Nobile 1942 Pontevecchio is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2005, created by Marie Duchêne. Pontevecchio opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Incense, settles into a heart of Cedar, Rosewood, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Nobile 1942's Pontevecchio carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This woody aromatic is a divisive one - some find it a gorgeous, refined Italian scent, others find it too old-school and generic. Expect clean, fresh woody florals with a hint of incense, but be prepared for a strong personality.

About

Opens with a brisk citrus burst of bergamot and mandarin, quickly leading into a sophisticated heart where powdery iris and fresh geranium mingle with the warmth of rosewood and cedar. The dry down settles into a woody embrace of vetiver and sandalwood, softened by musk and a hint of amber, with a persistent trace of clean incense throughout.
