Shu

Aswan · 2025

Fresh · Citrus · Aquatic

Aswan Shu is a men's fragrance that sets bergamot, petitgrain and fig in a fresh, citrusy, aquatic frame, and it sits closest to everyday wear. It opens with ozonic notes, bergamot and petitgrain, bright and citrus-led. The heart of fig, solar note and marine notes turns fruity, lightly sweet and watery. Ambroxan, labdanum and amberwood settle the base into a woody, creamy finish. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good. Daily wear, leisure and business are the settings that come up most, though it also gets worn for sport and evenings out. It is classed as masculine. Its profile is close to Ambra Molecule and Ocean Noir.

Tefnut

8.0

Aswan · 2025

Fruity · Sweet · Synthetic

Aswan Tefnut is a woody, spicy unisex fragrance that sets the fruity sweetness of plum, cognac and blackcurrant against oak, leather and cinnamon. It opens with Himalayan blue poppy, green notes, narcissus and blackcurrant, while plum and cognac add a fruity, slightly boozy sweetness. In the heart, oak, cinnamon and leather pull it towards a woody-spicy character, and tuberose and tonka bean soften it with a creamy touch. The base of orange blossom, sandalwood, cedar, praliné and amber dries down sweet and oriental. Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small. With its sweet, leathery build it isn't tied to one gender. Giorgio Armani Armani Code Profumo and Guerlain L'Homme Idéal Extrême have a close profile.

Set

7.7

Aswan · 2025

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Aswan Set is a unisex fragrance that sets a fresh floral opening of mandarin orange, orange blossom and ylang-ylang over amber, iris and vetiver, with a sweet, powdery finish. It opens with mandarin orange and clary sage, fresh and fruity, while orange blossom and ylang-ylang pull it towards the floral. In the heart, amber, iris, labdanum and vetiver build a woody, spicy body. The base of patchouli, vanilla, tobacco and heliotrope sweetens it and moves it into a powdery, creamy, oriental tone. Mancera Indian Dream and Orlane Be 21 have a close profile.

Anubis

8.2

Aswan · 2025

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Aswan Anubis is a fresh, spicy and woody men's fragrance built around vervain, nutmeg and bergamot. The top holds vervain, nutmeg, aldehydes, bergamot and juniper berry, so citrus brightness meets spice and a slightly green edge. In the heart, cypress, sage and coriander pull the scent in a dry, herbal direction. The base settles into ambergris, cashmeran and woody notes, giving it a soft, powdery, woody foundation, with sweet and synthetic touches staying in the background. Kenzo Power Cologne and Calvin Klein Eternity (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.

Nephthys

7.0

Aswan · 2025

Floral · Green · Sweet

Aswan Nephthys is a floral, powdery women's fragrance, sweetened and lifted by a green touch. It opens with honey pomelo, powdery notes and magnolia, giving a soft, powdery first impression with a faint fruity edge. In the heart, tuberose, iris and violet leaf bring the floral side forward and add a cool green note. Vanilla, tonka bean and orchid in the base settle it onto a creamy, sweet footing. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the wearer. The vote count is small, so these ratings are tentative. It is made as a women's fragrance. Mine Perfume Lab Acqua di Talco & Panna and Nishane Vjola have a close profile.
