Aesop Discontinues Old Fragrance
Aesop has reimagined its iconic fragrance collections with the launch of 8 new Othertopias fragrances. These aren't just upgraded formulas—they deliver a completely new olfactory experience. Meanwhile, some of the brand's older fragrances have unexpectedly sparked a buying frenzy. The new collection includes ÉKRĒO, MIĒLET, ORA, EIDESIS, ERĒMIA, GLACIER, KARST, and TACIT.
The brand officially defines Othertopias as a new chapter in its fragrance line—new formulas that directly elevate the previous scents.
🔸 Old favorites trigger a stocking-up craze
Aesop has fully refreshed its fragrance lineup, but four original versions—Marrakech, Miraceti, Ouranon, and Gloam Eau de Parfum—are still available, sparking a rush among longtime fans to stock up.
🔸 How Othertopias differs from the old versions
The new Othertopias line focuses on "fixative power," significantly boosting longevity. The scents sit closer to the skin, last deeper and longer, and feel more pronounced in texture.
🔸 A buying guide to the 8 Othertopias fragrances
The new collection spans fresh, floral, woody, and amber notes, with clear counterparts to the previous line—making it easy for longtime fans to find their match:
| New Fragrance | Corresponding Old Fragrance |
| ORA Eau de Parfum (rose, shiso, jasmine) | Rōzu Eau de Parfum |
| EIDESIS Eau de Parfum (Japanese citrus, vetiver, sweet fennel) | Tacit Eau de Parfum |
| GLACIER Eau de Parfum (watermelon ketone, sage, pink pepper) | Karst Eau de Parfum |
| TACIT Eau de Parfum (cedar, hinoki, thyme) | Hwyl Eau de Parfum |
🔸 New for 2026: the all-new fragrance ÉKRĒO
Crafted by Aesop's longtime collaborating perfumer Céline Barel, ÉKRĒO is the true new addition to the line. Built on a base of lavender, rosemary, and geranium—forming an "allegorist accord"—it adds nutmeg for a transparent, airy feel contrasted with warm spice, embodying the wabi-sabi philosophy of embracing imperfection.
🔸 Highlights of the new bottle design
Othertopias features the classic amber glass bottle with an elongated silhouette, a rounded arched base, embossed typography, and a debossed logo on the box. The sprayer easily detaches for bottle recycling, reflecting the brand's eco-conscious approach, with refills expected in the future.
