Rosa Nobile

What a beautiful rose perfume! It is absolutely gorgeous. I have been searching for the perfect rose scent for a while. I have tried a lof of perfumes from Red Roses to Lipstock Rose, from Serge Luten's roses to Diptyque Eau Rose, Stella and Paris. In my opinion none of them smelled even close to fresh living roses. There is a beautiful period house across the street from my apartment. Every summer, in the front-yard of this building there grow the most beautiful roses I have ever seen. They are large, warm, fresh, lively, flirting, inviting and colourful. Whenever I walk pass I stop and smell those beautiful roses which to me are the most precious jewels of our neighborhood. Now we are in the middle of the winter. The rose bushes are tucked away under the glittery quilt of snow. I spray my Rosa Nobile once and see and feel the delicate rose petals open up slowly and let their beautiful scent warm the cold air. I know that it is not possible to create a perfume that smells exactly like fresh roses, but Acqua Di Parma seems to have captured the beautiful spirit of a young living rose and put it in a bottle. I liked this perfume when I sampled it but to be honest I did not think I would fall in love with it. Now I have my own bottle and feel I am madly in love. Like all the lovers in all the beautiful and promising love affairs I genuinely hope ours will last forever and ever and ever.

This opens with a lot of citrus. But it’s not sharp. You get rose right off the bat it’s beautiful. Drying down you get the peony And Lily of the valley. Still all the Rose citrus coming through. In the dry down at the very bottom, you get the cedar And the rose is still going, and the citrus fades a little, and you can smell the powdery violet I think that’s why people think this smells masculine. And absolutely a man could wear it. As those are traditional, male notes, cedar violet citrus. But I’m still getting the rose and it’s a sweet rose not a masculine rose. This is so well blended that anyone could wear it. It’s so gorgeous. I don’t know why people think this is weak or A simple rose, perfume. It is certainly not. It’s one of those fragrances that you can feel what the nose was doing every step of the way and it flows. It still has that aqua di Parma DNA with the citrus. Just lovely I’m surprised by how much I like this. The middle is my favorite part citrus peony rose a little cedar. The mix of the rose and the lily of the valley gives you a little white floral vibe, but not too much if you don’t like white florals this is not that. It’s just enough. This is for a woman in her prime, confident, feminine Sophisticated.

Rosa Nobile is a pretty, realistic, fresh yet sweet rose scent, best worn in warm weather. Classic feminine elegance aside, it scores bonus points for me as it evokes childhood memories. RN is rose-dominant from initial spray, light, fresh and natural-smelling, like rosewater in perfume form. There is some citric freshness up top, complementing the rose. Bright yet well-rounded, the rose here is lovely. As it develops, the sweet orange note becomes prominent, forming an irresistible sweet accord with the increasingly jammy rose - it reminds me of a sweet treat/cake from childhood, but frustratingly I cannot put my finger on it. Nothing encourages me to buy perfume as much as such scent memories do! It becomes powdery as it develops, with some violet emerging. A nice hint of greenness is evident in the background too. It becomes musky as it dries down, with soft, warm amber-vanilla evident as it fades. Sillage and longevity are moderate. A beautiful sweet yet lightweight rose scent, this is elegant, feminine and beautifully balanced. Bonus points for the Proustian factor, but a really good spring/summer rose scent. 4.5/5.

it's hard to describe how much I love this one I am a rose lover and this is one of the most beautiful rose dominated fragrances that I ever tested here,rose is very soft,very natural and there is no sharpness here,even in the opening part..there is nothing overdone here,nothing to cover rose's natural beauty,no citrus,no woods,no green notes,no spices,no powdery notes,not even sweetness,there are all hear but the slightest amount of them this is all about a delicate,subtle rose with a hint of soft musk..I can't detect other notes and I don't want to,I just want to douse myself in this lovely pretty rose,but for sure there are other notes here,adding freshness,a touch of clean powderyness and giving unnoticable spice,taste and a delicate silky sweetness to the overall combination I can just say I loooovvve it,love,love..very lovely to wear during springs but it's also wearable in summers and falls..it stays on my skin pretty long with moderat sillage my only sadness is about my small,miniature size bottle,I don't want this gorgeous rosey dream to end,never ever this is a must try for rose lovers

