Nishane

Nishane, Istanbul's first niche house, was founded in 2012 and takes its name from the Ottoman word for a mark or sign. The brand works exclusively in extrait de parfum — high concentrations, slow drydowns, materials chosen for endurance in heat — and composes at the meeting point of Ottoman court perfumery and contemporary European craft. Hacivat, its mossy pineapple chypre named for the wit of Turkish shadow theatre, carried the house from Istanbul to the world stage.
