by Lucas Sieuzac

Nishane Shem is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Lucas Sieuzac. The fragrance opens with Cardamom, Rose, and Geranium, settles into a heart of Amber, Osmanthus, and Cypriol Oil Or Nagarmotha, and dries down to a base of Leather, Vetiver, and Elemi.

Our verdict on Shem: Acquired

This is a bold, divisive beast. Shem demands attention with its unique, challenging blend of leathery rose and earthy notes. Not for everyone, but those who 'get' it absolutely adore its powerful, sophisticated aura.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Shem's beast-mode performance and strong, oriental leather-rose profile make it completely unsuitable for the office or casual day wear. However, its luxurious, unique aroma is perfect for making a statement on a sophisticated date night or formal event, where its intensity can be appreciated.

About

Shem opens with a fascinating, almost minty blast of green rose, underpinned by a sharp, aromatic cardamom and green geranium. The heart descends into a rich, dark swirl of earthy cypriol and a subtle amber sweetness, before settling into a deep, commanding base of rugged leather and dry vetiver with a balsamic touch of elemi. It’s a textured, complex journey from sparkling green to brooding leather.
