Discover the traditional challenging perfume from Aesop Rōzu – All gender fragrance

Aesop fragrances have always caught my attention through the unique combination of notes. The Rōzu scent is the perfect example of a modern twist of the rose.

The Rōzu Fragrance

The Rōzu perfume is a perfect balance between tenderness and intensity. Created using floral green notes, the perfume tells the story of a fearless woman who travelled the world. Rōzu is a unisex scent with a vegan formula, like all Aesop products. Each note plunges you into a new universe and tells a story of a time or place: floral, spicy, and earthy.

The Inspiration

The perfume is inspired by a modernist French nomad Charlotte Perriand. As she travelled the world, seeking to learn about traditions and lifestyles, she brought back many ideas and cultures. The scent tells the story of her life and how she challenged traditions. Constantly pushing the boundaries of elements, she was a true inspiration to Aesop.

The Notes

It is time to discover the magic behind this iconic scent.

Rōzu starts on a fresh, floral note with a trio of Rose, Pink Pepper, and Shiso. The luminous, sharp notes seem to balance each other out to perfection. Not soon after you have discovered this, a warmer, round burst of notes adds intensity and sensuality to the fragrance. The heart of the fragrance contains Rose, Guaiacwood, and Jasmine. The perfume ends more earthy, using Vetiver, Patchouli, and Myrrh. This adds a masculine touch to the scent and will help the perfume stick.

The Story

Rōzu is all about the unexpected balance between notes. The perfume reinterprets the classical rose and separates it from its traditional associations. Like Charlotte, it challenges cultures and traditions to create an innovative and unique scent. The fragrance reminds us of all the different elements in the flower's lifecycle. From the soil, it grows into the oxygen that keeps it alive.

My Review

I recently stepped into the Aesop store and was impressed by the minimalistic, modern design. On my way around, I discovered Rōzu, the EDP. The first thing that caught my eye was the beautiful color of the packaging—dressed in a deep pink shade with a brown glass bottle. I just had to give it a try.

On first impression, the perfume seemed intense. I tested it on my skin, and the fragrance revealed its true self. I love how the floral notes of rose and Jasmin smooth out the more vibrant touches of pink pepper and vetiver. Rozu is an excellent perfume for both men and women. The fragrance adapts depending on your skin's acidity, revealing a more floral or earthy note.

Thie fragrance stands out from the traditional scents and screams elegance. The Aesop fragrances are for those that want a perfume to match their personality. The scent lasted a long time and would work great all year round. I 100% recommend taking the time to discover this scent!

Before applying a scent, I make sure my skin is hydrated and not dry. From my experience, the longevity of the scent on hydrated skin is more. Another Aesop scent I love is Gloam which launched recently. (Reviewed here)

Release your inner world with the new Aesop Gloam Perfume

I am back with yet another perfume, but this scent is like nothing I have ever smelt before. Captivating, comforting and powerful.

The Scent

The Gloam perfume is a floral fragrance enhanced with rich notes of spices. Designed to be unisex, the unique scent will awaken your senses and evolve to fit your universe. Inspired by introspection, the scent plunges you into an imaginary landscape where the outer world seems to fade.

Some would say that Gloam is the scent of mindfulness. Taking a deeper plunge into yourself, a wave of peace and tranquillity takes over.

The Notes

The perfume opens up with a captivating blend of flowers and spice. The warm trio of Pink pepper, cardamom, and orange blossom set a warm and inviting aura around you. As the fragrance evolves, you discover the floral heart of Saffron, Jasmine Sambac, and Mimosa. Powerful yet, round, these notes are long-lasting and blend perfectly with the final facette of this scent. The perfume contains Iris, Patchouli, and Copaiba on a more powdery touch. The patchouli also adds an earthy touch, ideal for both men and women. Be sure to test it on the skin to get the full effect of the notes.

My Experience

I have often heard wonders of the fragrances from Aesop and recently got to try out a few scents. Today I am sharing my review of Gloam.

The Aesop scents remind me of smaller niche-type bouquets. Using a blend of unusual and unique ingredients, the perfume instantly activates your curiosity. I tried the scent during my work day, and my friends loved it. The perfume releases itself in bursts throughout the day. Not at all overpowering. This is a perfume for the floral lovers out there.

You can easily distinguish the notes of mimosa and Jasmin from the heart; this adds hours of life to the perfume. Gloam is a concentrated Eau de parfum, so I didn't have to retouch it during the day. This makes a beautiful scent for those who want to step out of the more known scents.
