[H2] FAQs

[H3]
Does it actually last 12 hours?

Yes — because of concentration, not marketing. Ascent uses an extrait de parfum formula with up to 40% perfume oil. A standard Eau de Toilette contains 5–15%; the rest is alcohol that evaporates within hours. More oil means the scent stays on your skin and releases slowly all day. The chemistry is real.

[H3]
Why buy a 20 ml refill instead of a regular 150 ml bottle?

Because you're paying for what you actually wear. A 20 ml Ascent refill contains the same amount of pure fragrance oil as a 100 ml Eau de Toilette — it's just not diluted with alcohol. No heavy glass, no oversized box, no brand markup. And when you want a different scent, you swap the refill — not buy an entirely new bottle.

[H3]
How does the cashback on the Discovery Set work?

Order the Discovery Set, try all the scents over a few days, then pick your favourite. When you order your Starter Pack, the full price of the Discovery Set is deducted automatically — so you try everything for free. No codes, no forms.

[H3]
Can I buy just the refill without the case?

Yes — if you already have a case, just order a refill on its own. If you don't have a case yet, we strongly recommend starting with the Starter Pack. The aluminium case protects the perfume, makes it portable, and is a one-time purchase. After that, refills alone is all you need.

[H3]
Are returns free?

Yes, completely free. If you're not happy with your purchase, contact us within 14 days of receiving your order — including gently used perfumes — and we'll arrange the return and refund you in full.

Do the perfumes expire or have a shelf life?

Unopened, they last many years. Once opened, 3–5 years if stored properly. The aluminium case helps by shielding the vial from light and air - the two main causes of degradation.

[H2] FAQs

[H3]
Does it actually last 12 hours?

Yes, Ascent uses an extrait de parfum formula with up to 40% perfume oil. A standard Eau de Toilette contains 5–15%; the rest is alcohol that evaporates within hours. More oil means the scent stays on your skin and releases slowly all day. The chemistry is real.

[H3]
Why buy a 20 ml refill instead of a regular 150 ml bottle?

Because you're paying for what you actually wear. A 20 ml Ascent refill contains the same amount of pure fragrance oil as a 100 ml Eau de Toilette, it's just not diluted with alcohol. No heavy glass, no oversized box, no brand markup. And when you want a different scent, you swap the refill, not buy an entirely new bottle.

[H3]
How does the cashback on the Discovery Set work?

Order the Discovery Set, try all the scents, then pick your favourite. When you order your Starter Pack, the full price of the Discovery Set is deducted automatically, so you try everything for free. No codes, no forms.

[H3]
Can I buy just the refill without the case?

Yes, if you already have a case, just order a refill on its own. If you don't have a case yet, we strongly recommend starting with the Starter Pack. The aluminium case protects the perfume, makes it portable, and is a one-time purchase. After that

[H3] Quote

Three friends. One frustration.

In 'premium' perfumes, the bottle often costs more than what's inside, with as little as 1% of the price going to the ingredients.

That's the truth Bernhard, Boris, and Max couldn't ignore. Three friends since childhood. They refused to accept an industry that spends more on disposable packaging than on what actually touches your skin. So they built the opposite.

[IMG: Three Ascent founders standing together against a textured wall.]

Built for life. Not landfill.

Ascent was built differently. Crafted from aerospace-grade aluminum, our durable case is designed to last a lifetime, not to be thrown away. The case is designed to travel with you and protects your perfume from light to preserve optimal quality. It’s built to be endlessly refilled and lets you switch scents to match every mood and destination.

[H3] Invest once. Refill endlessly.

[H3] One system. Endless scents.

What’s inside matters most.

Rethinking packaging allows us invest in what actually touches your skin. We work directly with master perfumers in Grasse to create fragrances made with exceptional ingredients and designed to last all day. Every scent is gender-free, vegan, and crafted with an organic ethanol base.

[H2] More scent. Less waste.

Traditional perfume is built around heavy, disposable bottles that are repurchased again and again. Ascent removes the most wasteful part with a reusable system.Your first order includes the complete system: case, refill, and spray. After that, you only replace the refill and reuse your existing case and spray. Each 20 ml refill contains the same amount of perfume oil as a traditional 100 ml eau de toilette while using less than 1 gram of plastic, resulting in up to 98% less plastic per equivalent fragrance use.

Build your refillable system

From manufacturing to your door, every Ascent order is carbon-offset through verified projects.
