The audacity of Dutch herbs (aka cannabis), along with notes of hand-squeezed grapefruit, Calabrian bergamot, and mandarin. Matching sass with class are mimosa and pink pepper. Big, confident and up for fun.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the scent of someone arriving early and taking up space without raising their voice: crisp citrus, green herbs and a faintly edgy herbal bite that reads polished rather than polite. It suits close social settings where freshness needs to feel deliberate and a little audacious.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, where the citrus and herbs can stay bright without turning sharp. Apply lightly at first; the extrait strength gives strong diffusion and lasting power, so one to three sprays is usually enough for a clean, energetic trail that lingers on skin.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like citrus with attitude: aromatic, green and slightly unconventional, with a fresh profile that still feels substantial. It will appeal to people who enjoy modern niche scents, strong projection and a clean-but-edgy signature.

The nose
Valerie Garnuch-Mentzel and Ilias Ermenidis. Garnuch-Mentzel is known for polished, modern compositions with clear structure and a refined sense of texture, while Ermenidis brings a strong instinct for luminous, expressive fragrance architecture. Together, they shape NoCologne into a citrus aromatic extrait that keeps its brightness while carrying the density and persistence of a high-concentration formula.
Collaborators
Bram Niessink, Fugazzi’s founder, appears to have been closely involved in the creative development, iterating through multiple versions to preserve a fresh cologne feel at extrait strength and steering the concept toward a louder, longer-lasting citrus signature.
Fugazzi’s story
Fugazzi builds its identity around playful luxury: bold names, provocative energy and extrait-level concentration, balanced with a clean, modern finish. The house likes fragrance to feel instinctive and story-driven, with compositions that are designed to project personality as much as scent.
Nocologne’s concept
NoCologne was launched as Fugazzi’s answer to the classic cologne idea, but amplified into an extrait with serious staying power. The concept centers on a bright, handsqueezed citrus opening and Dutch herbal edge, with the founder reportedly pushing through many trials to keep the top notes vivid despite the high oil concentration.
Extra info
NoCologne is an extrait de parfum at 30% perfume oil, which is unusually high for a fragrance framed as a cologne. The name plays on the idea of cologne while deliberately overturning its lighter, more fleeting reputation.
