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.

Fable: A fable about authenticity.
"The aged mirror
Tells but one truth
Skimming the surface
A cursory gaze
An illusory reality
Complexities unobserved
Yet behind the mirror
Deeper meanings
Begin to emerge
The many aspects
Of the authentic self
An intimate encounter
What lies beyond surface reflections?"
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.
