If it's red, dark black, with yellow discharge and pain, it's infected. If you don't get on a course of antibiotics right away, it could lead to blood poisoning and death. Infections are nothing to mess around with - these days we don't tend to consider them as health risks, but less than a 100 years ago they were fatal in most cases.

If it's scabbed over, with no yellow discharge, pain or fever, and a bit red, then that's not unusual for a healing cut.

Infections are pretty obvious = the pain will increase until the blood is poisoned, and if not attended to the surrounding tissue may also become gangrenous. Pain, fever and yellow discharge from the cut wound are the 3 main indicators of an infection.

If your cat has a cut on its nose, you should clean the wound with a mild antiseptic solution and apply a small amount of antibiotic ointment. Monitor the cut for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, or discharge. If the cut is deep or does not heal, it is best to consult a veterinarian for further treatment.
