Bare Fragrance

Everyone loves the smell of this candle!
Bare smell is the best!

Bare, like Iris Milk, is one of this house’s true standouts, refined, compliment-catching, and worth every drop. I say this as I await Santal with high hopes, but Bare has already proven herself. She’s the one I reach for when I want to be remembered.

I’ve been quietly collecting every bottle I can find on resale sites, and in doing so, I’ve done Esas a great service. Fewer bottles in circulation keeps the value high, it signals quality, fortitude, and protects the brand’s integrity. When a fragrance floods discount platforms, it often whispers of dissatisfaction and undercuts the company’s profit and prestige. But Bare? She deserves better.

Yes, I benefit, I get to enjoy this beauty at a steal. But I also preserve her mystique, her worth, her place in the pantheon of niche excellence. That’s girl power with a velvet glove: strategic, fragrant, and fiercely loyal.

I collect perfumes but rarely wear them unless they are very clean because I get migraines. I already ordered 4 scents but this is my absolute favorite. The most gorgeous scent, clean and refreshing I can wear everyday all day and no issue with headaches. Everybody should own BARE FRAGRANCE AND HAMAM!!!!

I love the Bare fragrance, smells fresh and clean.

This is such a sweet light clean scent. It reminds me of taking a shower after laying on the beach all day--it is the smell of squeaky clean sun warmed skin. I love it on its own but also for layering with other Esas scents.

Growing up in sunny Florida, Bare somehow manages to bottle what it feels like to reminisce on the nostalgia of my sun-kissed, beachside childhood and turns it into a fragrance. Astounding. It's a beautiful natural scent that is both musky and slightly floral.

I give it a 4 because the dry-down is slightly more floral and less musky-sweet than I would like, although it could just be my body chemistry. But it's still a gorgeous scent and I've just purchased my 3rd bottle! Highly recommend :)

I started with the scent discovery packs - I wanted a non-toxic perfume but am super sensitive to heavy scents. My two favorites are Bare and Gardenia & Lily, but Bare was the clear winner! It's so light and clean, just enough to make someone lean in closer to get a whiff. Perfection!

This is the perfect finishing touch to an outfit with an oversized cream cashmere sweater, a silk camisole, wide-leg blue denim, and hair slicked back into a ballerina bun. It’s effortless, fresh, clean, and sensual—the ultimate clean girl scent.

It opens with a light, sweet floral note of gardenia, while a hint of aromatic sage peeks through to add freshness and depth. The orris lends a soft powderiness that gives the whole scent a delicate, fluffy texture—like a whisper of silk.

The drydown is soft, sweet, and lightly musky—and I’m genuinely impressed that Esas was able to create such a musky effect using only botanicals, with no synthetic aroma chemicals. It’s a testament to their craft.

This scent is versatile, elevated, and intimately wearable—easily worthy of signature scent status.

Projection and sillage are a solid arm’s length or more, and longevity is excellent: about 6 hours with presence, followed by a soft skin scent that lingers for several more hours.
