• Sillage: It begins with a noticeable presence but settles into an intimate sillage / office-safe range within two hours. At that point, it becomes a your-skin-but-better finishhighly personal and deeply tactile.
• Ethics: Like all Shay & Blue creations, Nashwa is PETA-certified cruelty-free & vegan, appealing to the conscious luxury consumer.
