Duro Nasomatto 2007 Extrait de Parfum

The last comment on Duro strangely enough dates back quite a while. That's funny.
P.S. I'll dedicate my second commi to him on this great platform.

The days are getting shorter and shorter, the temperatures are gradually adapting and nature is working to the full to be prepared for the really cold times. The dew spreads early in the morning.

And I got in the mood for something new and woody!

I am a city child, born and raised in a medium-sized German city. But of course I was also often on the outskirts of the city and in wooded/rural areas on the way... For me Duro smells like a damp forest in autumn, working with lots of fresh and damp moss on cold stones. Very powerful. But not just like that. It is very linear in its scent, but this moist and powerful moss (subjective sensation) is felt to wear off a bit over time and a very light sweetness is added to the well-balanced wood and the spicy chord. Cold leather flashes through too? I can't smell anything more specific at the moment... but I really like it so far.

I tested Duro three times before I finally decided to buy it. The second time I tested the TF Oud Wood at the same time, which I liked very much, but after 7-8h I hardly smelled a difference... But just in the first hours the power Nasomatto flashed and pulled me into its ban so that I knew I like it very much and the opportunities to wear it I could imagine well.
Now he moved into my collection last Saturday! Freu*

Nowadays you can get it online for less than 100€, which is a very good deal if you like it. Since I did my three tests in a very good offline perfumery... I bought it there, too, for the full retail price. Everything else I could not have made out with my conscience... it was even the last Duro in this perfumery.

He accompanies you for a very long time, with me it is 10-12h (4-spray neck). I find the Sillage very pleasant. In the first 7-8h one is well perceptible on one to two meters, but without being negatively intrusive. Then he goes back from hour to hour.

I'd say it's a scent for people who are stuck in life, who know what they want.
It's not a party scent. Nevertheless I think you can wear it well groomed in the evening at a quiet bar. It can also be worn in the afternoon for shopping or similar purposes, but you should not be dressed too casually with it... the fragrance requires a very expressive wearer, so that its validity comes out well.

Duro gives you the extra portion of Focus. Not because he is exhausting, but because he is so potent and can be easily associated with joie de vivre.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to wearing Duro occasionally in autumn/winter!
