Creamy Floral Punch
I don't generally venture into reviewing feminine perfumes, but I said I might give my thoughts on Hundred Silent Ways Extrait de Parfum anyways, as even though it is clearly feminine, I don't think it is much more feminine than the unisex-labeled Tuberóza Extrait de Parfum, which I have already reviewed.
In contrast to that one, however, which put most of its focus on the white floral notes and left the rest behind closed doors, Hundred Silent Ways Extrait de Parfum adds a pleasant peach fruitiness and a creamy-sweet base. The mandarin orange opens things up with a juicy-sweet tone, hardly citrusy. The peach soon joins in with its unmistakable velvety, fuzzy fruitiness, whilst being accompanied by rich tuberose sweetness. Just the peach and tuberose from the opening give the fragrance a clear feminine direction.
And the continuance at the heart just reinforces that, with jasmine and gardenia driving the scent to a white floral sweetness, without necessarily overpowering the peach, arguably the signature note of the blend. There is some orris present as well, although not much or any powderiness, really. Just a more distinct floral touch, which is easily overpowered by its peers.
At the base, things turn from creamy-floral to sandalwood and vanilla-creamy. Surely, the floral vibe carries the whole scent across the entire wearing, with the peach from the opening holding up very well, quite a few hours into my testing. But the vanilla smoothness, paired with the slightly warm, soft, and creamy sandalwood at the base definitely don't go unnoticed. The vetiver does, however, of which I barely got any.
I admit that performance surprised me here. Most Nishanes I have tested so far proved to be rather short-lasting on my skin. But Hundred Silent Ways Extrait de Parfum took a solid 8-9 hours before fading completely. Interesting how the feminine scent did better in terms of longevity than the other unisex/more masculine-leaning fumes. As for projection, it was okay, with about 2 feet of projection at most for the first hour, after which it would settle to a one foot bubble around me. The sillage was a little better than I expected, however.
In terms of versatility, I find Hundred Silent Ways Extrait de Parfum rather fitting for many occasions, all from leisure wear to the Met Gala. The only roadblock I could see stopping you from wearing this as a daily or at work is the spicy price tag.
Well, for me the only roadblock I obviously encounter is the clear feminine scent. And for me to wear this, I can't give it more than a 7/10 in terms of scent. It clearly doesn't fit. But on a woman, things would change. I would easily see myself giving this an 8.5/10 or even a 9/10 if I smelt it on a woman, probably just the same way I would give Tuberóza Extrait de Parfum an 8/10 on a woman, but a 6.5/10 on me - that one just seems to lean a little bit too feminine to be categorized as unisex. But that's just me.
So honestly, is this worth the price? It's still no pocket money, and I'm sure there are plenty of designers out there which offer the same recipe for less money. So while Hundred Silent Ways Extrait de Parfum definitely smells pleasant, you have to really love it to justify a bottle.
Overall Rating: 6.8/10
