Nishane Zenne is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Jorge Lee. Zenne opens with Rhubarb, Grapefruit, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Rose, and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vanilla, and Ambergris. Nishane's Zenne carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Zenne is a polarising beast, a vibrant, fruity-sweet-tart concoction that some adore as a unique mood lifter, whilst others find it overwhelmingly artificial or even unpleasant. If you're looking for sophisticated fruit, it delivers, but beware of its potent personality.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Zenne bursts open with a striking tartness from blackcurrant and rhubarb, electrified by sharp grapefruit. This dynamic fruity start mellows into a creamy heart of Turkish rose and gardenia, underpinned by smooth sandalwood. The dry down is a warm, musky vanilla embrace, with just a hint of salty ambergris adding depth to the lingering fruitiness, creating an intriguing sweet-sour-creamy balance.
