傳統面相學說一生命運好壞全看鼻子，近期以色列科學家也提出類似的研究，他們整理出14種不同鼻型，並進一步歸納出各種鼻子所代表的性格及個人特質。舉例來說，英國王妃凱特的「直刃鼻」最迷人，是藝術家眼裡「美的象徵」。
以色列古里昂大學(Ben-Gurion University)拍攝1300位歐洲及以色列民眾的照片，將他們的鼻子與藝術作品中的人物作比對，區分出14種鼻型；研究計畫主持人塔米爾教授(Abraham Tamir)說，這是學術史上首次出現對人類鼻子的分析。
研究中指出，英超曼聯球星魯尼雖然長相不算出色，但他擁有最具魅力的「獅鼻」，也就是鼻梁凹陷、鼻孔平扁的短鼻子，然而有一好沒兩好，這種鼻子通
常也代表著不成熟。而在男性臉上很常見的「肉鼻」，約占25%，則有著慷慨、情感豐富、樂於助人的好人性格；可惜「肉鼻」與「肥鷹勾」，都是比較缺乏吸引
力的鼻型。

此外，還有像湯姆克魯斯壯碩的「羅馬鼻」，意味富有企圖心及膽識；高挺的「希臘鼻」則堪稱是模特兒的專屬鼻型；至於劉德華的「削瘦鷹勾鼻」，是謀略及商業頭腦的象徵。
其他還有俏皮討喜的「朝天鼻」、鼻頭突出的「尖鼻」、寬鼻頭大鼻孔的「列寧鼻」、鼻頭飽滿有肉的「球狀鼻」、鼻孔小的「小孔鼻」、稀有的「長鼻」、「凹凸鼻」等。
There are 14 types... but which one is yours? Scientist's study classifies different shapes of noses

It is not often that he tops polls for his looks.
But Wayne Rooney has one of the most attractive noses in the country, according to researchers.
The Manchester United star’s nose – or rather its snub shape – has been deemed among the most appealing by an academic who has completed what he claims is the first survey of its type to classify and record the different shapes of the human nose.
The snub: Wayne Rooney scores well with his ‘attractive’ nose
The Duchess: Kate’s straight-edged shape is a favourite with artists
Before Rooney lets the compliment go to his head, however, he should know that those with snub noses are often viewed as lacking in maturity, warns the researcher.
Professor Abraham Tamir toured shopping centres in Europe and Israel, taking candid photographs of people with interesting noses. He then sorted the 1,300 pictures and matched each with a face on a painting or other piece of art.
This revealed there to be 14 types of nose, with classifications ranging from ‘fleshy’ to ‘celestial’.
The most common, particularly among men, was the fleshy nose, best illustrated by Prince Philip, which featured on almost a quarter of all the faces studied.
Writing in the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, Professor Tamir says those with such a nose are likely to be generous, emotional, helpful and sensitive.
The fleshy: As seen on Prince Philip, the most common nose
The hawk: Barbra Streisand's sharp profile is 'unattractive'
The Mirren: Queen actress Helen's is thin and pointed
The Greek: Fabregas's classic shape is often found on models
The aquiline: Daniel Radcliffe's nose symbolises a cool tactician
The Roman: With a sloping tip, Tom Cruise’s shows ambition
But it is not all good news. In the professor’s opinion, both the ‘fleshy’ and the ‘hawk’ – such as Barbra Streisand’s – are among the least attractive.
The Roman nose, seen on actor Tom Cruise, was sported by almost 9 per cent, who were ambitious, courageous and clear-thinking.
Another classic, the Greek, as borne by Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas, were found on just 3 per cent.
Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe joins the 9 per cent who sported an aquiline nose, said to symbolise a cool tactician with a business mind.
The Rumpole: One in 200 have a bulbous beak like Leo McKern
The Celestial: Carey Mulligan’s turned-up shape is a beauty
Some 13 per cent had celestial noses, with celebrity examples including actress Carey Mulligan.
These, the professor believes, are most attractive along with the snub noses found on 5 per cent, and seen on Wayne Rooney. But while the snub shape may be attractive, it is not necessary a blessing.
Professor Tamir, of Ben-Gurion University in Israel, said: ‘The snub nose is a small nose sloping upwards at the tip. People with this frequently lack spiritual and physical maturity.’
The Lenin: Broad with large nostrils, found on one in 25
The Redknapp: Just one in 50 have a nose like Spurs boss Harry
The Nixon: A rarity, fewer than one in 100 had a presidential proboscis
The Tara: Just one of 1,300 studied had a nose like Palmer-Tomkinson
Kate Middleton, however, can also claim an attractive nose. Her shape was frequently found in paintings, suggesting artists saw it as a thing of beauty.
Simon Withey, of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, said the results would have been different had the survey been done in another part of the world.
‘Women like a nose like Angelina Jolie’s – a very delicate nose with not a lot of bulk,’ he said.
‘Men like straighter noses. In general people don’t like fleshy tips or excessive bumps.’
