Nishane Hacivat Extrait de Parfum — Bold Citrusy‑Woody Chypre

---

Storytelling Introduction

Named after one of the protagonists of the traditional Turkish shadow puppet story, Hacivat by Nishane aims to captivate like a performance — it starts bright and theatrical, then transitions into deep intrigue. With an opening full of citrus and pineapple, it quickly evolves into a refined woody‑mossy finale. This is fragrance with flair and presence.

Longevity & Sillage

• Among users, Hacivat is often praised for strong performance — projection is bold in early hours, and many report lasting well into the evening. 

• One wearer notes it “projects loudly for the first 3–4 hours” and “easily lasts 12+ hours on skin.” 

• In contrast, reviews on Fragrantica mention “great projection for 2.5 hours, but overall longevity is not that great” in some wearers. 

• On clothes or fabric, the scent tends to linger even longer. 

Thus, performance may depend a lot on skin type, climate, and application.
