Scents of eras: how perfume reflects the spirit of the times
Every era has its own scent. Not literally, but in how it felt: what it wanted, what it feared, what...
In 2020, the world of perfumery was puzzled by the emergence of 2020, when Nasomatto — a brand known for its bold creativity — launched the fragrance Fantomas in the concentration Perfume (Extract).
This unisex perfume immediately drew attention with its provocative accents, challenging traditional notions of scents.
Nasomatto is not just a niche perfume house, but a loud declaration of creative freedom that challenged the entire industry.
Founded by Alessandro Gualtieri, the brand is renowned for fragrances that explore the dark and light sides of human nature, and Fantomas is a prime example of this, combining elements of art and performance.
The composition of Fantomas is a bold cocktail of contrasts, where sweetness meets industrial motifs.
Although the pyramid is not divided into standard levels, the notes intertwine, creating a dynamic experience that unfolds like an exciting story on the skin.
Key groups include Sweet, Fruit, and Mineral chords, reflected in the Sweet, Fruit, and Mineral families, making the fragrance multifaceted and intriguing for discussion in perfume communities.
Fantomas has a medium sillage that is not intrusive but noticeable, perfectly suited for those who value a balance between personal space and social presence.
For optimal effect, it is recommended to apply pointwise on the skin so that the fragrance unfolds intimately and gradually, and to enter the cloud when spraying on clothing for a more lasting and voluminous presence throughout the day or evening.
This fragrance is suitable for autumn and winter evenings, as well as for bold outings where its uniqueness will become a topic for discussion and compliments.
If Fantomas has intrigued you, pay attention to similar perfumes that also explore boundaries: Orto Parisi Seminalis, Zoologist Perfumes Bat, and Noses Megamarine, offering alternative perspectives on aromatic art.
Behind the creation of Fantomas is the genius Alessandro Gualtieri, a perfumer whose works always border on art and philosophical reflections.
His approach to Nasomatto is a constant search for new forms of expression, and Fantomas strengthens the brand's reputation as a pioneer in niche perfumery, attracting the attention of connoisseurs worldwide.

By the way, the same story happened with Black Afgano. After reading about sweaty donkeys and unwashed Afghans, I went with hopes for something amazing, but no, it didn't amaze me. It's quite a cozy scent, a bit oriental, but nothing more. I'm convinced, as Dr. House said: everyone lies, trust only your nose. So go ahead and try this Fantomas. Reality fully confirms the saying: the devil is not as terrible as he is painted. In reality, it's just a cute and charming little guy
Modern stories, like Arsène Lupin and others, come alive again, but Fantomas stands out among them. It's like a shadow that envelops Paris, like a dragon ready for action. Gualtieri created not just a fragrance, but an entire universe full of mysteries and adventures.
Seven years have passed since the first creation, Blamage, appeared, and each new fragrance evokes a storm of emotions. At the end of 2020, Nasomatto presented us with a new monster, and once again, disputes and discussions flared up around it. Fantomas confidently walks the streets, remaining unnoticed, but its presence is felt everywhere.
This fragrance seems to dissolve into the crowd, blending with other scents, and leaves a light trace behind. It catches glances, lifts spirits, and departs without a trace. But its aftertaste remains in the air - sweet and eerie at the same time.
Fantomas is not just a fragrance, it's an entire story full of adventures and mysteries. Alessandro Gualtieri created a character who is multifaceted and mysterious, just like the fragrance itself. Whether it remains in our memory or passes by - it's up to us to decide. We have the right to choose )
There's no usual balance here; everything sounds sharp and loud, as if each element is trying to outshout the others. Dark images arise in my head: earth scarred by war, the smell of gunpowder that stings the nose. Garbage, food scraps, and plastic all around, creating an atmosphere of hopelessness.
This fragrance seems to transport you to a cemetery where the spirit of death lingers. Earthy notes, heavy patchouli, and a chemical melon smell, like leftovers from a picnic at a funeral. It causes anxiety and even depression. And this isn't the only such fragrance from Nasomatto; there are others that evoke conflicting emotions.
A complex, very complex fragrance! But it's precisely in this conceptual nature that there's something attractive. It evokes contradictory feelings: you want it and at the same time it repels you. There's a certain magic in this contrast. I thought for a long time whether I needed it in my collection. And now, I've come to the conclusion - yes, I do! I'll try wearing it, let's see how our relationship develops

With Fantomas, the situation was a bit different, but not without consequences either. I applied it to a blotter, and although it seemed strange at first, it wasn't too unpleasant. My husband rated it as "unusual," but after 15 minutes, I felt sick again. Not as intensely as with DKNY, but I still couldn't tolerate any fragrance for another day. My husband also noticed that the smell became unpleasant for him.

This is just my opinion, of course. Everyone has their own preferences, and I understand that someone might find something amazing in these fragrances. I simply have a physical intolerance, while someone else might have seen the cosmos in them. It's great that we have such different perceptions
