Nishane Nanshe — Powdery Rose & Water Floral Extrait

---

Storytelling Introduction

In ancient Sumerian myth, Nanshe was the goddess of dreams, water, and compassion. Nishane’s Nanshe aims to capture that poetic grace: soft rose petals drifting on a watery breeze, suffused with powder and light whispers of spice. It’s a perfume that feels both tender and layered—like rose blooming at dawn over calm waters.
