Collection: Daphne Bugey

"My mantra is to experience everything, feel everything, so that I can create from a place of freedom.

For Daphné Bugey, perfumery is an act of total freedom. A "modern adventurer" who knew her calling at the age of ten, Bugey has spent her life chasing the thrill of discovery—whether paragliding through the sky, kitesurfing the waves, or exploring the spiritual depths of Nepal and the organic farms of Japan. This relentless curiosity and her "rational side of excess" define her creative process, resulting in fragrances that are spontaneous, audacious, and fiercely independent.

A graduate of the prestigious ISIPCA, Bugey is celebrated for her ability to blend intellectual rigor with instinctive emotion. Her sabbatical year spent traveling the world—studying Ayurveda in India and contemporary art in Venice—infused her palette with a unique global perspective. She does not just create scents; she captures the energy of the wind and the stillness of meditation, making her one of the most versatile and evocative masters in contemporary perfumery.

Bugey continues to dominate the luxury market with bold, "Elixir" and "Intense" iterations of iconic scents. Her recent portfolio includes: Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Elixir, Dolce & Gabbana Q Eau de Parfum Elixir, Narciso Rodriguez All of Me Intense, Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Beyond, Acqua di Parma Gelsomino a Freddo Ambrosia, and Lancôme I Flamed a Rose.
