Can't think of anything that precisely fits your particular - and oddly puzzling - dicta for me, although I did used to keep some Maria Mancini in my rotation. They seem to have a "different" flavor to them, not unpleasant or flavored, just different, with somewhat higher flavor notes. And as the nose is higher than the palate - in most folks anyway - this is perhaps the "snork" to which you refer. But this is only a guess on my part - I'm American, so not good with foreign languages.
