A new version of Hwyl (2017). Part of the repackaged/rebranded 2026 Fragrant Fables collection.

‘A fragrant fable of smoky, woody, spicy elements, transporting the mind to the serene depths of an ancient Hinoki Forest. Silently, Hwyl traces tranquil steps below the tree canopy as wreaths of mist whirl and eddy. A fable about serenity told through scent, the forest itself is brought alive by an accord of Cedar, Hinoki and Thyme, illuminated by resinous Frankincense. 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.’ – Aesop
