We are in the ancient Kingdom of Sicily: "the land of Vespers and oranges" (from the song I Cento Passi by the Modena City Ramblers), the scene of romantic and heroic deeds, the inspiration for novels, poems, songs and euphoric fragrances.This land, impregnated with history and different cultures, full of contradictions and ambiguities, has generated the two new fragrances by NOBILE1942."[…]Hélène, dressed as a bride, walks down the steps of the palace on the right. The young girls move towards her, offering her flowers, an then Henri."*"[…] Henri:- The breeze blows gently around me - caressing my face, And of selected perfumes - to embalm my heart. More smoothly the wave - with its sweet murmur Joins in my song - in the laughter of love. Fragrant oranges, streams and green pastures, have come to guess - am I loved?- […]"*"Hélène:- I will be yours for ever - I will always love you! […]-"**taken from ”Les vêpres siciliennes" - Act V scene II - Drama in five acts - Music by Giuseppe Verdi - Libretto by Augustin Eugène Scribe and Charles DuveyrierIts character…Silver, male, opens with an inebriating trilogy of citrus fruit, reaches a peak with aromas evoking courage, pride and deep-rooted passions, and ends with a decidedly woody harmony, a seal of strength and determination, refined with hints of amber that give the whole an enfolding - and overwhelming - sensuality.

A Signature Fragrance

oak moss
Oak moss is an extract from the lichen growing on oak trees, exuding a rich, velvety scent that's both earthy and slightly musty. This natural ingredient adds depth to perfumes, reminiscent of damp forests and moss-covered rocks, evoking a sense of nature's raw beauty.

Patchouli
Patchouli emanates from the leaves of Pogostemon cablin, a bush native to Southeast Asia. Its scent is deeply woody with hints of musty earth, warm spices, and a subtle sweetness that can be both comforting and complex. This versatile note has been a staple in perfumery for decades, often used to evoke feelings of nostalgia and grounding.

Sandalwood
Sandalwood, sourced from the heartwood of trees native to India and Indonesia, carries a rich, creamy aroma that is both smooth and slightly sweet. Its scent is often described as warm and woody, with a powdery undertone that adds depth and complexity to any composition.
