One of very few 10/10 perfumes
An outstanding perfume in every way
The only 10/10 perfume that is suitable for all seasons
100% signature scent worthy
I find it can be a little overwhelming when it's really hot
But aside from that you will stand out in the best way whenever you wear this

Except the price.. yuck
Do not pay retail for this lmao

Our special connection... / Quick-change artist / Insider tip of the series / Is it worth the money?
Hello everyone,

today I would like to say something about Noble XXI: Art Deco - Cypress in 1, 2 words and possibly more and why I think this.

Before I get to the (") most important things, which will probably interest most people, I would like to say something about the bottle, the sprayer, the lid and the box! You can think what you want about the company (as with everyone), but you have to admit one thing - the bottles (with the lid) are an eye-catcher and as far as this point is concerned I can only give them a true (!) 10 out of 10. I really can't help anyone who gives this an 8 or lower. We are noticeably and visibly in the absolute high-end range here...

But now...

About the fragrance:

There is the phrase "quick-change artist" and I wouldn't really want to use any other synonym for it. It starts off very fresh and pleasant. You notice the bergamot, the basil, the petitgrain and already at the opening the cypress (at the beginning still in the background, but with each passing minute more and more). The opening is fresh, slightly spicy, somewhat green and subtly woody.

Then we experience a noticeable "twist", it becomes green, spicy and slightly balsamic and woody due to the cypress. And now we come to a "beloved point" for me, in itself I am a great friend of the scent of cypress (I have a special connection that goes back to my past + origin). If you use VERY high quality and natural cypress oil (like here), then you get a balsamic cooling effect and that is noticeably pronounced here.

Finally, the cypress recedes a little and woods like cedar and oak enter the scene and a dose of amber (noticeable) and in combination these notes create a timeless, high quality and very "wealthy" aspect - you'll love it - as will I!

I find the Noble XXI: Art Deco - Cypress somehow the really best of the Nobel series (of all of them, yes I also like the "Noble XXI: Art Deco - Blonde Amber | Clive Christian", but Noble XXI: Art Deco - Cypress gives me more and just that special feeling.

And how is the performance:

For me, those at an 8 - 9!
And this brings me to the point of how is it received + when do I recommend it?

I would recommend at any ride time and any occasion.
He will never annoy you, never be too potent + pushy,
rather a perfectly groomed (moneyed) gentleman...

About the price and is the fragrance worth the price....?

It's really hard for me to say "yes man" or "100% no", because yes (!) it's already a winner (and now an important point), you can already notice the fine tuning, the high-quality aspect and you can already tell that it's the same with (most!) fragrances from the house - oh come on, let's add something better/more expensive...

Many houses in the niche sector, such as MFK, work primarily on a purely synthetic basis, but here you notice a certain difference in quality!!!!

My conclusion on the subject of price, purchase and recommendation ...,
IF you find a leftover bottle, take it and, if possible, do NOT pay the new price,
then I recommend certain fragrances of the house, such as this one!
The fragrances from the house that is not one of them are usually not performance monsters,
those are characterized by a noticeable and very neat composition,
Tuning, choice of oils etc. and for me this is worth far more than a 16h
Performance with a synthetic monster = personal opinion!
Very few (unfortunately) see its true potential!

If I really wasn't convinced, I wouldn't recommend it to you!

And now have a nice day/evening, or whatever you read this review, LG the Benny
_______

(Now the same as almost always - because it's true!)

Now on the subject of luxury:

As you can see in my profile, among other things, I have really smelled many fragrances and there are fragrances where you smell a certain (partly) strong synthetic and you notice quite quickly that some fragrance houses go for quantity rather than quality and there are some where you just realize "oh come on, let's put more + better in" and you can smell this at the end of the day.

Very briefly on the subject of OVP, bottle, sprayer:

I'll make it short, I give it a 10 out of 10 in each category and I know very well that tastes are very different. So if you honestly rate this with a 7 or less... - PUH. Beautiful and very valuable lid, beautiful timeless flacon design etc. .... so I find it very difficult to rate it differently and I'm not saying this because I like a brand or not!
Now a brief word on the subject of my opinion:

I am not sponsored, influenced by anyone, receive money or anything else. I approach the subject of parfumo as I am, honestly, everything else is not mine. My real personal opinion is worth a lot to me and maybe I hope ;) that you notice that. If I don't like something, e.g. OVP, bottle, sprayer or H/S, then I communicate this!

Cypresses in the mirror of Art Deco
The Cypress as XXI. men's fragrance from the Noble series should transfer the wearer to the French Riviera in the 1920s or 1930s. An epoch of freedom and openly displayed decadence. Not yet suspecting or ignoring that the greatest disaster for the European continent is brewing. It's the social dance on a volcano.
I have to admit, I expected Art Deco to have a different fragrance. Somewhat spicy, herbaceous, perhaps even floral hints, but far from it. One could also have expected the smoky sounds of a jazz bar.

The history of the French Riviera fits, however, if you look for Art Deco not only in the metropolises of the 1920s. Here there are cypress groves, the beach promenades surrounded and terrace cafés in the seaside resorts of a distinguished society, escaped from the bourgeois skepticism.

Thanks to bergamot and petitgrain, the Cypress starts slightly fresh, slightly spicy. A wood note resonates from the very beginning.
But it's not a cypress that's too coniferous in appearance. It blends into a mixture of spices. I don't notice ginger. Muscat and clove are very present, which makes the fragrance a distinct men's fragrance. The oak note is inspired by brandy barrels from Prohibition.

But everything's coming together just fine. No note is intrusive, but the overall concept is intense.
I find the Cypress creamy, almost saturated. It's amplified at base, probably by amber.
I perceive this creaminess and intensity in many of Clive Christian's creations. Therefore dose carefully, especially because the prelude is rather restrained, but the fragrance develops anything but restrained.
After 10 hours a beautiful wood note is still perceptible close to the body.

The bottle, like all of the Noble series, has a very noble design. Elegant black, the red Roman numerals on the black bottle reinforce the value.
The Art Deco Cypress is definitely a candidate, who may complement my collection.

Shares similarities with TF Italian Cypress, but this is better in my opinion. Crazy authentic cypress opening. A bit mature, but very nice.

After an uplifting citric spicy-green opening, this bright and clean, rather dry spicy-woody Fougère, settles to a gentle earthy-woody base.
