Basenotes Reviews

Is there any interest in splitting Black Afgano for the upcoming fall and winter season? Now this is some EXPENSIVE juice so getting in on a split is defiantly the way to go.

The journey down to the inky heart of Black Afgano is a scent trip only for the daring among you. If you’re a lover of light, bright and airy fragrances, then you’ll want to stop reading right about...now. Aiming to capture the qualities of hashish (without the police banging down your door), mystery and intrigue has followed this perfume since its inception. Rumors swirled that the debut of Afgano was held up for months due to the necessary procurement and smuggling of the.. eh, “raw material” (nudge nudge, wink wink). But it was definitely worth the wait. For those asking the obvious, no, it doesn’t smell exactly like burning hashish... or so we hear, of course. Black Afgano is meant to capture some of the scent qualities and all of the effects of the herb: smoky, smooth and deep; a mellow yet deep and distinct fragrance high. The black colored perfume is a study in how to arouse the effects of temporary bliss, without all the side effects. Rich and hypnotic, with dark and dangerous notes like coffee, oud, tobacco and hash, this is a beautifully relentless and utterly enveloping scent. Black Afgano is a strong smoke and incense fragrance that is surprisingly never overpowering. We can honestly say, this fragrance is dope.

Now this is a Parfum extract and the largest bottle size is 30mL. With that, even 5-10mL is going to last a LONG time as you're not going to use more then one maybe two sprays. With that I'm offering two sizes, and the spaces will be limited unless we can fill multiple bottles. Rumor is that it's going to be hard to find this winter so we should get in on it now.

5mL - $45
10mL - $75

That includes glass atomizer and CONUS.

I don't need any myself, but this stuff is really unique and really good. I'd strongly recommend it.

Glad to hear from someone who's had their nose on this. Really hope we can get enough people to get this moving.


Definitely, this is an insanely good deal on this fragrance. I got a sample of .5 ml (1/2 a milliliter!) and it cost around $12 shipped.:facepalm:

Anyways, an off-the-cuff reductive description (since the luckyscent one hardly explained what it actually smelled like) from someone who's sampled it: it's a dark, woodsy, and moody scent that's nice for the colder months. I detect cloves, woods, incense, and possibly patchouli? It smells a bit sweet in a way also, but not flowery, and it isn't cloying. It's rich, but not overwhelmingly so; it's not too heavy, it's well balanced. Also, I never spotted a specific "hash" note during it's evolution, but each nose is different.

Thanks for your honest review! I can't wait to get this in and give it a smell. There is still 20mL of this left guys, anyone interested?
