Nasomattos Pardon takes a dark, woodsy richness and nudges it — ever-so-gently — into a surprisingly softer direction for the Italian niche line.
As seems fitting with the names connotations of polite society and gentility, Pardon tones down the lines characteristic hard-core intensity. Unlike the brute, narcotic beauty of Black Afgano or the forward wildness of Duro, Pardon wants to persuade you of its masculine elegance and charm, reverberating, creating a fragrance at once seductive and refined. Pardon, like the solarized image of the dandy in its ads, manages to evoke vintage while smelling supremely modern.
"I begin to make something but at a certain point, it starts making choices by itself. It is the process that interests and guides me. I like the feeling of losing control and I’m not the one making the choices. My involvement is to create something that is alive and able to say new things. I want my perfumes to have an intelligence of their own, not just be slaves to my meaning." Alessandro Gualtieri
Designer Nasomatto has 12 perfumes in our fragrance base. Nasomatto is a new fragrance brand. The earliest edition was created in 2008 and the newest is from 2018. The nose who worked on the fragrances is Alessandro Gualtieri. The perfumes in Nasomatto’s collection are modern, rich and full of personality, reflecting Alessandro’s explosive joie de vivre and love of all things fragranced. Each one is highly concentrated parfum extrait (the lasting power is remarkable) and presented in beautiful, stacked architectural bottles topped with wooden caps.
