Aesop

Sensorial skin, hair & body care
Fragrance

Aesop builds rituals — not routines. Their formulations for skin, hair and body are precise and sensorial, and their stores are living design objects, often feeling closer to galleries than retail. Add in private consultations and select facial appointments, and it becomes a full-care experience: thoughtful, tactile, and deeply considered.

  • Certified B Corporation (verified standards for social + environmental performance, transparency, accountability).

  • Vegan + Leaping Bunny approved (no animal testing; cruelty-free certification).

  • Formulation philosophy: ingredient-led, science-backed, launches driven by genuine client needs—quality over noise.

  • Sustainable packaging roadmap: increasing recycled content (rPET) and working toward more recyclable/reusable solutions; refill trials have been tested in select locations.

What makes them unique?

Beauty isn’t seasonal—it’s situational. For Aesop, the best moment to buy is when you’re:

  • Resetting your everyday rituals (bathroom, sink, bedside, desk)

  • Building a host / guest moment (hand wash + balm, room spray, incense—instant atmosphere)

  • Gifting (Aesop is basically a universal yes—especially around holiday sets)

Where it fits in your routine

The stores (design as a brand language): Aesop’s spaces are built like small architectural worlds—each one site-specific, often created with local designers, and meant to be experienced slowly. It’s retail that feels more like a gallery than a shop.

  1. In-store expertise + elevated service: Many locations offer Private Consultation, and select stores offer Facial Appointments—treatments that begin with a skin consultation and are tailored to your needs.

  2. Self + space essentials: Beyond skin, hair, and body care, Aesop’s home fragrance and atmospheric products turn everyday routines (and rooms) into ritual.
