Absinth by Nasomatto is sharp, green and unmistakably bitter, built around wormwood rather than flowers or fruit. It opens with wormwood and raw green notes, biting and herbal from the first spray. There is little heart to speak of; instead the green bitterness holds steady before Haitian vetiver moves in underneath, earthy and a little damp, like something pulled straight from the ground. Nasomatto makes this one for anyone, men and women alike, and it suits someone who wants a scent that reads as unusual rather than pretty. Voters wear it through fall and winter, at night, in the evening and even during the day, which says something about how versatile it is despite its strangeness. Wearers' longevity votes lean long-lasting, and their sillage votes lean strong too, so one spray is usually plenty. A 3ml decant is plenty to work out whether its green, earthy character suits you.

The community verdict
For someone drawn to dark, green aromas, Absinth sets wormwood and green notes over an earthy Haitian vetiver base. Long-lasting is the leading view on wear, with moderate next; projection likewise leans strong rather than moderate. It suits autumn nights, and winter and evenings work too.

The house
More from Nasomatto
Nasomatto is an Italian niche house that Alessandro Gualtieri launched in 2007, and its perfumes are strange in the best way. Short names, unusual materials and a refusal to play it safe. Across the range you meet ambrette, leather, animal notes and agarwood next to black rose, birch, coffee, chocolate and even cannabis, all on an earthy, mossy, woody frame. Start with Fantomas, Black Afgano or Absinth, each a different door into the house. Almost every one is unisex. A small size is the right way in here: some take a few wears to understand.
