The Absolute Best From The Brand
Over the many years as a fragrance enthusiast and reviewer, I’ve encountered countless interpretations of traditional cologne formats, mainly following the same formula. However, few have captured my attention and imagination, quite like this flanker of the original Colognise. Safran Colognise is a rare gem that stands out from the brand’s more popular fragrances, and it’s a privilege to share my insights about it with you.
TOP NOTES
The opening is nothing short of remarkable. A bold and immediately captivating combination of tangy cedrat and grapefruit and an exotic touch of passion fruit is entirely different from what we usually see in a cologne-type fragrance.
What impresses me about the top notes is their pristine quality and natural feel, and it restores my faith in perfumery that only some things have gone down the drain when considering originality in a broad spectrum.
HEART NOTES
The middle stage is even better. This is when saffron and pepper add depth to its already fantastic opening. I have not detected any floral aspects in these three years of owning this fragrance. The saffron note here is masterfully rendered, presenting multiple facets of this precious spice. This is likely the best saffron interpretation in perfumery. Just magnificent.
BASE NOTES
As if it wasn’t good enough already with everything going on, we are introduced to marine, salty, and musky aspects in the dry down. The ambergris and musk foundation provides a warm, skin-like quality that transforms the fragrance from a citrusy and leathery cologne into something more intimate and lasting. What impresses me most about the base notes is their ability to maintain the fragrance’s essential character while adding depth and longevity.
OVERALL
This creation successfully bridges the gap between traditional Turkish cologne-making and contemporary niche fragrance composition, offering something unique in today’s market saturated with dull and overpriced perfumes. I believe this is a hidden gem masterpiece that only some people talk about, and currently, the best Nishane offers.
