Nasomatto

Narcotic Venus

Narcotic Venus by Nasomatto is a feminine-leaning extrait de parfum from 2007 in the niche price tier. It opens with tuberose and jasmine, moves into gardenia and orange blossom and dries down to musk and sandalwood. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
• Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.

Heart

• Gardenia Creamy white floral with a mushroomy edge. Lush and old-Hollywood.
• Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.

Dry-down

• Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
• Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
