Launched in 2022 by Aesop and crafted by perfumer Barnabé Fillion, Stoic is a Woody Spicy fragrance that embodies the essence of Australian restraint and elegance. The composition begins with an aromatic freshness, balanced by a warm spicy heart that adds depth without overpowering. As it settles into an amber and balsamic base, the scent evokes a sense of grounded confidence, much like the brand's own commitment to simplicity and quality since its founding in 1987.

Application Tips
Stoic's aromatic opening fades within an hour, so apply two sprays to ensure the woody and spicy base continues to develop throughout the day. It reads best close to skin rather than diffusing widely, making it ideal for daytime wear in cooler settings.

Founding perfumer · 14 fragrances

Barnabé Fillion trained in photography before pursuing a thesis on synesthesia and studying naturopathy, phytotherapy, and aromatherapy. He worked as Aesop's in-house perfumer for a decade, creating all of the brand's fragrances and its first candles, including the reimagined Marrakech Intense Eau de Toilette. His 'Biography' series with artist Anicka Yi reconstructed the imagined scent-personalities of historical figures, and he later founded Arpa, a multi-platform project combining scent, music, and architecture.
