Starting in the late 18th century, the famed Jean-Vincent Bully, established in 1803 on rue Saint-Honoré in Paris with his perfumes and scented vinegars.
At the turn of the 19th century, perfumers were still the heirs of the master-craftsmen from the Ancien RĂ©gime, and the keepers of their trade secrets. The vogue of perfumes followed in the wake of a fresh openness to the world and to its novel, sometimes exotic flowers.
l’Officine Universelle Buly offers the most beautiful products that draw on the most innovative cosmetic techniques and contain natural ingredients. Dreamed up in Paris and formulated in a French laboratory, these products feed on the latest advances of contemporary cosmetics, all the while remaining true to the teachings of ancient recipes.
Inspired by the cosmetic and medicinal uses of plant oils in Ancient Greece, this green scented body oil is a lovely dry oil. It sinks into the skin quickly, comes in four flavors and is ideal to nourish and hydrate the skin, especially skin that tends to feel dry. I am loving it (especially the La Rose De Damas) and the authentic packaging (190 ML|€ 38,00)
The pomade concrete is a purifying and hydrating balm that has a triple effect. It cleanses, moisturizes, and protects the skin from dryness. What I like about the balm is that it possesses antibacterial, anti-viral and antiseptic properties. Use in on the hand or feet any time of the time. Don’t forget to warm the balm up between your hands before applying. (75g|€ 42,00)
