NASOMATTO
Some veer towards the classically male, others lean into tropes of womanhood, but most are unisex. A musky concoction, rich in sandalwood with top notes of lemon, will smell divine on anyone. The same goes for a woody blend, swimming with patchouli and spices. Each comes with a story attached, giving an insight into the mind of its creator.
The perfumes in the Nasomatto collection are modern, rich and full of personality reflecting Alessandro's explosive joie de vivre and love of all things. Each is highly concentrated parfum extrait and presented in beautiful bottles.
Nasomatto is Italian for "crazy nose". That should tell you, right away, that this isn't going to be your common-or-garden olfactory experience. Brand founder Alessandro Gualtieri crafts each scent as a personal expression, like a painter wrestling with a canvas. And, like the best artists, he says the art itself eventually takes over the creative process; he becomes merely a vessel for these aromas to formulate themselves into life. If this sounds intense, wait until you sample the perfumes. You'll find several of our favourites here, and they are – without exception – fiercely, uniquely magnificent.
