Smelling the picks
Nishane Wulóng Chá (Extrait de Parfum, 2015) feels like bright citrus tea with a whisper of spiced fig, starting with bergamot and mandarin orange before Mediterranean fig and musk take over. Imagine creamy vanilla cake with a dusting of warm spices and cedar smoke when you spray Nishane Ani (Extrait de Parfum, 2019), opening on bergamot and blue ginger and drying down to vanilla, benzoin and ambergris. Nishane Hacivat (Extrait de Parfum, 2017) comes off as citrus-bright woody forest with earthy moss underfoot; pineapple and grapefruit up top and oakmoss and dry woods underneath.
