Nishane Shinanay Extrait de parfum 30 ml (unisex)

Shinanay by Nishane is a unisex perfume from 2024. Belonging to the oriental-floral fragrance category, it presents a bold, artistically conceived composition filled with contrasts and unexpected ingredients. Created under the direction of perfumer Angelos Balamis, the fragrance brings together fresh citrus, decadent florals, earthy nuances and animalic depth. Far from ordinary, Shinanay is both a challenge and a pleasure for anyone seeking a truly distinctive scent signature.

The top notes open with a vivid citrus character. Resinous elemi, herbaceous and bitter galbanum, juicy blood orange and classic orange create a sharp, energetic and sparkling introduction. From the very first moments, it is clear that this is no conventional composition: Shinanay feels untamed, fresh and mysterious.

The heart unfolds with a rich floral expression. Creamy gardenia, intoxicating tuberose, magnolia and airy lily of the valley mingle with resinous mastic (lentisque) and the unusual note of cep, which lends earthy, almost woodland depth. This middle phase is unexpected, layered and full of character, evoking a quiet tension between purity and instinct.

The base is deep, dark and sensual. Civet introduces an animalic undertone that blends beautifully with balsamic opoponax, earthy moss, woody sandalwood and refined Himalayan cedar. Benzoin softens the dry-down with delicate sweetness and warmth, allowing the perfume to settle into a sensual, woody-resinous depth.

Shinanay is a fragrance for true perfume connoisseurs: distinctive, dramatic and rich in contrasts. It comes into its own in cooler weather or during evening moments, when its intricate structure can fully unfold. This is a perfume worn like a work of art, with respect and personality.