If you are on the fence with this one- wear it several times in different weather. I really love this in 80 degree weather. I adore rose, and this is the queen of my rose scents. If you are looking for realistic rose with a hint of citrus supported by gorgeous jasmine and musk, look no further. This is, in my opinion, top-shelf, high quality eau de parfum. I can tell because of the way the fragrance develops- it has a gorgeous natural rose and citrus smell for the first hour, fades a bit into the other supporting flowers (jasmine, violet, peony) the second hour, and in the remaining hours you are left with the most beautiful rosey skin musk ever. While wearing this, I get a feeling of royalty and nobleness- like it could have been worn in the 1800's by the feminine royalty of that time. I should have chosen this as my wedding scent 3 years ago (instead of Bvlgari Rose Essentielle). The longevity on my skin is easily 8-10 hours.

This one is so good, I rarely buy second bottles of anything but this one always gets me. The peony version is neck and neck with this. Perfect California weather scent. I don’t know that I’ve ever worn it in true heat Because I don’t live in that type of climate, but I really enjoy it, to me it is fresh, classy, like what I smell and Santa Barbara at the Bacara. It’s interesting that somebody said that it could be masculine, maybe it is the freshness and the cleaness? Definitely not masculine to my nose, just the most classy beautiful woman scent. I just turned 40 but started wearing this about 5 years ago. I don’t think it smells mature, I think of chanel no 5 as mature but still good. Longevity is just OK but good enough for me.

This is such a pretty rose. Its like natural pink roses mixed with the sweetness of rose scented cosmetic products (not ones loaded with essential oils). It’s sweet and dewy smelling on my skin. Often, I find that simple rose fragrances can go sour like stale dried up rose petals. I get that with fragrances like The Perfumers Workshop Tea Rose and Aerin Rose De Grasse. So I’ve been trying fruitier and sweeter roses to compensate the sourness. That not what I wanted but was a way for me to handle rose in perfume. Rosa Nobile is softly sweet and slightly powdery. It smells so delicate and feminine. I honestly thought I was going to hate it and prefer Magnolia Nobile. This is my type of rose. It’s simple but I guess like simple.

So, so, so, beautiful.....This is such a delicate composition. “What perfume are you wearing? You smell like a bouquet of flowers,” says one. “You always smell so good,” says another. A woman who is allergic to fragrance actually takes a deep inhale of me, asks me for the name, and says, “I think I can wear this.” With numerous admirers, I’ve shared my Travalo refillable perfume sprayer. On various scraps of paper, I’ve written the words ‘Acqua di Parma, Rosa Nobile’ over and over again, for those who want to purchase it for themselves. I spray this in my hair, and on my clothes, arms and legs. Although sillage and longevity fall in the average range, this is fast becoming my signature.

Gorgeous pink rose that hits just the right spot between classic and contemporary, powdery and fresh. Pure joy in a bottle! Lovely for layering too -- I especially like it over original Stella to supercharge the rose. Sillage is good on me for the first half hour, then drops dramatically. Longevity is poor to average but so far the best of this style of rose I've yet found. :) Editing to add that after wearing for a week or so, I'm able to detect the lovely green/naturalistic/garden-y notes throughout this. It's really interesting -- at first it seems like a simple rose soliflore, but slowly you start to perceive the rest of the garden around the roses.

This is a perfect rose scent in my nose, it smells absolutely wonderful on my skin!! I got the rose foremost and than the peony. Is there any musk and pepper in the background?? Naaaa... I also have some other rose perfumes that I love dearly, but, they are at my large storage on the other side of the country, so, I only have this little beauty with me now. And, I love it, and, I think it is perfect for everybody! I am very allergic to some kind of perfumes, but this one I can dig my nose as deep as I can into my skin, and, I don't got any allergic reaction from it, or either the astma. It last for many hours on my skin, so it's def a solid 10/10 !!

