Ashoka by Neela Vermeire Creations is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for Women & Men

Inspired by a legendary ruler, Ashoka is a tribute to an emperor who was conquered by his own compassion at the moment his victory was assured.

He converted to Buddhism and devoted the rest of his life to spreading the Buddha’s teachings, to truth, to justice and to compassion for all living creatures beneath the sun.

His own evolution from ruthless conqueror to benevolent emperor is reflected in Ashoka’s journey from the fierce opening to a softly floral heart & the gentle embrace of its richly complex drydown.

Ashoka

Ashoka opens with a roasted fig, leathery with almost smoked tea leaves. Underneath these dry aromas lies a milky greenness which hints of humid tropics with a blush of aquatic floral that the lotus gives. The heart notes unfurl with the warmth of the skin to reveal sensuous lush floral notes that are tempered with sweet, creamy sandalwood and fresh balsams that resonate like rosen on a cello bow. The heart radiates above a powdery bed that is deeply fragrant and soft. Myrrh, tonka, incense swirl in a beautiful inversion of weightless base notes that both ground and lift this extremely elegant achievement. Ashoka is the definition of elegance- a perfect balance and control of opulence and restraint, dry aromatics and green milky sweetness, strong purpose and soft sophistication.
