EGE / ΑΙΓΑΙΟ

EGE / ΑΙΓΑΙΟ is a tribute to the Aegean Sea - an elongated embayment of the Mediterranean Sea located between the Greek and Anatolian peninsulas – that has been historically important, especially in regard to the civilization of Ancient Greece, who inhabited the area around the coast of the Aegean and the Aegean islands. The Aegean islands facilitated contact between the people of the area and between Europe and Asia.

EGE is the Turkish name for the sea which was derived from the Greek name ΑΙΓΑΙΟ. Having both names together as the name of the perfume (EGE / ΑΙΓΑΙΟ) is a deliberate choice by NISHANE in order to pay tribute to the shared skies and culture by Turkish and Greek people who are the neighboring residents of the Aegean costs which - as Heredotus said - a world of summer sea-breeze, deep blue waters with every pebble on the bottom clearly visible, towns and villages full of houses painted white and blue, a common bond of cuisine, shared instruments and lyrics having a feeling of nostalgia mixed with hopefulness, a cohabitation and interdependence of centuries.
