Aesop was born of a curious young man who was obsessed with quality, and deeply sensitive to the world around him. Dennis’s vision is manifested in every aspect of Aesop—from the quality of the ingredients used to formulate products, to the painstaking attention to detail evident in the design of each of the company’s stores around the world. Aesop has spawned many an imitation, which have served to demonstrate that while it may be possible to mimic Aesop’s outward character, its spirit cannot be pilfered or replicated.
Nourishing Through Intelligent Interactions
Established in Melbourne, Australia, in 1987, Aesop’s objective has always been to formulate skin, hair and body care products of the finest quality. It has since expanded to 27 markets around the globe, with each of its 247 signature stores having their own unique design. With their meticulous attention to detail, along with a unique exploration of the intersection of botanicals and science they create sensorial and highly efficacious formulations. Aesop became a B-Corp certified company in 2020.
