Nishane Karagoz is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Jorge Lee. Karagoz opens with Wine Grape, Green, and Pineapple, settles into a heart of Neroli, Patchouli, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Vetiver. Nishane's Karagoz carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one is a real head-scratcher and a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect beast-mode performance but prepare for it to divide opinion faster than a politician's promise. It's bold, it's unique, and it might just smell like grape-flavoured detergent.

About

Karagoz opens with a juicy, dark blast of wine grape and sweet pineapple, immediately joined by a surprisingly prominent clean, green note. As it develops, jasmine and neroli add a touch of white floral soapiness before settling into a deep, earthy base of vetiver, patchouli, and a subtle, dark oud. Some find it a 'clean laundry' scent; others detect a more challenging, almost rubbery or medicinal undertone.
