Rozu

by Barnabé Fillion

Aēsop Rozu is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Barnabé Fillion. Rozu opens with Rose, Shiso, Bergamot, and Bitter Orange, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Guaiac Wood, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Musk. Aēsop's Rozu carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Rozu is a divisive, opinionated take on rose that either delivers a calming, woody freshness or a screechy disappointment, depending on your skin chemistry and batch luck. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent with a heavy dose of 'zen' for some, and faint whispers for others.

Its subtle projection and calming woody-rose profile make it suitable for casual wear or intimate dates. While some find its performance fleeting, its natural, non-synthetic vibe could work in an office if applied lightly, though it's likely too understated for formal events.

About

Opens with an intriguing, aromatic blend of green shiso and zesty bergamot, quickly followed by a nuanced, almost dry rose. As it settles, creamy sandalwood and earthy patchouli emerge, grounding the floral heart. A touch of smoky guaiac wood and clean musk adds depth, resulting in a contemplative, woody-floral skin scent with a dark edge.
