Maiora Parfum Ask is a Parfum launched in 2023, created by Antonio Gigli. Ask opens with Salt, Sea Water, Myrtle, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Herbal, Jasmine, Geranium, and Eucalyptus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Patchouli. Maiora Parfum's Ask carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

Ask is a salty, herbal aquatic with a woody, resinous base. Sea water, juniper and eucalyptus give it a cool, coastal feel, and patchouli, cedar and pine ground it. A distinctive pick for anyone who finds standard aquatics too sweet.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Ask Parfum opens like a sea breeze, with sea water and salt alongside juniper and myrtle. The heart stays cool and green, with eucalyptus, herbal notes, jasmine and geranium. Underneath, patchouli, amber, cedar, musk and pine add depth, so the freshness has something dry and woody to rest on. Antonio Gigli is the credited perfumer. This is a briny, herbal, woody aquatic that feels crisp and a bit rugged.
