Nanshe

by Cécile Zarokian

Nishane Nanshe is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Cécile Zarokian. The fragrance opens with Carrot Seeds, Cardamom, Bergamot, and Yuzu, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Floral, and dries down to a base of Orris, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Musk.

Our verdict on Nanshe: Acquired

Nanshe is a love-it-or-hate-it powder bomb that promises sophistication but occasionally delivers 'old lady' or even 'sweaty ass and damp socks'. It's unique, for sure, but definitely not a safe blind buy.

Its potent performance and distinctive powdery-floral character make it a bold choice. While some find it office-appropriate, others might consider it too intense. It shines brightest where elegance is welcome, rather than casual or sporty settings.

About

Nanshe opens with an intriguing, almost savoury blend of carrot seeds and cardamom, brightened by zesty yuzu and bergamot. This gives way to a powdery floral heart where rose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang intertwine with a surprising watery melon note. The dry down is a creamy, musky affair, rich with orris, patchouli, and sandalwood, providing a deep, lingering finish.
