Aesop Le Marais

Yet another of Aesop's splendid shops, this time in Paris' Marais district. With a peaceful courtyard visible through windows to the back and ingenious use of industrial elements for shelving, this space delivers a memorable environment out of all proportion to its compact dimensions.

"There is also a tendency for odour terms to refer to the sources from which odours emanate - as in "tapir odour" - and not to some essential quality of the odour itself, such as pungency. The reason for this would seem to be the widely perceived intrinsic association of odours with their sources"
