Baronda is the perfume of hedonistic pleasures, of throwing caution to the wind, of no longer giving a f**k. Whisky and honey are the opening act here, loosening inhibitions and smoothing the way for a long cruise through cinnamon, immortelle, vanilla and resinous amber.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Baraonda suits close, late-evening company where the air is warm, the conversation is loose and the room can hold a smoky, boozy trail without feeling crowded. It reads like a scent for someone who wants richness and a little disorder, not refinement for its own sake.
How to wear
Best in cool weather, where its whiskey, spice and amber can unfold without becoming heavy. One or two sprays are enough for a strong, lingering presence; on skin it turns warm and resinous, while in the air it leaves a smoky, boozy halo with good persistence.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like dark boozy gourmands, smoky woods and dense ambered compositions with a sensual edge. It will appeal to those who enjoy statement fragrances with texture, warmth and a slightly untamed, unconventional feel.

The nose
Alessandro Gualtieri Alessandro Gualtieri is the Italian perfumer behind Nasomatto, known for highly individual, forceful compositions that privilege texture, instinct and emotional impact over conventional polish. His work often leans into dense materials, animalic warmth, smoke, spice and abstracted realism, creating fragrances that feel immediate and uncompromising. For Baraonda, that approach becomes a boozy, resinous study in excess and sensation: whiskey, amber, cinnamon and woods are handled with the kind of intensity and clarity that has made Gualtieri one of niche perfumery’s most distinctive voices.
Nasomatto’s story
Nasomatto is an Amsterdam-based experimental house built around the idea of fragrance as personal artistic expression. Its style is deliberately bold and minimal in explanation, favouring strong character, unusual materials and scents that are meant to be felt rather than over-described.
Baraonda’s concept
Baraonda was created as a sensory translation of intoxication, lucid dreaming and raw pleasure, with the taste and smell of single malt whiskey at its core. The name means chaos or uproar in Italian, which suits its unruly, hedonistic character and its place within Nasomatto’s experimental project.
Extra info
Baraonda means chaos or uproar in Italian. It is part of Nasomatto’s project-driven line and is often discussed as one of the house’s most recognisable boozy fragrances, built around the impression of whiskey rather than a conventional sweet gourmand profile.
