Hacivat is the extrait de parfum Jorge Lee composed in 2017 for Nishane, with Mert Güzel and Murat Katran, within the Shadow Play trilogy inspired by Turkish shadow theatre. Pineapple, grapefruit and bergamot open onto jasmine, patchouli and cedar, before a base of oakmoss, Clearwood and dry woods.
Marin Kristic, on Scent Grail, finds its opening fresher than Aventus but judges it overpriced and overhyped, a “glorified clone”.
What critics say
Scent Grail, May 2023
Marin Kristic considers Hacivat one of the best-performing citrus and fruity fragrances on the market, and a compliment magnet. He does not find it original for all that: it is not an exact copy of Creed’s Aventus, but a “glorified clone”, overpriced and overhyped.
He prefers Aventus overall, while finding Hacivat’s opening fresher, and advises trying it before buying, or waiting for a discount.
