Petali e Spade

EN Petali e Spade" by Nobile 1942 is a wonderful representation of a unisex aldehydic fragrance with a floral hint that pleasantly surprised me. The airy and clean beginning of the aldehydes blends with the freshness of white peach, creating a tempting combination. The floral heart is characterized by osmanthus, jasmine, and magnolia, giving a sweet and delicate touch. In the base, the creamy sandalwood and vanilla add warmth and softness. Despite some conflicting reviews, this fragrance is perfect for me: fresh, slightly fruity, even a bit sweet, but without the intrusive vanilla, and suitable for both a female and male (but not for every male) audience. A way to try the floral hint of the fragrance even for those who usually avoid it." IT "Petali e Spade" di Nobile 1942 è una meravigliosa rappresentazione di una fragranza aldeidica unisex con un accenno floreale che mi ha piacevolmente sorpreso. L'inizio arioso e pulito degli aldeidi si fonde con la freschezza della pesca bianca, creando una combinazione allettante. Il cuore floreale è caratterizzato da osmanto, gelsomino e magnolia, dando un tocco dolce e delicato. Nella base, il sandalo cremoso e la vaniglia aggiungono calore e morbidezza. Nonostante alcune recensioni contrastanti, per me questa fragranza è perfetta: fresca, leggermente fruttata, addirittura un po' dolce, ma senza l'intrusiva vaniglia, e adatta sia a un pubblico femminile che maschile (ma non per tutti gli uomini). Un modo per provare l'accenno floreale della fragranza anche per chi solitamente lo evita.

Nobile 1942 Petali e Spade Extrait de Parfum is a kaleidoscopic fruity / musky unisex fragrance. draws inspiration from Xiao Mei: enigmatic, courageous and elegant blind, magical and hypnotic dancer from the film "The Forest of Flying Daggers". A fragrance which in its powerful uniqueness represents that powerful fragility that defines the olfactory essence of a woman. A fragrance that is a solemn triumph of fruity peach notes immersed in white and fleshy floral notes of magnolia and jasmine, with the reassuring evolution of white musk and warm amber notes. One of a kind fragrance, which you will love infinitely.

Very pleasant on me. After trying a sample I am going to get a full bottle.

Such a bizarre and complex smelling perfume – not really what I expected, it's almost at the corner of off-putting but it saves itself. Not bad, just very weird. It's got this extremely strong metallic smell that almost dips into star anise to my nose (which isn't pleasant for me but thankfully it ends before it goes full anise). Then you get these sort of side whiff of wonderful florals and tea, but it gets kind of weighed down by all of the heavy myrrh and musk. It reminds me faintly of male sweat, or like athletic sweat of any gender. So if I had to sum this one up, it would be an ancient female warrior with a long sword, who has been training and sweating in the sun, but covers herself in floral perfume to try and mask the smell. It's a strong, sly and practical scent. A more athletic or butch lady could rock this so hard – I could see it being super sexy on a woman with muscles.

On me this is a mixture of freshess and fecal animalic notes that fade away into BR540-like ambroxan with coconut water.
