Why is it feminine?

Narices is feminine because it descends from Latin "naris" (nostril), which was a feminine noun in the third declension. Spanish inherited this feminine gender from Latin, as gender assignments in Romance languages are largely preserved from their Latin ancestors. The Latin feminine ending and gender class were maintained through the phonetic evolution to modern Spanish "nariz".
