Nishane Afrika Olifant

Afrika Olifant by Nishane is a bold, unapologetic Oriental fragrance for women and men that pays homage to the raw, untamed power of nature. Launched in 2015 and created by master perfumer Jorge Lee, this Extrait de Parfum is a stunning olfactory portrait of the African savannah, where the smoky breath of dry earth meets the powerful scent of wild animals.

The composition opens with a magnificent, resinous explosion. Top notes of Myrrh, Ambergris, Frankincense, and Labdanum create a rich, smoky, slightly sweet, and honeyed introduction – an aroma reminiscent of ancient rituals and sacred spaces. As the fragrance evolves, the heart reveals its fierce, animalic character: a captivating blend of Civet, Castoreum, Leather, and Oud. This unique combination conjures the sensation of warm, powerful fur, sun-baked leather, and the deep, resinous wood of a long-forgotten forest. The base is a long-lasting, musky foundation of Synthetic Civet, Muscenone®, Thibetone, Muscone, and Civetone, leaving a sensual, warm, and deeply addictive trail that lingers on the skin for hours.

More than just a perfume, Afrika Olifant is an experience. It is a complex, challenging, and ultimately rewarding fragrance that reveals itself slowly, inviting the wearer to embrace their wild, confident side. With exceptional longevity and a strong, captivating sillage, it is the perfect signature for evening wear, cooler months, and those who dare to be different.
