The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Karagoz by Nishane was launched in 2017 and crafted by perfumer Jorge Lee. This aromatic fruity fragrance opens with the juicy freshness of grapes and pineapple, creating a vibrant, almost tropical feel. The heart adds herbal notes and neroli for an unexpected contrast that brings a green, zesty edge to the sweetness. As it settles, patchouli, jasmine, vetiver, agarwood (oud), and amber weave together into a rich blend of earthy warmth and woody depth.

How to wear it

One or two sprays is sufficient to capture its initial fruity burst. Allow it time to settle; the base notes develop slowly but steadily, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want an evolving scent that transitions gracefully.
