Aesop Rue Vieille du Temple store interior with shelving display

What is now the largest Aesop store in the city echoes the 1970s science-fiction forms devised by Oscar Niemeyer for the headquarters of the Parti Communiste Français, with the front-of-house fittings recalling the carved concrete constructs of the institution's main hall. Deeper within, cave-like confines envelop visitors from floor to ceiling, echoing its iconic underground chambers.

Amid the shelves of skin, hair and body care formulations is a Fragrance Armoire, which offers an aromatic interlude from the everyday via the varied olfactory pleasures of Aesop fragrances. The structure’s streamlined outer doors bely the complexity of the microcosm within, including an Infusion Chamber where customers can imbue an item of clothing with their chosen aroma.

Beyond and above, Aesop's first permanent Treatment Rooms in Paris offer further respite from the outside world, with dark paint drinking in the daylight and fabric panels deadening the street noise. In these secluded sanctums, Aesop-trained Facial Therapists perform treatments that exemplify Aesop’s guiding principles of creating efficacious formulations that both support skin health and provide sensory pleasure. Customers leave the premises with a personalised care regimen, to ensure continued benefits.
