Fan Your Flame is a tremendous discovery. Inspired by the poet Rumi, who wrote ‘Set fire to your life, seek those who fan your flame’. An extract from the Turkish indie house Nishane Istanbul. For me, it’s a 10/10 in every way. Opening is an exquisite boozy note with slightly sweet coconut and rough tobacco that, in combination, feels velvety. At the one-hour mark, a creaminess and sweetness given by the tonka bean and coconut (which sweetens gradually). In the drydown, the boozy sensation continues but is more woody, like aged rum barrels… exquisite and a marvel. It has different development depending on pH: some find it sweeter, others more woody. Both are enchanting. Performance: Extraordinary, with over 12 hours of longevity and at least 5 hours of projection.
A great discovery. I feel very happy to have acquired it. Potent, with character, good trail, longevity, and presence. Generally, tobacco oriental scents like Tom Ford or Parfums de Marly Herod have a sweet base of honey, amber, or cinnamon. There are bolder ones like Iron Duke by Beaufort with rum and gunpowder, but this, along with Iron Duke, is the most potent and spectacular I’ve smelled. On the opening, the rum is like a Bacardi with a coconut base, a creamy touch of tonka bean, and that very fine pipe tobacco sweetness. All in great volume, not a whisper like Arabesque or Don by Xerjoff. It has great quality; it’s not rough but certainly steroid-heavy. The drydown reminds me slightly of Journey by Amouage, more resinous and woody. For me, it’s a must-have for a collector. Scent 10/10, Trail 9.5/10, Longevity 9/10, Projection 9/10, Recommended 100%.
This perfume smells like a typical sweet from my city, Cartagena: cocadas. It smells exactly like toasted coconut with dulce de leche (caramel) bathed in rum, super realistic. You can feel the quality in every note. The performance is acceptable for an extrait de parfum, between 8 and 10 hours, with the first few sprays projecting strongly (don’t overdo it or you’ll regret it). The trail is wonderful; it’s an elegant perfume that attracts many compliments.
I bought this 47ml decant blind, guided by the notes, and I confess I’m in love. It’s a dark, seductive, and potent fragrance; unisex masculine but perfectly usable by a woman. It smells of high-quality wood: oak dampened with spiced rum, dry tobacco leaves, and a vanilla sweetness from tonka bean, with fleshy sweet coconut in the base. It reminds me of my beloved Side Effect by Initio, but more potent, seductive, and masculine. As time passes, the vanilla rum with coconut dominates, leaving the oak and tobacco in bursts. I quote the poem that inspires it: ‘Set fire to your life, seek those who fan your flame’.
Unisex masculine, quite interesting. This is how empty rum barrels should smell, with the spirituous notes coming from the sweet part thanks to the coconut. Originally, I thought it was the least potent of Nishane until I had a coffee and ‘reset’ my sense of smell: it was still there as if I’d applied it minutes ago. (8.7/10)
I don’t understand why it’s classified as very masculine; girls, it’s super sexy on a woman! It smells sweet with that tobacco touch and the coconut that appears and disappears when you least expect it. The longevity is stellar and the trail is no less so. I highly recommend it for women too. 👌
IN MY NOSE: This smells like a woman’s blouse with traces of cologne that someone spilled ‘Cuba Libre’ (rum with Coca-Cola) on at the club on a Saturday at 6am on the way home smoking a joint. I thought I’d find fine pipe tobacco like Herod or sweet like Naxos, but I found cigarette smoke mixed with cheap drink. It smells good, don’t get it wrong; it’s playful and fun, and definitely NOT suitable for blind purchase.
I feel the rum, tobacco and moss super potent in the opening and close to the skin for the first half hour; it makes me think it’s masculine, so strong that I even sneezed. The trail smells incredible: a sweet, creamy, feminine coconut, almost gourmand; as it approaches it mixes with the rum and becomes super unisex and delicious. At 6 hours, the dry-down is a sweet feminine gourmand, almost fruity, I imagine it’s the tonka bean. Goodbye to the coconut… However, I still have a trail at short distance 19 hours after showering; the scent sticks to my skin, more vanilla-like, and still has a trail for those who greet me. I had never tried a perfume like this so I muted according to distance; I’m in shock. Sincerely, I’d prefer to smell it on a man than on me; I’ll test it on my boyfriend and edit again tomorrow. For me it’s a no; I don’t know when I’d use a fragrance with so much personality, I prefer my sweeter, less expensive feminine scents.
