Product Description

Nobile 1942 Casta Diva 

Olfactive Family: FLORAL
The inspiration for the name came from La Norma by Vincenzo Bellini and the most famous interpretation of this “song to the moon” by Maria Callas. Just like Norma’s voice, Castadiva starts almost whispering but then explodes in blooming heart notes of frangipani. Exuberant and sparkling but misterious at the same time. Energising, rejuvenating and magnetic, wearing this perfume will turn a woman into a real star: whether it's a party, a cocktail, or a special occasion, a heavenly aura of romantic charm and the fragrance of Osmanthus will pervade the imagination and the senses of those around her. 

 "Dabbing a hint of Castadiva, by the Italian niche company Nobile 1942, onto the back of my wrist, he explains how the scent was inspired not just by Bellini’s classic aria Castadiva (from the opera Norma), but by the on-stage requirements of opera singers, who have long been banned from wearing perfume during performances because of the effect it might have on the voices of the entire cast. Castadiva’s delicate accords of frangipani, Egyptian jasmine and white musk are designed to unfold gradually, so that not a hint of fragrance would be diffused during a performance—but by the time a diva arrived back in her dressing room to greet her admirers, her scent would be in full flow"

    Absolutely stunning!!!

    I absolutely love this fragrance and it layers very well with Casamorati Lira, in my opinion. It’s a very classy scent and is absolutely delicious, as well. I can’t stop smelling it because it smells so good.

    New signature scent

    A new love. It's bold, warm, carnal and rich. It's dries sweet on my skin and lasts forever my clothes. I see this as a scent to wear for nights out but I love it so much I also wear it in the office.

    New signature scent

    I love perfumes but I'm not a big collector as I'm very picky with scents. I actually loathe perfume shopping and give up easily which is why I only have 3 other perfumes in my collection, two of which I like but don't love and rarely wear. My first big purchase was BR540 extrait. It was love at first sniff and it's been my signature scent for the past 6 years...I still love it and others absolutely adore it on me but now that it's been cloned to oblivion it was time for a change.

    Over the past few months I've been sampling popular niche fragrances and nothing has given me the same feeling. I recently learned of Guidance's popularity and was curious about the extrait version so I made my way up to Niche Essence during their Black Friday sale to give it a try. I got my nose on Guidance and immediately I knew it wasn't for me...it didn't smell the way others have described it and I hate to say it, but it was funky to my nose. Then I tried Guidance 46 and was intrigued by the scent. Definitely unique and unlike anything I've ever smelled before. It's very hard to describe the notes because there isn't one note that stands out to me. I agree with reviews that it's a very well-blended perfume. Admittedly, this wasn't a love at first sniff for me and I left the store thinking it wasn't for me. It remained on my mind and so I went back and sprayed it on my wrist and left the store again. Still, not an immediate love but there was something about it that compelled me to go back in…
