Castelli Di Sabbia

Castelli Di Sabbia from Nobile 1942, composed by Christian Carbonnel in 2020, is a warm, spicy fragrance with a sweet date note and a woody base. Spice is the dominant impression for everyone who describes it, about half also find it woody, and a minority notice sweetness and musk.

Black pepper and cardamom give it a sharp yet aromatic start, and cinnamon adds a sweet, warming spice. The name, sandcastles, suggests desert warmth, and dates bring exactly that: a sticky, caramel-like, rich fruitiness. As it settles, cedar gives a dry, pencil-like woodiness, vetiver a grassy, smoky note, and cypriol an earthy, slightly smoky root tone. Vanilla rounds the edges with a soft sweetness, and musk adds a clean, close finish.

Unisex in spirit, it suits people who like cosy, spiced fragrances with a hint of sweetness. The cinnamon, dates and woods point to autumn and winter, evenings and relaxed social occasions. Those who enjoy spiced oriental woods with a gourmand fruit accent should find it a comfortable choice.
