The french jasmine absolute (rare, expensive and very animalic dirty) is at the heart of this strong perfume.

An animalic jasmine from Nasomatto

It sounds like it could be good. BTW Nasomatto never gives offical notes.

Love the artwork in the 2nd pic

Should be interesting to see how this turns out.

It certainly SOUNDS right up my alley, though given Nasomatto's price range, it'll have to do some heavy lifting to displace Gandhara.

This is out now, available at First In Fragrance. Report in if you've smelled this

I notice they changed the cap between the early previews and now, and the new ad copy makes no mention of jasmine, or for that matter, anything at all to do with fragrance.

Maybe we're just supposed to go with the title and assume it smells like one of these.

Untill they address the leaking bottle issue, my interest in this line is zero. The sad part is I really like some of the line.

Luckyscent now has this. Anyone smell it yet?

I love really pure jasmine fragrances, but this one is going to have to be really good to impress me better than A La Nuit by Serge Lutens, especially at Nasomatto's prices.

I sampled this in Liberty last month...and I didn't really like it. This is one sharp jasmine! I do get an OK opening with realistic topnotes of jasmine (albeit boring), but then it turns into one sharp, synthetic mess. If you're familiar with AG's Jasmine with its notorious sharp ginger which gives it an extremely masculine edge, Nuda is somewhat in its ballpark.

Thanks for the info, Scent! I didn't find the AG aggressive at all ( smelled a little like jasmine and raisins to my nose, pleasant but not true love for me ), so I'd be intrigued to smell it.

In your opinion, is it like Diptyque's Olene or Serge Lutens A La Nuit at all? To my nose those are both very sharp jasmines, but I like Olene's style but not A La Nuit's.

Hmmm...I guess it would probably lean towards A La Nuit because it is a truer jasmine than Olene. I find Olene to be a mix of mostly jasmine along with other white flowers. A La Nuit is just jasmine tenfold. There is something very promising about NUDA but that darn sharp notes gets in the way! I find most Nasomatto's have this jarring note that I find unappealing. I will probably give it another shot if I get the chance, but I won't go ordering samples! And really, you didn't find AG's Jasmin sharp?! My guess is that you would probably enjoy NUDA

scent - the 'sharp' texture of Nuda, is it an aldehydic-sort of smell?

No not at all, to my nose at least. I would probably attribute it to one of the ingredients, or perhaps the nature of the type of jasmine absolute used.

I have tried nuda on my skin last night. The lasting power is overwhelming, i can still smell it on my wrist this morning.

I am not that firm with the fragrance language most of you use, so i will try to describe in my own words (i am german).

when i first sprayed it on my thought was "uhhhh, this is interesting".

it was a very pleasent fresh soft opening with just a tiny little sweetness that was just right and not too much, so it would not prevent me to wear it as a man. it reminded my of some sort of fruit but i unfortunately would not guess what it was. the opening was all naturall and i had no chemical impression.

as time past by nuda developed very interesting, as it changed its face in way i almost couldn´t believe it. suddenly i smelled a somehow dark and a little bit sharp flowery note like flowers after e heavy rain in the early morning. not sweet at all, but heavily attracting me for some reason. it wasn´t a regular attraction, more like "what strange thing is happening here?" Do i really like this?

From then on nuda seemed to jump between these notes and while doing so the first note developed into an absolutely beautiful extremly addictive and attractive jasmin.

There is no cheap or ordinary basenotes, no vanilla, no musk, no patchouli, no amber, no tonka that many perfumes turn out to be like. That´s what i found to be very remarkable.

Nuda is all about Jasmin. From the beginning to its end.

There would probably be much more to describe about nuda but - excuse my beginners nose - these were the outstanding and very remarkable things that i would experience.

I could not help it keep smelling on my wrist all the time.

I own Love & Tears by Kilian and i really like it. Nuda is different though. It is more special. It seems to change clothes without loosing its style. It attracts and appeals to the emotions, it challenges without being offending.

It fits my skin like it was made to be there.

I will be heading out to the store after writing this because there is NO WAY around buying a whole bottle of this. I haven´t had that feeling before and i suppose that´s my keyword.

And it is not that i want to go out there and buy the bottle, it´s even more like i HAVE to do it, like i am forced to to it and there is no way around.

This stuff is highly addictive!!!

I smelled this last week for the first time. Huge indolic jasmine bomb. I like jasmine on others, but it's not my cup-o-tea. Something tells me there must but something similar for far less money.

I liked it when I smelled it, but I thought:

1) Serge Lutens did this already (A La Nuit)
2) The volume could have been turned down just a notch
