First of all, the name and the meaning of the fragrance is yes extraordinarily beautiful, as already mentioned in some reviews!
Therefore, I was very curious about the fragrance, and the perfume house Nishane is relatively strongly hyped anyway.
"Ani | Nishane" was too masculine and not so mine, "Ambra Calabria | Nishane" I liked as a summer fragrance quite well (not too fresh or aquatic), but not enough that I have to have it for 2 months of summer as a bottle.
So it followed the Testerei with "Hundred Silent Ways | Nishane" ...

It begint directly mti a very sweet prelude, where I can not much auseinaderklamüsern, I think it is strongly marked by tuberose and powdery peach.
Now I've read it being compared to "La Vie est Belle L'Eau de Parfum | Lancôme", however this one has more style and is less stridently sweet and effervescent in my opinion, as LVEB always created snaps for me and was too sticky.
"Hundred Silent Ways | Nishane" is finer for me.
The comparison to "Black Opium (Eau de Parfum) | Yves Saint Laurent" I can understand even more, both have the same dense sweetness, but the course here is more gently interwoven, somehow more powdery and less squeaky; nevertheless, this comparison (unfortunately) really can not be dismissed.
"Baccarat Rouge 540 (Eau de Parfum) | Maison Francis Kurkdjian" I do not smell out here at all; "Hundred Silent Ways | Nishane" has perhaps the smell of "precious cotton candy", which I perceive in BR540 unfortunately hardly or only subtly; BR540 I find much more distinctive with more corners and edges, which are not there here.

The sweetness of "Hundred Silent Ways | Nishane" has something dry, which does not let it drift into the sticky, it is gently lulling and at the same time exudes going-out vibes for the evening (like the aforementioned designer fragrances just as well).
I actually don't find it exceptional due to the clear comparisons, I'm a bit disappointed to notice those black opium notes clearly, although if you weren't familiar with these perfumes like Black Opium, the scent is really pretty if you like it sweet.
Towards drydown I smell a great combination of slightly woody earthy cotton candy that stays subtle, dark, slightly "burnt".
Without Black Opium & Co, I think of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Ballet; of aristocratic balls, melancholic fairy tales.
A fragrance for going out, for romantic dates, nothing for everyday life, but there is something sentimental, dreamy and also playful about it, a depth that then distinguishes it from the flat party fragrances in the mainstream.
Whether you want to spend the money for him, then everyone must decide for themselves, in any case, you are better served with "Hundred Silent Ways | Nishane" than with La vie est belle & Co in my opinion.
Can you fade out the eternal Dauerbrenner designer fragrances, can be the here really beautiful and portable.

The perfume "Cassili | Parfums de Marly" I felt not worth buying.
"Delina Exclusif | Parfums de Marly" was a conflicting tester; I found it elegant, but not well wearable for me; I smelled something increasingly slaying pungent there, though many find it to be softer/rounder than the original Delina.
In fact, I already found the Exclusif more tiring, bulky and unsweet than Delina on the opening; I smell the rhubarb on both Delinas, but in juicier and fresher on the regular Delina.
I don't know whether the Exclusif has the oud from the start or the bergamot is more intense, but I miss a balancing sweetness, something gentle.
The Delina is actually for me, contrary to expectations, more balanced.
The acidity doesn't last that long here, and the nutmeg lends subtle spice and warm depth.
Florals follow, with a focus on rose, of course, but less headache-heavy than the Exclusif, more delicate and without the smoke that I never found "sweetly creamy" or "powdery" on the Excklusif.
With the Excklusif, after repeated testing, it felt like a wrestling match was taking place on my skin; rose versus oud (or incense) and knocked me out.
Here I just smell sweet, rosy florality, creamy-sweet like Katjes Yogurt Gums, and I can understand that those who wanted a pure rose garden are disappointed, because it doesn't smell like "real" rose, which doesn't bother me.
Oddly enough, I don't find the "Delina (Eau de Parfum) | Parfums de Marly" at all overbearing and too forward, and I've worn it a few times.
As with the Exclusif, not much happens in the way of drydown, it just gets quieter bit by bit, but it's quite long lasting.

I did not float ad hoc on cloud 7, but found him already at the first spraying much more pleasant than the Exclusif, which I would not have expected, and find him more beautiful the more often I use the filling.

I was very curious about the perfume, but already suspected that it probably could not be for me; but the green vanilla sounded too beautiful...

The prelude I do not like at all; peppery green, the ginger spicy, the bergamot tart, all somehow a slap in the face, but that does not have to remain so.
In the first place I feel the fragrance as herbaceous, but something irritating mild lurks in the background, which bothers me and makes for a contrasting turgidity; tart herb and in addition an indifferent sweetness, that sounds initially actually quite good, in this combination, however, it's like Nutella with cheese for me; just does not fit and causes me nausea.
Then rather just a fresh, tart prelude.

