Tuscan Secrets John Ashwood arrived in 2016 — and it was immediately clear this one was here to stay. This is a unisex fragrance rooted in the sweet, east, and floral families. An eau de parfum — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Behind this fragrance stands the United Arab Emirates and its rich perfumery heritage. Tuscan Secrets John Ashwood — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The scent of Tuscan Secrets evolves as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of John Ashwood is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Floral, Citrus, Fruit and Sweet. It also reaches into Whiteflower, Balsamic, Wood and Musk. Within olfactory families the scent maps to East, Floral and Sweet.
In the first seconds you detect petal-airy opening notes: Hyacinth, Mandarin and Pineapple.
In the central layer you notice Honey, Iris, Jasmine and Labdanum keeping a praline-sweet direction.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Fruit, Musc, Wood and Powdery expand the olfactory volume in the background.
Taken together Tuscan Secrets reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best judged through real development.
