by V Canto
Mastin by V Canto is a powerful, woody-spicy fragrance with a bold and dense character, heavily centered on oud, saffron, and warm amber accords. It opens with a sharp, animalic, and slightly artificial note—often described as resembling bug spray or a heavy nylon bag—before settling into a complex, resinous, and deeply woody drydown. It's most effective in cooler weather, particularly during autumn and winter, and delivers exceptional longevity, with many users reporting it lasting nearly a full day. The sillage is strong, often described as massive, making it ideal for nighttime wear and personal statement. Despite its intensity, it evolves gracefully, revealing layers of rose, ambergris, musk, and white floral nuances over time. It suits those who appreciate strong, assertive scents and prefer perfumes with a masculine, confrontational character.
