Clandestine Laboratories Ashes Eau De Parfum

Capturing the essence of ashes, death, and rebirth while maintaining comfort and a clandestine quality.

After three years of perfecting, the result is a soft, earthy-green scent with a hint of humidity and a transcendent, sensual quality.

Drawing inspiration from the clean, grounding aroma of wood ash and the concept of loss and renewal, this fragrance embodies the cycle of life.

Its unique blend of natural ingredients, including gardenia, frankincense, jasmine, and patchouli, creates a floral heart that is fresh, sheer, and ethereal.

While some may only detect the earthy notes, it is primarily a floral fragrance with a subtle musky radiance that is both straightforward and complex.

As with all Clandestine fragrances, it seamlessly blends with your body chemistry, making it a pleasure to wear and experience.

Clandestine Laboratories, founded in 2010 by Mark Sage, began as an unexpected passion for fragrance.

Despite his scientific upbringing and initial indifference to perfumery, Sage transitioned from artist to perfumer.

The brand has since gained recognition among indie fragrance enthusiasts. Sage describes perfumery as a complex art form, involving hundreds of materials that must be precisely blended to create a harmonious composition that unfolds over time.

He likens the challenge to painting with colors that change visibility and interact unpredictably. Despite the difficulties, Sage finds the pursuit of creating original, high-quality fragrances deeply satisfying, especially when witnessing genuine positive reactions from others.
