Which Should You Buy?
Black Afgano is an icon for a reason, but it's not for the faint of heart. This divisive beast is either a challenging masterpiece of smoky oud and rich resins or an offensive, overpowering mess. You'll either love its dark, narcotic depths or hate its intensity. Sample before committing.
A budget rendition of Nasomatto's cult favourite Black Afgano, the green cannabis-and-oud niche icon. The dark, resinous shape is present, but this version is louder and less blended on first application and lacks the original's dense, waxy oud-incense depth over a full wear.
