These juice and Gucci nobile have the exact note breakdown.

I have several bottles of Gucci Noble, so I can directly compare. Yes, this does smell like GN upon initial spray. Maybe 90% there. HOWEVER, 20-30 minutes out and it changes. GN stays more in the medicinal/barbershop scent, whereas PVE gets a real fizzy citrus air to it. GN is what I would wear to an important business meeting, PVE is what I'd wear visiting relatives. PVE last much longer, and has value for someone looking for some old school powerhouse cologne vibes without breaking the bank.

just garbage mostly alcohol no notes -- too bad i can't return it save your money

New bottle smells like a jumbled mess of notes, sharp & thin. Hoping maturation improves it to something wearable. I’m glad I’ve always got The Duke (Duc de Vervins edp). I’m quite unimpressed but will edit this post if this changes. Edit-2/10/23, It does seem to be improving. I’ve used 4-6 sprays once every week or two. The scent is coming together & performance improving. I have never used Nobile, just a fan of the style. I can say it smells good. Edit-3/5/23, Good buy, good old school green. Needed to mature for a couple months. I’ve not had a fragrance before which changed this much so didn’t expect it. I’m glad I waited cause this is a good one. Edit 8-4-23, Can't wear it anymore since it started burning my neck. After 10 to 15 minutes I start to notice the burn & it becomes bad enough I almost have to wash it off. It's gotten a little worse each time I try to wear it. I don't know what's causing it but it's the only fragrance I own that's done this.

Bet the bloke below hasn't even tried it. Parfums Vintage fragrances are generally excellent.
