Parfums de Marly Nisean Eau de Parfum 125ml Spray

Parfums de Marly Nisean Eau de Parfum 125ml is a refined niche fragrance launched in 2016 by the prestigious French perfume house Parfums de Marly. Named after the legendary Nisean horses of ancient Persia, the composition is a smoky, spicy, and woody oriental built on pink pepper, lime and grapefruit on top, a complex floral-resinous heart of saffron, labdanum, olibanum, rose and geranium, and a deep drydown of precious woods, patchouli, amber and cedar.

About Parfums de Marly

Parfums de Marly is a French niche perfume house founded by Julien Sprecher in 2009, drawing on the 18th-century atmosphere of King Louis XV's Château de Marly.

Who it's for

Nisean suits unisex fragrance lovers drawn to luxury niche compositions with complex, layered oriental character — those who appreciate Parfums de Marly's wider portfolio and want a refined spicy-woody signature. It is at its best in autumn and winter, ideal for formal occasions, dressed-up evenings and any context where a sophisticated, statement-worthy sillage is appropriate.

How to wear it

1. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, base of the neck and behind the ears — at around 15cm
2. Apply over moisturised skin to extend longevity
3. Avoid rubbing wrists together to preserve the citrus-pepper top
4. Two sprays is typically plenty; Parfums de Marly fragrances project strongly and last well
