Nishane Suede Et Safran

Mostly soft skin-like warmth, more the smell of clean skin than a scent of its own. Underneath that, like a new leather jacket, smoky with a bitter edge.

It opens on saffron and ambrette, moves through suede and ginger, and settles on musk and leather.

• saffron: warm leathery spice, dry with a faint medicinal bite
• suede: soft dry leather, powdery rather than smoky

It lasts well and carries into a room.

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