Nishane Favonius Extrait is a woody unisex fragrance.

The myth of Favonius and Flora, the goddess of flowers, is a fascinating tale that celebrates love and transformation. It is said that Favonius, the Roman god of wind, fell madly in love with Flora and, wishing to win her over, transformed himself into a rose, the goddess's favorite flower. Flora, touched by Favonius's gesture of love, kissed the rose, thus fulfilling his wish. It is said that the term "rose" originated from a misunderstanding between Flora and Cupid: struck by the arrow of love, Flora tried to pronounce the word "Eros," but her emotion made it sound like "ros." Since then, the rose has become the symbol of love, youth, and beauty in both Roman and Greek cultures.

Favonius, whose name means "favorable," was known as the gentle and fruitful wind, the messenger of spring. He was said to rule over plants and flowers, bringing with him the vitality and fertility of nature during its spring awakening. The Roman poet Horace described the arrival of spring as the return of Favonius and his bright westerly winds, bringing rebirth and prosperity.

In Favonius Extrait, created exclusively for Harrods by Nishane, rose, incense, and oud blend harmoniously to create an enveloping sensory experience. Incense, with its distinctive note, opens the fragrance, accompanying the flow and promoting a smooth transition to the rose and oud notes. A fragrance that captures the magic of spring and the essence of love and transformation.
