‘Aboard a floral tapestry’

Sink into folds of Mimosa, Saffron and Iris supplied by Aesop’s latest fragrance; Gloam Eau De Parfum. This sumptuous blend of florals and spice was inspired by the introspective turn that is facilitated by the day bed or divan.

AESOP - GLOAM

Fragrance Notes: Mimosa, Saffron and Iris.

The opening of Gloam begins with a soft, powdery touch with an undertone of spice and as a fan of spicy scents, I was excited to see how the dry-down would play out.

For me personally, I tend to steer away from fragrances that feel powdery or too floral, as I tend to find them overpowering at times however, the silage of Gloam felt quite intimate and one that felt more like a ‘skin’ scent, one that could only be smelt when up close to the person wearing it.

Because of this, I would say that Gloam is quite a ‘safe’ fragrance.

One that doesn’t command too much attention or fill up an entire room so if you’re a lover of fragrances that are quite understated, I would definitely try out Aesop - Gloam.

In terms of the performance, I have to say, I was disappointed with its longevity as it faded quite quickly after only having lasted on my skin for just over 1 hour. Having said that, it was a pleasant fragrance to wear and I would say this is classed as ‘unisex’ and is better suited for daytime. To find out more about Aesop - Gloam, click here.
