Inspired by the scents of the Mediterranean, this roll-on natural perfume is hand-blended in small batches. Named after the goddesses of the ancient world, Ashera's floral scent is the intoxicating smell of jasmine on a humid night.
This fragrance is part of the special exhibition collection accompanying Aphrodite: The Making of a Goddess on display at the Ashmolean Museum 8 October 2026 to 11 April 2027.
Led by the unmistakable allure of jasmine, Ashera is a floral scent evoking communality, care, familiarity, and tenderness. Perfect for moments of reflection or joyful connection.
This 10ml roll-on perfume is crafted using 100% natural plant extracts including essential oils and resins. The oil-based formula lingers softly on your skin, offering a scent experience that evolves with you throughout the day.
How to Wear: Apply to pulse points like wrists, neck, and behind the ears. Enhance your scent story by layering Ashera with our other Alashiya perfumes. Each fragrance harmonizes beautifully, creating a signature scent all your own.
No synthetic chemicals. No preservatives. Just nature, bottled.
Alashiya is named after the oldest recorded name for Cyprus, where some of the earliest perfumery in the world was found. Archaeological discoveries revealed vessels once filled with resins, flowers, and oils used in ceremony, healing, and daily life.
Their natural oil-based perfume collection is named after goddesses of the ancient world; Anat, Astarte, Ashera. Figures who presided over beauty, desire, and the sacred across the Ancient Near East, their stories would eventually merge into Aphrodite, whose cult was born in Cyprus.
