Aesop has long defined its stores through scent, material, and silence. Yet the brand has no dedicated object that carries this sensory identity into the home.
Amber Mist extends Aesop’s philosophy — translating its architectural calm into a personal ritual.
Inspired by Aesop’s sensory minimalism, Amber Mist reinterprets the diffuser as a quiet ritual. Instead of adding features, it focuses on the poetry of materials — glass, heat, and scent as a single gesture of calm.
The name “Amber Mist” reflects both the warm hue of resin and the ephemeral nature of fragrance.

Form Exploration
The form takes cues from river stones — softened by time yet grounded in weight.
Subtle asymmetry and carved edges express natural erosion, balancing organic calm with engineered precision.

The diffuser releases scent through silent warmth — no switches, no screens. A faint amber light glows as mist rises, turning a daily routine into a meditative moment.
