Nishane Nanshe Extrait de Parfum 100ml is a refined floral-oriental from the Istanbul-based niche perfumery house Nishane, composed by acclaimed French perfumer Cécile Zarokian. Launched in 2020 as part of the brand's flagship Extrait de Parfum collection, it pairs a luminous bergamot, yuzu, carrot seed and cardamom opening with a watery floral heart of rose absolute, jasmine sambac, water flowers and ylang-ylang, settling on a soft, powdery base of orris, musk, patchouli and sandalwood. The fragrance is named after the Sumerian goddess of fresh water — and the composition lives up to that liquid, luminous brief.

Who it's for
Nanshe is genuinely unisex and suits anyone drawn to luminous, refined floral compositions over heavy oriental or sharp aquatic styles. It is wearable year-round, ideal for office wear, daytime occasions and casual evenings. If you wear Hermès Jour d'Hermès, Frédéric Malle Iris Poudre or Diptyque Eau Capitale, Nanshe sits comfortably alongside them with a more luminous, water-floral signature.
How to use
- Spray onto clean, moisturised skin from around 15 cm away.
- Apply to pulse points — wrists, neck, behind the ears.
- One or two sprays is plenty; the extrait de parfum concentration projects strongly and lasts.
- For a longer scent trail, mist lightly onto a silk scarf or hair.
Size: 100ml. Presented in Nishane's signature heavy-glass flacon with brushed metallic cap and minimalist Turkish-modern detailing.