Quite quickly I smell fresher components, something citrusy, but not a toilet stone, not too sour, but pleasantly refreshing, although I actually do not like citrus so much.
I think of a summer house with a pool in the mountains overlooking the Mediterranean, drinking a chai tea in the shade.
Why chai tea, I think at first, oh yes, the cardamom!

It develops balsamic with a slightly citrusy "green vanilla", yes, it does, but not as I had hoped.
Absolutely interesting and well done the whole thing, but I'm bothered by this contrast program then but; a blob of custard garnished with quite a lot of green, heavy-smelling herbs...since I would have found but rather from the weighting more vanilla good and in addition green notes and spices.
Totally unisex, depending on what the respective sex prefers for a scent, but I personally bothered a fragrance that I do not like me as a woman at all; a "squeaky sharpness" and masculine spice somehow (although I often like spicy notes too), as if the cardamom is still there somehow, the vanilla wants to box itself out again and again, but has no chance.
For me rather strongly spiced woodruff jello, no idea where this association comes from.

Interestingly, I have the fragrance so in about also imagined based on the descriptions, but hoped for something more feminine for me.

Even before I tested it, I thought I'd like it, as it seemed quite pleasing, one you can't go wrong with
A really fantastic prelude, where I really like the fruitiness for once; mild, gentle tangerine, which is not squeaky, not cheap, penetrating, sharp or sugary-girly!
The immediate association: spa in a luxurious spa, gentle vapors wafting towards you.
The connection to "Cassili | Parfums de Marly" is perhaps close at first, but Cassili is much fruitier, plumper, clumsier, saltier and stronger, stronger hot beach vibes, while "Musk Therapy | Initio" for me embodies more of a spa, or strolling through Mediterranean alleys, or walking along the beach in the evening.
Musk Therapy is already finer than Cassili, in my opinion.
It develops sweetly creamy, rather than sunscreen like Cassili more like relaxing spa treatments, gentle aromatherapy, a scent that is not complex but perfectly balanced, a scent I would love to spray myself with from top to bottom.
Spa vibes get "creamier" without being stuffy sweet, more yogurt ice cream instead of cream bomb, silky and creamy at the same time like a second skin, clean without being too washing-powder fresh.
Delicately sweet, freshly showered, after an expensive high-quality body lotion and after the residual clouds of Rituals room scent sticks it smells to the end.
So in approximately smells actually my mummy frequently, however she uses no 200-Euro-Fragrance...
In my opinion, rather feminine, if you want to classify him gender.

I have the impression, unfortunately, that he becomes quite quickly skin, of course, it is supposed to be a rather quiet fragrance, nothing that includes all other people, but after the gentle fruitiness has disappeared, you have to smell more closely.
After about 4 hours, it seems to be only a shadow on the wrist, after showering, however, I can still perceive a clean musky smell.
Naturlcih can also sometimes deceive the self-perception, as far as sillage and intensity are concerned, but I find it a great pity that he does not put a little more power to the day.

Otherwise, however, an absolute feel-good fragrance with the nix piekst, nix disturbs, where everything fits together, but one that you probably have to spray a little over ...

Coffee fragrances I have not tested many, so far only years ago "So New York" by Bond No. 9, which I did not like at all (dry filter coffee with plum) and "Black Opium", which lives more of a screaming sweet note.

In the opening of "Intense Cafe", one directly encounters synthetics, which Montale never seems to be able to avoid, but here it is far from a clubbing, but all within a pleasant framework.
Sweet floral notes with creaminess herald the scent, a coffee aroma also makes its presence known, but not too strong or bitter.
The rose is sweet, not pungent or cool.
I actually do not feel it as a very heavy winter fragrance, it has despite the notes something airy and cheerful about it, yet it is also well suited for the evening.
In the further course I smell caramel latte macchiato, but masculine tart I find him at no time.
Of course, the men can also wear, yet he tends for me rather to the feminine side.
He alternates continuously beautiful between creamy vanilla coffee note, which is perceptible to me until the end, and sweet florality.
In contact with water in the shower comes out again a strong coffee smell.
The durability is really good and it remains intense on the skin, the sillage I can not yet properly assess; I have used 3 small sprays (behind the ears and collarbone) and perceived it myself only weakly and actually I smell myself always very intense, I feel even with 2, 3 sprays already like standing in a fat fragrance cloud.

The next day I smelled only sweet and vanilla florality on my wrist for a long time while testing, before I guessed a coffee aroma.

I like "Intense Cafe" very much and will probably get it to me.
