A fragrant fable of luminous fresh, citrus, green notes that come together in hushed conversation to evoke the radiant refrain of dawn.
Tacit Truths is an intimation of morning’s first light, conjured by Yuzu, Vetiver and Fennel. A fable about trust told through scent, its bright citrus notes are tempered by the calming character of Basil, lending a sense of quiet intimacy.
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 trust.
"A declaration of trust
Comes with each dawn
Hopeful in its brightness
The first light of day
A silent promise
Each morning reaffirmed
Whatever comes
This radiant refrain
Consistent, steady, true
Unvoiced yet unwavering
Unseen yet unceasing
A companion in the quiet
How can trust illuminate our connections?"
How to use:
Apply as desired to wrists and neck. Throughout the day, the aromatic profile will develop, invigorating and crisp at first, then disclosing delicately spicy, green undertones. Layer with complementary Aesop hand and body care formulations to enhance the aroma.
