Aesop Incense

Aesop Incense Online

Aesop's incense range brings the same layered fragrance approach as its candles and perfumes to a stick format, sitting alongside them as one of three ways to bring Aesop's scent profiles into a room. The range includes Aesop Kagerou Aromatique Incense, with notes of vetiver, sandalwood and igusa, and Aesop Murasaki Aromatique Incense, a rich, warm scent built on clove, cinnamon and hinoki that fills a room and lingers. A third scent, Aesop Sarashina Aromatique Incense, pairs sandalwood, clove and cinnamon across 33 sticks per box, though it's currently out of stock — check back if you're after that specific scent.

Using Aesop Incense at Home

Aesop's incense sticks have a distinctive square shape and are designed to burn slowly and evenly, releasing scent gradually rather than all at once. They're a lighter, more occasional alternative to a candle if you want fragrance in a room without it running for hours, and suit spaces used for winding down, such as a bedroom or a spot set aside for reading or quiet time. Unlike a candle, incense doesn't need to burn for a set period to release its scent, so it's a useful option if you only want fragrance in a room for a short while. Each box contains multiple sticks, so a single purchase tends to last through a number of individual sessions rather than being a one-off burn, which makes incense a lower-commitment way to try an Aesop scent than a full-size candle.

Aesop Incense as Gifts

Like the rest of Aesop's home fragrance range, the incense sticks come in understated packaging that makes them a considered gift, particularly for someone who already uses Aesop. If you're building out a broader gift, they pair well with a candle or fragrance from the wider Aesop fragrance range, or with a hand cream or body wash from Aesop hand and body care if you want to build a small gift set around a single scent. If you'd prefer a fragrance option that doesn't involve a flame or smoke, Aesop room spray covers similar scent territory with more regular availability.
