Voters pick it most for leisure and nights out, and also say it suits daily and business wear. Its sweet, fresh character reads comfortably on both men and women.

Vanant

8.3

In Astra · 2025

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

The base of opoponax, birch tar and myrrh brings the resinous, smoky side, softened by creamy, powdery tones.

Tistar

7.4

In Astra · 2021

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

In Astra Tistar is a unisex fragrance that lays the cool bite of peppermint, pink grapefruit and eucalyptus over lavender and peony. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close to the skin without disappearing. Few votes back these ratings, so treat them as a rough guide. It suits men and women alike and works as an everyday scent, not tied to one season. The top is bright and sharp: aldehydes, peppermint, grapefruit, eucalyptus and yuzu. In the heart, lavender, rhubarb and peony bring out the floral and powdery side. The base of moss, nagarmotha, fir balsam and cade juniper settles it onto a woody, resinous, slightly smoky ground. Fruity, sweet and creamy tones round out the accords.

Mismar

In Astra · 2020

Fresh · Aquatic · Green

In Astra Mismar is a unisex fragrance built around juniper, cypress and frankincense, with a fresh, aquatic feel.

It can be worn by men and women alike, and no clear lean towards a particular season or occasion shows up. It opens with juniper, which gives it a cool, green edge. In the heart, cypress and ginger take over, the ginger adding a warm, spicy note. The base of frankincense and ambergris settles it onto a soft, woody footing. A synthetic texture also runs through the accords.
