Shem, from the Turkish house Nishane, is a rose-centred floral released in 2021 and composed by Lucas Sieuzac. Floral is the one description everyone agrees on; about a quarter each also mention spicy, woody, resinous, ambery and leathery sides, which gives a sense of how much is going on beneath the rose.

Cardamom and elemi open it with a cool, slightly lemony spice and a resinous, peppery lift. The heart pairs Turkish rose with geranium, so the rose reads green and a little sharp rather than jammy, while osmanthus adds an apricot-like, faintly leathery softness. The base is where the darker elements arrive: leather, vetiver and cypriol give a smoky, earthy, slightly inky depth, and amber warms it through.

It is a shared fragrance, worn by anyone. The combination of a bright rose with leather and smoke suggests a scent for cooler weather and evenings, and for people who prefer their rose with edges rather than sweetness.
