Black Afgano by Nasomatto

hihi... and if police stops me when I'm drivig the car and smelling like this?... To be honest I like this stuff. It begins like Versilia Vintage Ambra Mediterranea by Profumi del Forte, meybe less sweet, but the end note is definitely cannabis. Very self-sufficient fragrance. I can imagine a big adult successfull man, wearing it. Not sure, if I am enough cool to be owner of this Parfum. Maybe if I wear a black dress and red lipstick it would pass?

LOL...
seriously. associating this scent with any illegal substances out there is like this mental image of teenagers puffing away on oregano because it smells, well, 'green'.
having said that, BA is a nice 'dark' scent with a clear oudh character, because if this smells like anything at all, the closest i could liken this to is oudh.
and the 'other stuff'? the connection between BA and a piece of hash is very vague, more of a thing imagined (or rather forced into imagination) than recognised. very unfortunately, it quickly turns strangely bitter-sweet & sour-ish on my skin, to the point it reminds me of the Swiss Arabian's 'Rakaan', which is apparently one of the favorites of the company, but which i couldn't stand.
for all the curiosity and expectations, this is a bitter disappointment, and a totally unexpected scrubber.
(but - if this would go with your chemistry, then considering it took me ages to get rid of, the lasting power must be excellent)

I could swear Black Afgano has rue on its notes (a perennial evergreen shrub with bitter strong-scented lobed leaves that are used in herbal medicine. Family Rutaceae).
Take care. The perfume is so powerful it can stain. Perhaps that's why I love it.
Rare and expensive

I don't know what hash smells like, but it must smell like oud. That's what I get from this; Strong, true oud with faint coffee notes. It lasts forever and is certainly perfect for oud lovers, but if strong woody resins aren't your thing, you will not like this. If oud is your true love, you must sample.

Wonderful! This is scent for someone who's self-confident and loves rich powerful perfume. Definitely evocative of hashish but first impression and drydown has definite incense and sandalwood notes. Sweet the way very dark chocolate is. Yes, it's expensive but it is unique. I would suggest getting a sample from Lucky Scents before you invest.

This is wonderful stuff. Makes me think of a strong patch, but more interesting. I shelled out big bucks for an ounce, with only Rebella's review(and a few experiences from my younger days)to go on. And I was not dissappointed. A definite plus is the staying power of this great scent, very unusual for me, as my skin EATS perfume. I'm not sure it's sexy, but I don't even care, I wear this one for ME.

This is so much more then the smell of cannabis. This is the best interprention of hashish I´ve ever smelled, even better then most types of real cannabis I think. ;)

This is the smell of a cool night, with a sky filled with stars, in the Afghan mountains. You sit around a campfire and there´s that pipe going around... The smoke make you feel relaxed and content. Somebody starts telling a true story about his grand fathers adventures in the mountains.

One of the best olfactory trips I´ve encountered. Smell of high quality hashish, light smoke, warm wood, also notes of both sweet and brisk character. A very complex and strange perfume. It make my imagination running wild, even tough I´m not totally comfortable with it. I have problems with smoky and brisk notes, even tough Black Afghano is not as big problem for me to wear as some other smoky/brisk perfumes I´ve tried. It have similarities to Serge Lutens Serge Noire, but is more wearable on me, but as complex and masterly done.

A must try for both man and women that know they can carry of really smoky and brisk kind of perfumes. Also a must try for everyone liking strange olfactory trips! For the right person worth every penny even tough it´s an expensive perfume! Longlasting, two drops goes a looong way, excellent sillage, be careful so people don´t think you actually have smoked some really good sh*t!
