Nasomatto, an Italian niche perfume brand founded by Alessandro Gualtieri in 2007, is known for its distinctive and bold scents. The brand’s name, which means “crazy nose” in Italian, reflects Gualtieri’s unconventional approach to fragrance creation. Nasomatto's story is marked by a desire to explore and push the boundaries of olfactory experiences.
One of the most notable aspects of Nasomatto is the unique and often mysterious nature of its perfumes. The brand typically releases fragrances with intriguing backstories and concepts, each bottle embodying a different facet of Gualtieri's creative vision. Nasomatto's approach often involves using a limited number of high-quality ingredients to create complex and memorable scents.
The debut of Nasomatto’s first fragrance, Black Afgano, in 2009, set the tone for the brand’s reputation for bold and provocative compositions. The scent is inspired by the quest for the perfect hashish and is known for its deep, dark, and smoky profile. Each subsequent release continues to reflect Gualtieri’s passion for exploring the unconventional and the avant-garde in the world of perfume.
