Nishane Colognize Extrait
Description
Colognisé reinvents the Turkish tradition of offering guests a splash of lemon cologne, reimagined by Nishane as an "Extrait de Cologne", an 18% essence concentration that's richer and longer-lasting than a traditional eau de cologne. Launched in 2018, it opens with green tea, jasmine, lemon, and bergamot, moves into lily of the valley and grapefruit, and settles into a soft musk, neroli, and vetiver base.

FAQ
Is Colognisé the same as a regular cologne?
Not exactly: Nishane created "Extrait de Cologne" as a richer, 18%-concentration take on the traditional lemon cologne, so it lasts longer than a classic splash cologne.
Is it unisex?
Yes.
How long does it last?
Reports vary, but expect a lighter, closer-wearing scent of roughly 5–6 hours given its cologne-strength concentration.
What season is it best for?
Its bright citrus and green tea profile suits spring and summer especially well.
