A fragrant fable of woody, spicy, floral notes, conjuring the heady atmosphere of its namesake metropolis.
Marrakech Intense is inspired by the city’s intoxicating energy, its spices, hidden gardens and buzzing bazaars. A fable about curiosity told through scent, where an accord of Ylang Ylang, Neroli and Clove transports the wearer to sun-baked alleys, while the heady presence of Jasmine invites exploration.
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.

"Marrakech
A restless labyrinth
Of vivid, heated hues
A door left ajar
Leads to a haven
Of jasmine blossom
Hidden from the wanderer
That drifts like a zephyr
Led by the senses
Winding from byways
Into the souk
A mystery; alive
Where might curiosity lead us?"
