About Us

Most perfume brands invest heavily in disposable packaging, while only around 1% of the price goes into the ingredients. At Ascent, we challenge the status quo. By rethinking packaging, we reduce waste and focus on what truly matters: premium ingredients. Founded by three lifelong friends, our mission is to make high-quality perfume accessible, refillable, and sustainable. We aim to transform how products are made, used, and sold, for the benefit of customers and the planet.
