfactive experience.
Unfortunatly minus for saying power. It's pure parfum but it's quite weak ;/

My very favourite and the only from the Nasomatto perfumes, which I like enough to buy. Unusual, soft, inoffensive and pleasant. Something new which I don't have to force myself to understand. It is just an easy, lovely fragrance which is very relaxing, very calming. As donniekaterina put it, it is natural and complex at the same time.

It really creates hysteria and attraction. It is a sex perfume that intrigues to games and fantasies. It defines the male side but not only. perfect for fusion.

I am in love with Absinth and also I am in love with Nasomatto,his creations are so well blended and take cared,the effect is really natural and complex at the same time.Absinth is a night walk in the forest picking mushrooms,smelling mud(dirt) and mould.Along with the green and the roots I detect something sweet maybe truffles!? It's f@#$king amazing.

A very complex fragrance indeed...
It grew on me .. the more I add to my wrist and arms the better it got ...
but try to name the notes ...hmmm.

Definitely a green herbal note ..
then a smoked burnt incense ..
a dark tea of some sort ...
and then a Moss...or a Mushroom ..
earthy .. and calming...
WOORMWOOD ???

The more I sniff,
the more I want to
add some more ...ahhh
That's the ....narcotic effects of ABSINTHE!!!!

When we're talking about unusual perfumes, this is among the top niches. I smell smoky grass, a little sweet as paradoxical as it may seems, it is like bitter champagne made by plants. My description is unorthodox -i know- but i trully like this scent. Something is burned here, but it smells fresh and bittersweet!!! I can't describe how much this fascinates me, but -what a frustration- it doesn't last on my skin!!!! It's a special odore, for very picky people with ecclectic, uneasy tastes. Expensive, but it's worth it all the way!!!. 10-11-09, 11.04

Softspoken and caressing compared with the others I´ve tried from Nasomatto (China White and Black Afghano).

The top notes are very herbal and kind of uplifting, but I don´t care much for them anyway. The basenotes are so much nicer, a very soft take on papery vetiver, creamy animalic musk and something more I can´t really pinpoint.

Even tough the basenote is really pleasant this perfume fail to make an lasting impression on me. It is very unnoticable considering it being a part of Nasomatto´s quite provocative range of perfumes.

I find it to be suitable for both man and women.

This opens with ,IMHO,a harsh,and to my nose,offensive top note of something I can only assume is supposed to be absinthe. After about an hour it mellows into an earthy scent,(old leather,musk,and vetiver?)that stays close to the skin but disappears after four hours. Definitely a male scent,just not this male.
