I wouldn’t wear it in public, unless I attended some raves or similar events. It’s so unique, so green.
There is not so much about this scent which hasn't been written already but some words. This unique blend is controversial because of the notes and how people experience those. Some people are standing on Hashish note and some people think that this has nothing to do with the Cannabis at all. Anyway I think that some people maybe don’t know the difference of the words Cannabis, Hashish and Marihuana. From their website: “The fragrance aims to evoke the best quality of Hashish.” Hashish is a Cannabis product produced from resinous material of the Cannabis plant and that is one of the main accords and the top note and it’s definitely there. It’s sweety and juicy, dark and resinous scent is amazing with mellow, rich, and smoky oud blend. This is definitely not the Marihuana which is maybe the most known smell of the plant called Cannabis, this is like concentrated form of that. If you want more realistic Marihuana (weed) note I recommend Fragrance Du Bois Cannabis Blue. I love both and those two are really different. Part of ingredients in this juice has been produced in Holland because those are illegal in Italy. This is mysterious powerful extrait de parfum. Enjoy if you have this, this is a piece of art! *I hope no one gets offended. Just wanted to make clear the differences in these notes. Do I love this one? Yes Is it versatile? No, it's very complex and unique. Is it unisex? Absolutely Longevity? All the day Sillage? Huge Office safe? No, I don't think so. Do you get compliments? I don't know but you get noticed for sure. Juice is dark so be careful with light clothes. Thank you for reading and I would appreciate a lot if you want to follow me on IG: @ninamariah_perfumes
I finally got to try the enigmatic and illusive Black Agano! I've literally tried everything from Nasomatto except the hugely (in)famous Black Afgano. Illusive? Surely not? You may think due to it being massively popular, however I have been a victim of that popularity by not being able to get it anywhere due to it being sold out! It's not that I couldn't find it anywhere, sure there where places online but I couldn't justify a blind buy on such an expensive juice, without trying it first. I pretty much knew I would love it but always had doubts in my mind when reading and watching numerous reviews saying it smelled like 'play doh' and other bizarre and frightening things. As soon as I applied it I got a waft of MY signature accord and my fears melted away instantly. Believe the hype! Black Afgano is everything I love about fragrance, truly it's almost perfect...a sublime masterpiece. I really hate to gush like this but it was love at first sniff. Opens with a woody oud note, deep calming then a host of resinous beauty. The top notes are very similar to Myrrhe imperialé from Armani, infact it's similar throughout this fragrance. It's very slightly different with a more woody nature, less sharp with labdanum perhaps? I get the Mary Jane thing but if you're expecting a hugely earthy, or sweet green weed note prepare to be disappointed. It not sticky buds or somekind of modern ICE solid or something more that BA has a hint of a spicy moroccan hashish about it and reminds me of my days as a smoker...but only very slightly mind you. Black Afgano is about the smell of sharpness labdanum, resins, benzoin, myrrh etc...but with a softness nearly gourmand quality and Oud. The drydown is spectacular, deep long lasting and addictive. Longevity and projection are legendary what you'd expect from extrait de parfum and have certainly lived up to the hype in my experience. I have Myrrhe imperiale which I find very similar and usually I would think I have this base covered but I'd buy this anyway...that's how good it is!