This is an ultra feminine lovely fragrance. The rosey opening is gorgeous and I wish it maintained more of that personality in the the Drydown, where it loses much of its character. This perfume is like a soft ballerina fragrance yet really projects, probably at least an arm’s length.I just wish it had a little something in the Drydown, more of a depth or edge, that makes this not smell as generic and synthetic as it does compared to the magnificent opening. I would buy this if I could find an affordable bottle but it’s quite expensive for what it is. I much prefer this over magnolia nobile which is kind of mature and stuffy.

the happiest citrusy zingy rose. i am a rose fragrance collector with a lot of (probably too many) rose scents. and yet when i tried this one i knew i needed a full bottle immediately. it evokes sipping a citrusy drink during a stroll in a sunny rose garden. this fills the niche of "sunny rose" among my others (powdery rose, makeup rose, jammy rose, melancholy rose, synthetic powerhouse rose, among others). happy to have it as part of my collection. i see a lot of people find this similar to Kurkdjian's A La Rose, which I also have, but I like this one better frankly.

I had this as a sample, it was Full Bottle worthy by the end of the day and decided I deserved it, I love the strong but faint smell of roses. It dries down rather quickly, but lasts for a good 8 hours. I allowed my 13 year old niece a quick spray before school, she loved it and said her friends and teachers described her as smelling like a "rose garden"! Price wise it's not teen girl worthy but I liked that she said I didn't smell like a old lady (47).

Pompous, big, pink, fresh rose with peony backgroud. The flower here is full of bounce and water, the scent decidedly floral. Not too sweet. The rose is obvious, first in line, in your face ;) but natural which makes me feel comfortable. A rose scent for the ones who want to go big with it. For the ones who want to feel it all the time without anything cheap or silly in the composition. Great hot weather scent - it's refreshing like rose water mist.

I enjoy the beautiful scent, but I love many rose perfumes, and this reminds me of A La Rose MFK but better. Demachy is in my top five noses with MFK. So love their take on rose one with French and the other with Italian Roses for the houses brand. This is more classic with a warmth. Great for Summer nights for a wow factor. Also wonderful layered with Molecule 01. Not granny or old but there is a regal nature to this scent.

Wow, rose a beautiful rose! This is so beautiful! its rally very strong and peaceful, something that I feel that even if you are not a perfume lover is so realistic it just has this Rose garden vibe! Its got a green stem and beautiful fresh bloomed rose! I have never had a rose perfume like this, but it really is a (happy pleasant perfume) mood arousing of the winter! It makes you feel happy!

Dew-kissed roses in full bloom, their petals carrying a sweet, airy fragrance that lingers in the cool breeze. I love rose fragrances and this is certainly in my top 3. Longevity and projection is moderate. If I had to compare this to another rose perfume this perfume is more fresh than Jo Malone Red Roses. Both perfumes are 10/10 in terms of photorealistic rose perfumes.

Simply lovely, and just what I was looking for. I have a bar of soap from several years ago that smelled of roses and I was never able to find a rose perfume that smelled similar to it, until I got my nose on this. To me, this smells like a very traditional rose. Pretty, powdery, and realistic. Not sugary or gourmand. The longevity on this lasts 6+ hours. Recommend!

Such a DIVINE ROSE!!! Oh I swoon when I smell this! It's fabulous! A beautifully pretty rose. So rosey. So delicious. A real darling. A real rose - fresh and sparkling. Like being in a rose garden, in the middle of the day in spring, with all the lovely sweet fresh roses exuding their glorious perfumes into the air. Absolutely gorgeous!

Rosa Nobile by Acqua di Parma is a Floral Perfume with a lot of Rose and a bit Citrus and Musk Scent. It is a fragrance that is suitable for Spring and Summer the most. Since it is EDP the longevity is significant and the projection is moderate. This a superb perfume for daily usage in any occasion but not for outdoor activities.
