One of three ‘Othertopias’ by Aesop, the Miraceti Eau de Parfum transports you to an ethereal, otherworldly realm — one that’s inspired by the serenity and savagery of the sea, with its heady swirling waves and peaceful yet desolate scape.

Bringing to life the works of authors like Joyce and Melville, this elixir is an ode to the violent history of the aquatic universe — marrying the scent of water-worn wood with resinous and spicy notes that incite imaginary adventures of fabled ships on far horizons. Rather than creating this rich and voluptuous olfactory offering for a specific person or gender, Aesop have forged this androgynous fragrance for the likes of seafarers, storytellers and idealists — blending the scent of warm whiskey barrels with the spicy smoke of a captain’s pipe.

Start by spraying it on your pulse points: behind the ears, wrists, ankles. It will rise in spirals around your body. Then spray a scent halo around your neck, head and hair.

A trio of fragrances inspired by places that blur the boundaries between the real and unreal, ‘Othertopias’ by Aesop transports the wearer to a faraway landscape, sparking a sense of wanderlust that throws the wearer into a passionate, unearthly reverie. Blending herbal and earthy accords with notes of musk, this aromatic elixir boasts a profile of black pepper and chilli leaf with labdanum, ambrite and styrax on a bed of myrrh, cedar and red seaweed.
