SmokyWhat does Ascendant smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than leaving a strong trail. Few people have rated it, so this is only a rough picture. It is classed as a masculine scent.
The fruity and sweet side leads. Vanilla adds softness, bergamot brings freshness, and fennel gives it a slightly earthy edge. Woody, powdery and smoky tones sit in the background, with a synthetic touch running through.
