A fragrant fable of woody, spicy, ambery notes evoking a timber- framed mirror, readied for self-reflection.
Evoking Eidesis invites us to question what lies beyond surface reflections. A fable about authenticity told through scent, it creates an impression of iridescence with brilliant notes of Neroli, Petitgrain and Black Pepper, grounded by earthy Sandalwood.
All of this is contained in a newly redesigned bottle with an embossed Aesop insignia, and a pleasingly textured cap inspired by basalt—a rock on which our hometown of Melbourne was quite literally built
All Aesop formulations are vegan containing no animal derived ingredients. We only use ingredients with a proven record of safety and efficacy.
Rooted in our long-standing reverence for literature and our namesake Aesop—the ancient Greek fabulist—the inspirations and emotions behind our fragrances are distilled into fable-like poems to pose questions through scent.
While no story should be judged by its cover, the Fragrant Fables arrive in pleasingly tactile bottles, with a new textured cap inspired by basalt rock native to our home city of Melbourne, and an embossed insignia on the amber glass.
Every online purchase of a 50ml and 100mL fragrance comes with a sample to try before you uncork the full bottle.
If you no longer wish to keep your Aesop packaging, please follow local waste and recycling guidance. Recycling options and accepted materials vary by location. Where facilities exist, we recommend separating packaging components and recycling them through the appropriate collection system.
Aesop also offers a Rinse and Return programme, allowing customers to return eligible empty packaging to participating stores for collection and transfer to specialist recycling partners. Availability varies by location. Please check your local store website for details.
How to use
Apply as desired to wrists and neck. Throughout the day, the aromatic profile will develop—fresh and sparkling at first, then warm and rich. Layer with complementary Aesop hand and body care formulations to enhance the aroma.
