A portable solution:

use strict;
use warnings;
use feature qw( say );

use Path::Class qw( dir file );

my $path = "/aaaa/bbbb/cccc/dddd/index.html";

my @dir_split = file($path)->dir->dir_list();
my $dir = dir(shift(@dir_split));
for (;;) {
   say $dir;
   last if !@dir_split;
   $dir = $dir->subdir(shift(@dir_split));
}

This could be shortened

my $dir;
for ( file($path)->dir->dir_list() ) {
   $dir = $dir ? $dir->subdir($_) : dir($_);
   say $dir;
}
[download]

Or mappified:

my $dir;
my @paths = map { $dir = $dir ? $dir->subdir($_) : dir($_) }
   file($path)->dir->dir_list();
[download]

Path::Class
