NishaneB-6124.192 ratingsFougères have never been a profile I've particularly enjoyed on my own skin, but there are exceptions to every rule. All the classic components are here: fresh lavender, rich oakmoss, a touch tonka sweetness, but with the addition of cashmeran and sandalwood, a well-trodden profile has been rearranged into something altogether unique.

This sounds gorgeous! Would you say it’s unisex?

For the first few hours, not really. It wouldn't be alarming smelling it on a woman’s skin, but it has a quintessentially masculine profile and almost no sweetness. Once the aromatics fade and the oakmoss retreats, we're left with something clean, airy and ever so subtely creamy, in a metallic sort of way! It has a more unisex lean at this point, but I still inagine it best on male skin.

I love this one personally and don't think it gets enough credit in the fougere world
OliveEyes@oliveeyes94
It certainly seems quite overlooked!

I haven’t tried this yet but it’s on my list! Along with about 7-8 others from Nishane. Such a great house.
OliveEyes@oliveeyes94
Awesome house! I've tried a bunch of them and B-612 and Ani are my top 2. Fan Your Flames, Wulong Cha, Sultan Vetiver, Ambra Calabria, Nefs and Paplefiko are great too.

Finally someone else mentions Papilefiko, it’s fantastic! Unfortunately it’s redundant to other fragrances I love in my collection but once they’re empty I may replace once with that. Ambra Calabria is next on my sample list. I have it in the cart now!

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. It's not the most unique, but a gorgeous cardamom nonetheless. Ambra Calabria is a really interesting one - changes a lot from opening to drydown. Made me feel like an elegant gentleman driving a convertible around the Italian countryside.

We've chatted a little about perfume, but I'm still not sure where her tastes lie - or, more importantly, what she really doesn't enjoy smelling. To me, B-621 has a timeless masculine freshness

B-612 gets sprayed when I don't know what to wear. That's not to say it's somehow inferior, but quite the opposite. Its fresh, mossy, aromatic tranquility is something I always feel comfortable

Set the office AC to 66 (18.8C) and sitting right under the vent, @curlyhen had me jonesing to wear something more autumnal. I’ll create my own fall since I don’t really get one. This is a decent

Some times I just need to hit the reset button on my nose. When I do i usually reach for a fougère. For some reason the sharpness just does something to reinvigorate me. Love the Barbershop feel of

In a hurry this morning. Grabbed one that has become an easy reach for me