Curious: I bought it for a good price and read wonders, but at first it didn’t entirely please me. After several times, I changed my mind. It’s not a scent that blows my mind, but in every wear I perceive a standout note: sometimes more coconut, other times tobacco, other times rum. It’s a perfume that smells like coconut with a ‘boozy’ note, which turns into tobacco; combined they are very pleasant and unique. Unfortunately, on my skin it doesn’t have good projection, although it lasts at least eight hours straight.
The opening is quite masculine: dominant oak moss for the first half hour with rum and tobacco. After that time, the intensity drops, it becomes creamy and sweet; although it can feel unisex, in my opinion it works better on male skin. The oak moss never abandons, very classic. Projection and longevity are excellent.
Nuclear Bomb is strong, it kills all other scents. I shower daily, but if I didn’t, in a month no one would notice it. I’m hard to fix and this lasted me more than 12 hours. I don’t use masculine notes but this reconstructs itself on every skin and I dare to wear it. At first I smell whisky (although it says rum) with mint; then comes the tobacco, not leaf but gunpowder when lighting, followed by maceration woods like barrels with a tonka bean sweetness in coconut cream; at the end, soft woods remain with coconut on my skin. It’s a hit, I agree with Landberk70: essential for collectors. I liked the poem that precedes it. I recommend it only for those who can withstand extreme, dominant aromas and seek quality regardless of price.
Fan Your Flames is a Nishane scent I wanted to try but it didn’t result as expected, without being bad. The opening is liquorish, slightly smoky and woody. The moss is very noticeable; the coconut seems ‘confit’ but not sweet or tropical; the tobacco is dry and the woody base gives elegance and a nocturnal touch. It evolves into something creamier, less strident in the rum, but immensely woody with good projection and longevity. I expected something sweeter, but it’s unique, of excellent quality and presence. I see it as more masculine, for special occasions and cold weather. If you’re interested in Nishane, it’s mandatory to try it for its complexity. However, I wouldn’t own it; I prefer structures like Nasomatto Baraonda or Bentley for Men Intense (although this one lacks sweetness). Note: 8/10.
I must review this for the curious feedback it provokes. I liked it in store, ‘but nothing more’. I got a 5ml vial for the tobacco note and the original combination with coconut. One day I atomised it and it left me indifferent, less than in store. But days later I put it on again for work and what a pleasure it gave me. It’s fabulous for maintaining calm and concentration: it keeps the warmth of the tobacco with the jovial twist of the coconut. It’s very balanced; the coconut doesn’t overwhelm me. It has a calming, enveloping, relaxing and sexy effect. Every time I use it, I like it more. In the end, I’ll get the big bottle.
I tried Fan Your Flames looking for something spirited until I was told I had had too much to drink, but it was the exact opposite: a delicious, realistic liquid coconut that recalls the texture of meat, with tonka bean and a well-integrated rum base. Although it lacks vanilla, the rum makes it smell vanilla-like, with cinnamon and cloves, reminiscent of The Kraken. After half an hour, the heart of sweetened tobacco emerges, not smoky but like dried leaves. The composition is sweet and dusted by the tonka bean which lingers with the tobacco. It evokes pirates, vanilla rum, tropical Cuba, palms, and dark liquors. It’s unisex, even feminine at times, but balanced. Lasting power is tremendous: I tested it last night and it’s still there this morning. Excellent for moderate seasons; in extreme heat it’s risky. Ladies beware: two sprays in spring with fresh weather are a compliment bomb. Ideal for rainy days, it smells cosy and delicate, inviting you not to lift your nose. Lasting power and trail for 2 hours, decreasing but without losing performance; at 8 hours, a pleasant woody tobacco trail remains. Moderate price, well found searching online. A delicious specimen of spirited tobacco and coconut that I like more and more.
Definitely not for me. I trust my nose, even though I value the reviews. The note that persists until the end is the fig leaf, nothing more. It reminds me of Plilosikos by Diptyque. Unless my decant came incorrectly, which shouldn’t be the most logical option.
Smells like the coconut candies from my Cartagena: toasted coconut with arequipe soaked in rum. It’s super realistic; you can tell the quality in every note. Performance is acceptable for an extrait, lasting between 8 and 10 hours; the initial projection is strong (be careful with the sprays, or you’ll regret it). The trail is wonderful, elegant, and attracts many compliments.
