Nishane Shem

Mostly cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on turkish rose, geranium and cardamom, moves through cypriol oil or nagarmotha, osmanthus and amber, and settles on leather, vetiver and elemi.

• rose: the flower itself, landing anywhere between jammy and fresh green depending on the variety used
• geranium: green rosy leaf, sharper and more minty than rose itself

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
