Askr
Askr by Jorum Studio is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. The house lists its notes as sea salt, chamomile, angelica, elemi, sichuan pepper, galbanum, atlas cedar, iris, copal, driftwood, seaweed, ambergris, papyrus, vetiver and hay, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Sea Salt Mineral and dry. Skin after a day at the beach.
- Chamomile Herbal, apple-like and calming. Quiet and a bit hay-ish.
- Angelica Musky, herbal root. Earthy and a bit strange.
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
- Sichuan Pepper Buzzy, citrus-tinged pepper. Tingles rather than burns.
- Galbanum Intensely green resin. Smells like snapping a plant stem in half.
- Atlas Cedar Smoother, resinous cedar. Warmer than the Virginia type.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Copal A bright, lemony tree resin burned as incense in Mexico. Lighter than frankincense.
- Driftwood Salt-bleached and dry. Wood that has been in the sea.
- Seaweed Salty, green and faintly funky. Real coastline rather than a bottle of 'fresh'.
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- Papyrus Dry, smoky, papery wood. Vetiver's quieter cousin.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Hay Sun-dried grass and tonka. Warm, rustic and comforting.
