The story behind the bottle.
Nefs by Nishane was launched in 2019 and crafted by perfumer Chris Maurice. This fragrance is a warm and spicy oriental vanilla creation that opens with the sweet and complex notes of honey and saffron, before transitioning into a heart of violet, sage, and osmanthus. The base layers of oud, whiskey, leather, and amber create an earthy depth that grounds the composition in rich, enveloping warmth. Nefs is unisex and captures the essence of a luxurious yet intimate experience.
Apply Nefs lightly as it projects well from the skin. The honey and saffron notes fade within two hours, but the base of oud and leather continues to develop throughout the day. Best worn in cooler evenings or indoors where its warmth can fully envelop.
