Unforeseen Aer Eau de Parfum
A fragrant fable of fresh, aromatic, mineral character, taking the mind to rugged, wind-blown heights.
A fragrant fable of fresh, aromatic, mineral character, taking the mind to rugged, wind-blown heights.
Unforeseen Aer brings a cool gust of freshness, in an unconventional take on a fougère perfume. A fable about imperfection told through scent, it creates an accord of Pure Air via Geranium, Lavandin and Rosemary, grounded by the textured warmth of Nutmeg.
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.
This ingredient list is subject to change. Prior to use, please refer to the product label for the most accurate information.
All Aesop products are vegan. We only use ingredients with a proven record of safety, efficacy and sustainability.

Rooted in our long-standing reverence for literature and our namesake Aesop—the ancient Greek fabulist—the inspirations and emotions behind our fragrances are distilled into fable-like poems to pose questions through scent.

While no story should be judged by its cover, the Fragrant Fables arrive in pleasingly tactile bottles, with a new textured cap inspired by basalt rock native to our home city of Melbourne, and an embossed insignia on the amber glass.

Every online purchase of a 50ml and 100mL fragrance comes with a sample to try before you uncork the full bottle.
Many of the Aesop product packaging components are recyclable. We recommend disassembling (removing product labels, pumps and caps) and sorting the components. Product bottles and jars may be recycled. Product labels, pumps, pipettes and caps should be placed in the waste bin. Pumps and pipettes may also be reused. Paper packaging is made from FSC® certified stock. Please remove this component and place in the recycling bin.
How to use
Apply as desired to wrists and neck. Throughout the day, the aromatic profile will develop—from bracing mineral freshness to earthy spice. Layer with complementary Aesop hand and body care formulations to enhance the aroma.

The aroma
A gust of freshness
The Fabulist AccordPure Air
Flowing with notes of Geranium, Lavandin and Rosemary.
Nutmeg
Conferring a nuanced, textured warmth.
A cautious air
Left the world unmoved
Fearing disorder
Yet within, an instinct
To disrupt the stillness
Impossible to contain
It scattered leaves
Danced across branches
Made music through crooked forms
Tumbling, turning
Energised and orderless
Revelling in its flaws
How can change enrich us?
