    Novell has been around a while . I wore it as a young woman thirty years ago. Having said that , Norell, is a sophisticated scent that is spicy , not intense, and and has a very expensive smell ....

    There seems to some confusion about this fragrance. Which bottles are the original 1969's formula bottles and which are the newest Five Star bottles. Unfortunately, you can't go by the advice given...

    First off I purchased a new bottle of this and was disappointed with the staying power so I picked up an older bottle on ebay. The older formulation is *so* much better and wears all day on me. ...

    I'm really enjoying this scent. I got a bottle with the letters running vertically of the eau de cologne but the bottom sticker still says Five Star, so I don't really know which formulation I...

    Nice solid square bottle and great price. This review is for the pre-reformulated version, not sure if it's been reformulated since. At first spray, it's a strong aldehyde powder green scent, a...

    I suspect I sampled the new formulation - I don't know if the lettering was vertical or horizontal but it was at a retail store and the bottle looked quite new... Anyhow, the opening phase of...

    A true classic, instantly recognizable. The quintessential soapy, bright "green floral"-- if you like Ivoire or Chanel No 19 or Charlie, you might like Norell. It has real presence, and has a...

    Lovely vintage-style perfume. It starts with that slightly metallic edge aldehydes impart to fragrances, with floral notes and an unobtrusive base. It falls into my 'tea party' fragrance category:...

    As someone responded to my post on the fragrance board, this brings to mind mink coats and diamonds. Add a limo and a night out on Broadway. This is ***class***. I only tried the vintage Norell,...

    It's amazing that there are reviews of this fragrance...I thought people essentially forgot about this! Norell always reminds me of growing up in the 70's. This was my mom's fragrance for...

    This has been my HG, signature fragrance for decades. I know, I know, never admit your age, but I began wearing this when it came out. I've had people stop me in stores, elevators, at work, and...

    Norell is a very dry green classic. It has galbanum on the top, carnation, rose, jasmine, with musk, iris and sandalwood in the base. The floral notes dominate on me and I can perceive the...

    I wore Norell in high school, in the '70s, and loved it's sophistication. Recently I purchased a small bottle from one of the online discounters. The bottle and box were definitely older, and the...

    I have to agree, there is a big difference between the "vintage" Norell from the 70ies and the new version by Five Star Fragrance. The scent is completely different! My rating is for the new...

    As another reviewer opined, it is difficult to believe that this complex, slightly spicy fragrance was introduced in the 60s (most sources say 1968). It has a 40s - 50s vintage air to it, and I...

    I wish I loved this because I see it often enough. But it is one of a group of perfumes whose commonality I haven't yet distinguished that go painfully sharp on me. Hairspray is one aspect of the...
