What does Ashram smell like?
Nag Champa comes first; the heart brings champaca absolute, amber, East Indian patchouli, Australian sandalwood and Siam benzoin, with a spicy, oriental warmth running through it. The base settles on Brazilian vetiver, Himalayan cedar, frankincense and myrrh, leaving an earthy, smoky, resinous finish. Its profile is close to Profumum Roma Ambra Aurea and Angelo Caroli Incenso Indiano.
