PROFUMI IL SESSO – Gender Fluid Fragrances by Naso Profumi

Breaking stereotypes and expanding the boundaries of fragrances to be more gender fluid to supersede gender biases, Naso Profumi has launched Profumi Il Sesso, gender fluid perfume. With no definable gender characteristics in the collection, Naso Profumi encourages one to celebrate personal memories, intimacy and individuality via scent. These are blends that are new and yet so familiar, nostalgic and mysterious at the same time, invigorating albeit in a calming way and unapologetically sexy but in such a subtle way that you cannot put your finger on it.

Pepper infused in Wood: Maintaining the strong base of Oud Regia; Oud Santal and Rich Extracts Of Cedar Wood and Mahogany that masculinise the base note here and strengthens the blend. Black pepper further adds the zinc to the sultry Cedar, making it romantic; ecstatic and irresistible. The feminine and the masculine form a synergy to produce this Gender Fluid Blend which is appropriate for all the sexes.

Musk Saffron Amber: The rich base of Indian Saffron does the magic here by strategically mixing with Yellow musk and Oud Santal to provide everlasting support to the blend in the aura that lingers. Amber Rose and Cedar add the goof here, they play with the top note to balance this blend and Romanticise it. The first whiff has a surprise element that reminds you of Ruh Gulab in the subtlest way aligning with the strong heart and base of the blend making it appropriate to suit both the man and the woman.

Heart notes: natural saffron attar

Tabac: The classic whiff of tobacco; the burnt whiskey cigar, sits as the base of this blend, making it smell very familiar. The tonka bean and coffee juxtapose the Attar Mitti, which has already strengthened the blend at its base. The Ruh Gulab and hints of Attar Motia, make this blend dreamy but can never classify as a light one. Fit to play with the feminine, this resonates with the classic boy smell. The power play between tobacco and rose is the beauty of Tabac.
