Gucci Nobile

If you are a fan of vintage Polo Green, you will really dig Nobile by Gucci. The dry mossy / patchouli accord is very smooth, masculine and mature. Overall, the scent is fairly "quiet" compared to other aromatic fougere's from the 80's as the blend is exceptional.

A 30ml bottle can be found for around $100-$150 and is entirely worth every penny for this vintage discontinued gem of a fragrance.

Italian gentleman and a masterpiece

With awe of this fragrance I dare to comment.

A lucky coincidence brought me to a 5ml Mini not tilted at the flea market. At the spot price, if you consider that for 1.5ml 10 Euro and 5ml up to 20 Euro are charged on auction platforms.

The fragrance is an ancient Italian through and through with noblesse and refinement, masculine charm and elegance of the 80s. Perfumery at its best.

There are associations to aftershave right, but the fragrance is so green spicy citric balanced that it stands far above it.

I also own Guccy Envy as a mini and must say that Nobile clearly emerges as a favorite.

I also agree with the first-class comments before me. If you have the possibility to get minis or flacons at the normal price, go ahead. It will be worth it.

An absolute recommendation in the classic men's fragrance segment!

A Monster Fougere...

Nobile opens with an aromatic blend of bergamot citrus and lavender with a lime-like tarragon and rosemary herbal undertone. As Nobile enters the heart phase of its development, the early bergamot citrus recedes but the aromatic herb-laced lavender remains, coupling with a tremendous oakmoss note rising from the base joining balsam fir as co-stars with an additional rose and carnation floral supporting duo joining the lavender. In the late heart, the aromatic lavender slowly dissipates but the oakmoss and fir still remain through the dry-down now in support, as a relatively dry amber and non-smoky vetiver duo takes the fore to finish off the scent's development. Projection and longevity are both excellent, with the scent lasting 10-12 hours on skin.

Nobile is one of those rare aromatic fougere scents from the past that just can't be released today due to oakmoss restrictions. The very green herb-laced oakmoss and fir combo with floral support is absolutely captivating and dominates for most of Nobile's key development before turning to resinous amber late during the dry-down. The official note list is very long and quite frankly I am sure I missed a whole bunch of them, but Nobile just smells great, plain and simple. It unfortunately commands a price just as high as how good it smells nowadays due to its discontinuance long ago and the scarcity of remaining bottles on the after-market. That said, those looking for a reference aromatic fougere should look no further than this 4 to 4.5 star out of 5 classic by Gucci.
