Dance of the Masks - Captured in Fragrance

The colorful festivities of Carnival in Venice take place not only in Piazza San Marco and on the Canal Grande; for the initiated/invited, it almost becomes a "palazzo-hopping"!
Classic mask and gala robe wearers meet again and again, strolling from palazzo to palazzo, from invitation to invitation, and in between, they gather at the famous "Cafe Florian" for an espresso, a refreshment, and a chat:
All of Venice is in motion - on land and water: The gondoliers are in high demand!

Some also need a little break, as the night is long, and breakfast invitations often conclude the festivities; here too, "Chypre 1942" from "Nobile 1942" is a place of olfactory beauty, surely found in many a palazzo or private room.

Elegance, nobility, and the magic of the city of Venice unite in this fragrance, a Chypre of the more flattering, elegant kind, whose ability to transform over time on the skin should not be underestimated.
The rather gentle opening of bergamot and mandarin aromas, accompanied by the fragrant delicacy of orange blossoms, delights the senses like a cheerful embrace that touches deeply in its own unique way and awakens first longings and dreams.
Elegant yet subtly erotic, the heart note reveals itself: Wonderful rose scents, cascades of white, large-blooming jasmine, and skillfully dosed tuberose fragrance pleasure are enticingly stretched out on a smoky bed of benzoin resin: How beautifully they can unfold in its smoke and envelop the heated bodies of the dancers and promenaders.
The animalic notes of sandalwood reveal themselves through the warmth of now damp skin; such a night is not without its challenges, and the costumes are heavy, good food, alcohol, and temptations of all kinds in the air not only ignite the imagination!
Warm, creamy vanilla, enhanced by tonka bean, follows, marrying delightfully with this creamy sandalwood - the senses, which had just been gently swaying, are awakened once again: Oakmoss also scratches at them, not gently, but still stylishly.
Here, the temptation of the senses is neither loud nor ordinary: No, "Chypre 1942" knows the game of masks and the language of fans very well!
Sillage and longevity are designed for this "mask magic," and thus this fragrance delights in a multifaceted way, even if not throughout an entire night.

Of all the different perfume brands, we all have our personal favorites, and for me, "Nobile 1942" definitely belongs to that list.
I appreciate this careful craftsmanship that allowed Umberto Nobile 1942 to establish his company in the midst of war.
From precious essences, elegant fragrances are still created that embody a stylish lightness and ultimately the personality of this city.

I have had the pleasure of getting to know four of these fragrances; I have already described three of them here with enjoyment.
Perhaps there will be an opportunity to test more fragrances from this brand that I find so appealing.
Everything has its time - non temere! Venezia/"Nobile 1942," I will remain loyal to you and enjoy in the meantime the remaining sample of this alluring and yet flattering Chypre fragrance.
At the latest during the next "Carnevale di Venezia," when the masks and dreams dance through the nights once again, we will meet!
I promise!
My mask is already ready!

Nachdem ich Deine Rezension gelesen und mir meine beiden alten venezianischen Masken angeschaut habe, überkommt mich plötzlich eine wahnsinnige Sehnsucht nach Venedig.

So schöne Beschreibung als Masken-Zauber - mich hat er nicht ganz so verzaubert.