I tried Fan Your Flame expecting an alcohol-heavy perfume that would make me feel like I’d had too many drinks, but it was the exact opposite: it’s a delicious, very realistic coconut perfume, liquid, with a scent that recalls the texture of the meat, accompanied by tonka bean and a well-integrated rum alcohol base. Despite not including vanilla, the rum makes it smell vanilla-like, with cinnamon and clove. That rum note reminds me a lot of The Kraken for the vanilla-cinnamon accent. After half an hour, I detect the heart of sweetened tobacco, possibly blond; it doesn’t smell of pure burning, but of dry leaves. The composition feels sweet and dusted by the tonka bean, which stays with the tobacco. It makes you think of pirates: a vanilla rum base, Cuba, tropical climate, palm trees, tobacco, and dark spiced liquors. Completely unisex, sometimes more feminine than masculine, but well balanced. Tremendous longevity as it’s an extract; I tried it before midnight and it was still detectable a few centimetres away this morning. I see it as excellent for any season if you moderate the atomiser; in extreme heat it can be risky. But watch out girls: two sprays on a trip to the pool in spring with cool weather is a compliment bomb. Highly recommended on rainy days; for some reason it smells cozier, delicate but soft, inviting you not to take your nose away. Notable longevity and trail of 2 hours; low but still offering its performance, and after 8 hours a pleasant woody tobacco trace remains. Moderate price, can be found at a good price searching online. A delicious sample of alicorated tobacco and coconut. Every time I smell it, I like it more and think about acquiring it.
This perfume wraps me in a sweet mantle, like biscuits soaked in liquor. There can be no autumn or winter; it’s more comforting to enjoy this fragrance every day. Note: 9/10.
One of those you can use in summer and autumn, but yes, only during the day with lots of sun.
A composition that transports me back years ago, when I worked at a water park. It’s a wonderful perfume; what predominates is the coconut, like sunscreen, with tobacco leaves that dry out the composition. Nevertheless, it has creaminess and sweetness thanks to the tonka bean, which joins with a smell of wet towel. All these notes settle on a woody base, slightly vanilla-infused, and wrapped in rum. Don’t be alarmed; that wet smell isn’t aggressive or dissonant; it combines very well and remains pleasant. Imagine you’re dining on a terrace at a water park, smoking a sweet cigar and drinking rum, and the lifeguard passes by with his wet T-shirt soaked in dense sunscreen. The performance is impressive; without a shower, it won’t leave your skin. Totally unisex.
Fan Your Flames is magic; one of my favourite perfumes. It opens with well-made creamy coconut, with a touch of alcohol and tobacco. 10/10, buy it without hesitation.
Tobacco, coconut, and rum are the standout aromas, with the coconut/rum mix giving it that extreme sweet touch, but the tobacco regulates it perfectly. It seems strange to see most recommend it for winter and night; I would use it during the day in mild heat, because for the night I have many options that work better in the fresh.
It’s interesting to discover something not everyone uses or that doesn’t fit current fashion; that makes smelling different perfumes exciting. Fan Your Flames is a reasonable tropical fragrance that opens very smoky, with a resinous smoke and some sweetness, but with more emphasis on a sweet, long-lasting coconut, with a balsamic vibe in the first 15-20 minutes that volatilises quickly to give way to a potent interaction of boozy coconut, tonka bean, and moss. The cedar and rum create an open, aromatic, authentic, and dark rum barrel. Then the tobacco enters, almost like green herbs and heavy, floating around the rum barrel with good potency while the coconut remains present. It is extremely intoxicating, creamy, and high quality. It’s exotic, a bit mischievous, and sensual, but also distinguished and elegant. My problem is that after four uses, I’m not sure if I really like it or not.
It’s a ‘drunk coconut’. I start with this because indeed, the coconut and rum notes are the most perceived, very pleasant to my nose. The tobacco note is different from other fragrances that have it; it’s not smoky or dry; it gives a spiced effect that makes me imagine drinking a boozy coconut cream in a spice market.
Fan your flames. I bought a 5ml decant, and to be honest, the opening didn’t suit me at all; it smelled like cough syrup, not coconut, tobacco, or rum. I love coconut notes, but after 10 minutes, the coconut appeared with a subtle tobacco. I used the decant gradually until almost finished and thought, ‘it didn’t convince me, next’. Then, two weeks passed and I used what remained; by heavens, those last drops ignited the flames of its scent and wouldn’t leave my mind for a month until I had to buy the bottle. It transformed into one of my favourites.
