Does the fig note make this a sweet fragrance?+−
Not primarily. While fig milk and vanilla provide a creamy texture, the scent stays grounded by green fig leaf, parsley, and dry resins like frankincense and myrrh, preventing it from leaning into gourmand territory.
How does this perform throughout a typical day?+−
It is generally recognized for having solid longevity on the skin, often lasting through a full workday, though it sits relatively close to the wearer rather than filling a room.
Is this better for warm or cold weather?+−
It is exceptionally versatile but most popular during spring and fall. The green floral notes shine in the blooming warmth of spring, while the woody, resinous base provides enough weight for cooler autumn days.
How does it lean in terms of gender?+−
Ashoka is designed for both men and women. It balances traditionally feminine florals like jasmine and rose with traditionally masculine elements like leather, birch, and vetiver.
