B-612
Named after the fictional asteroid from Antoine de Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince, Nishane B-612 Extrait de Parfum landed in 2018 with a clear creative mission: bottle the scent of a place that exists only in imagination. The asteroid B-612 was first discovered by a Turkish astronomer in the novella, and Istanbul-based Nishane, a Turkish niche house, claimed that story as its own. Aromatica carries the Nishane B-612 decant in Bangladesh in all available sizes, so you can explore this unusual woody aromatic fougere at your own pace.
Fragrance Notes
Top: Lavender, Cypress, Geranium
Heart: Cashmeran, Sandalwood, Cedar, Patchouli
Base: Musk, Oakmoss, Tonka Bean
The Scent
Lavender and geranium arrive together in a crisp, almost electric aromatic accord: sharp and herbal, with cypress lending a resinous green edge that reads more like compressed forest air than a conventional fresh note. It does not smell sweet at the start. It smells mineral, structured, and slightly austere, like cold stone in a sunlit clearing. Within the first ten minutes on skin, the geranium takes on a faintly rosy, metallic quality that can read as striking or polarizing depending on the wearer. This is a fragrance with opinions, and they form fast.
As it settles into the heart, cashmeran becomes the load-bearing note. If you have not encountered cashmeran before, it sits somewhere between clean woody musk and a warm, slightly smoky synthetic depth. Here it works with cedar and sandalwood to build a soft but present woody body beneath the aromatic herbs. Patchouli is restrained, earthy rather than dark, adding a mild thickness that stops the cedar from reading as purely clean or barbershop. This is where B-612 earns its Extrait classification: the concentration lets these middle notes bloom slowly rather than announce themselves all at once. The interplay between the lingering lavender from the top and the warming cashmeran underneath creates an accord that shifts noticeably between the first spray and the fifteen-minute mark, which is worth waiting for. The cedar gradually draws back as sandalwood assumes a creamier role, smoothing the transition from the herbal brightness above into the deeper, earthier materials below. That drift from the sharp aromatic opening toward a warmer woody accord is one of the more rewarding aspects of wearing B-612 at Extrait concentration.
The dry-down into the base brings a noticeable softening across the whole composition. Oakmoss and tonka bean do most of the settling work. The moss brings a cool, slightly damp forest-floor character. The tonka adds a faint sweetness, almost powdery but not talc-like, that rounds the lingering lavender into something warm and settled. By the late dry-down, B-612 sits close to skin as a quiet, mossy, woody musc that reads both modern and classically fougere at once. The opening phase can read as intense and almost overwhelming in the early minutes, or confidently moderate depending on skin chemistry. The Extrait concentration means individual experience can differ more than it would in an Eau de Parfum, making the first hour on your own skin the most revealing test.
When to Wear
B-612 suits cooler months, particularly autumn and early winter, when its green-resinous opening and mossy dry-down feel grounded rather than heavy. It works well for daytime office wear or quiet evenings where you want something considered and slightly unusual without veering into statement territory. Browse the full Aromatic Herbs and Fougere collection if this family of scents suits your taste.
Who Is It For
Wearers who grew up with classic fougeres and want a version rethought with modern ingredients will find B-612 a natural next step: someone who reads the notes on a bottle before they spray it and prefers woody, herbal, earthy complexity over sweetness or fruit.
If you enjoy Green Irish Tweed by Creed, B-612 sits in the same aromatic-woody family and is worth comparing for a niche Turkish perspective on the same lineage. Browse the full Nishane collection at Aromatica.
Available as an authentic decant in Bangladesh at Aromatica in 3ml, 5ml, 9ml, and 15ml.