It was a terrible olfactory experience; literally, it smells like vomit. Imagine you’ve eaten coconut, got drunk on rum, smoked a cigar on a deserted island, and got so seasick you’re throwing yourself against a palm tree, vomiting all the coconut and rum. I don’t understand it as a perfume or even as a smell; it is truly unpleasant.
Oh, what a disappointment. A strong opening, but without that magical coconut promised; it smells of resin, wood, and bitter earth. There isn’t a hint of sweetness, not even a touch of tonka bean! Suddenly, a mentholated hit that I don’t understand. It dries down slightly better, but it remains a strange, mossy, medicinal blend. My husband tried it and found it disgusting; he says it’s brutally strong and lacks sillage. It sounds like I rubbed moss and wood on my wrist. It might be my pH, but ultimately, I feel like it’s a remedy. I’ll keep it for a while, but I’m not sure what to do with it.
This perfume reminds me of sexy nights with a mature, elegant man, with a distinctive accent of distant land alongside the water, in a salon or clandestine bar drinking whisky and rum, smoking cigars to accompany the liquor, not too smoky, perhaps breaking them to see their insides and preparing for other activities. Afrobeats in the background, summer breeze… I just want to caress a classy woman’s neck. She whispers something playful and it ends up somewhere else! Very lovely. Perhaps I imagine a famous person smelling like this, or if their music had a scent. I’m not sure I’d wear it alone, but I definitely imagine spraying it at night after other perfumes. I’m interested to see how it combines with others. I’m also excited to try it in cool or warm climates. I wonder if it would work well with oud.
It reminds me a lot of Roaring Radcliff by Penhaligon’s. I love a scent that smells like a pirate movie with coconut, rum, and tobacco. Over time it feels mentholated, I suppose due to the moss. I feel it is totally nocturnal and for winter. It has good longevity and sillage, although they aren’t the most potent in the house. It’s not something to buy blindly.
A brilliant proposal from Nishane, not for everyone. It is dark, complex, and rounded, very sexy and mysterious. It’s an acquired taste: the first time it smelled medicinal and I thought it wasn’t for me, the second time it improved but still didn’t convince me, and the third time was the definitive one. It opens medicinal but then vibrates with used barrel, tobacco, a touch of coconut, and sweetness that deepens it, as if it were sugar-coated. I suppose it’s due to the tonka. It has great projection; I didn’t use it in heat, but in the cold it shines. It doesn’t smell like anything I’ve tried before, another point in its favour.
Indeed! I tried it for the first time today. At first it smells herbal, fresh, and strong, but then it evolves with spices and green tobacco. Call me crazy, but years ago I bought a decant of Fan Your Flames and didn’t like it much, although I loved the scent; today it reminded me of that with Black Powder. It’s not a beast, but it shows a lot up close. The truth is I like it a lot and I recommend it.
I hate that it lasts so long… it’s overwhelming.
I love it; it evokes a pirate ship with barrels of aged rum, coconut shells, and raw tobacco, very niche style. As it dries, it shifts from being raw and alcoholic to creamy and sweet; the coconut smells like baked cake and the alcohol like 43-style liqueur. It’s a jewel that balances gourmand and tobacco notes without one dominating the other, creating a perfect composition where both accords vie for the spotlight from start to finish.
I tried this wonder yesterday. At first, the coconut and rum are at their best, and although they fade as it dries, they remain present. After a while, the tobacco, tonka, and cedar become noticeable, although the tonka can sometimes be hard to detect. It lasts for a very long time, up to 8 hours with just a decant. My girlfriend, who isn’t an expert, noticed the rum and coconut and gave it an 8/10, warning that if applied heavily it can become cloying. If you see it on sale, buy it: ideal for night dates or parties. It’s my first review here!
Luckily I only bought a decant, as it didn’t convince me. The coconut doesn’t smell of milk or fresh water, but rather of soap or cheap oil; on the opening it is piercing, almost caustic or insecticidal. I understand wanting to smell different, but with so many options available, I wouldn’t buy it. I don’t think I’ll use it again.
Beware of the ‘sweet’ label, as it is misleading. Far from those hyper-sweet trends, this is a woody, dry, and leathery perfume. That dryness makes the sweetness come across oddly, creating a ‘Malibu at night’ image that ultimately disappoints. I preferred when it was described as pirate-themed, as that makes more sense.
Total disappointment, although luckily I only tried a decant. The scent isn’t bad, but that blend of coconut and rum is far too intense and cloying for my taste; it smells more like a fragrance for a woman aged 40-50 than something fresh and wearable.
