This fragrance is a bit of a mess. I remember reading the blurb about it when it was released and giving out a 'pffft!' at the prospect of it. I thought it's either going to be utter genius or completely awful and in actual fact it's neither. The opening totally reminded me of a fragrance I'd purchased just days before (CdG) Pharell Williams, 'Girl' which also has a really odd unsettling, unnatural vibe to it... They don't really smell alike though. Blamage is a difficult clash of super heavy woody notes, wispy, powdered florals (maybe iris/rose/violet?), something metallic, something ambery, resinous and sharp maybe labdanum and an air of sophistication from saffron? It's a weird thing...if that's what Gualtieri and Nasomatto were going for I think they've succeeded. The heavy 'extrait' feel is certainly in abundance here but it does feel quite chemical for all the efforts to make this a stand out piece of artwork Blamage is just a bit lacking in focus. The Flacon is pretty cool and an interesting if not hideous stopper to go on top of it. This shouldn't detract from the rest of the offerings from Nasomatto which on the whole are great and this definitely fits into a space (perhaps that didn't need filling?)despite being such an oddball.
