The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2018, Ashwaq Noir by Orientica is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that balances sweet and woody accords with fresh fruity notes. The composition opens with the brightness of bergamot and green notes, which give way to a heart of melon and pineapple, creating a sense of contrast between freshness and sweetness. As it settles into its base, Ashwaq Noir reveals rich vanilla and musky undertones that add depth and warmth.
Due to its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, one or two sprays are sufficient. The fresh top notes will quickly make an impression, while the rich base notes continue to unfold throughout the day.
