The fragrance "Rudis" has no less a nose than the exceptional talent Antonio Alessandria, made for Nobile in 1942. It was inspired by Rudis, the wooden sword, and aims to show the values of strength and gentleness, of fight and freedom, of life and death, of masculinity and weakness in their dialectic. The fear of the gladiator on the way to the arena is described with the wine-like pomace notes and the dry fruits; the gladiator tries to build up courage, full of virility he fights his inner fears and grips Rudis a little tighter - ready to fight. Antonio Alessandria represents the wooden sword using rose and geranium and cedar wood. The scent of the leather of his armor gives him courage as he enters the arena - his presence takes up space, as do the strong notes of patchouli, vetiver and incense.
