Nobile 1942 Chypre 1942 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Marie Duchêne. Chypre 1942 opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Styrax, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Nobile 1942's Chypre 1942 carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Divisive and misnamed, this is less a chypre and more a warm, powdery floral with a honeyed sweetness. Some find it beautiful and sophisticated, others find it too cloying or not at all what they expected.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Opening with a gentle burst of bergamot and orange blossom, Chypre 1942 quickly settles into a rich, powdery floral heart dominated by opulent tuberose and a smooth rose. As it evolves, a warm, almost honeyed sweetness emerges, underpinned by creamy sandalwood, tonka bean, and a soft, lingering vanilla. The patchouli is subtle, blending into a comforting, ambered drydown.
