Nasomatto Absinth Extrait de Parfum 30ml is an artistic, niche unisex fragrance from the Amsterdam-based perfume house Nasomatto, launched in 2008 and signed by perfumer-founder Alessandro Gualtieri. Built around an evocative wormwood and green-vetiver accord, the composition is designed by the brand to "evoke degrees of hysteria" and "stimulate irresponsible behaviour" — a deliberately conceptual fragrance that wears more like a statement than a conventional eau de parfum.

Who it's for
Absinth suits collectors and lovers of niche perfumery — those drawn to brands like Etat Libre d'Orange, Comme des Garçons or Blood Concept. As a high-concentration extrait with a deliberately challenging green-and-bitter profile, it is best suited to wearers who already enjoy unconventional fragrances and want a signature that reads as quietly defiant. Unisex by design.
How to wear it
Apply a single spray to clean, dry pulse points — wrists or sides of the neck. Extrait-strength compositions develop more slowly than alcohol-led eau de parfums and project closer to the skin, so the effect is intimate and persistent rather than far-reaching. Avoid layering with other strongly scented products and let the composition bloom on warm skin.
