Founded in Paris in September 2018 by Géraldine Archambault, Essential Parfums was born after thirty years in the fragrance industry. The house aims to make fine perfumery more accessible by removing the superfluous and giving perfumers a central role. It opened its first boutique in Le Marais in 2021, followed by its first location outside France in London in 2026.
Essential Parfums gives renowned perfumers, including Calice Becker, Quentin Bisch and Anne Flipo, complete creative freedom and features their names on every bottle. The compositions prioritise a high proportion of naturally derived ingredients, sustainable raw materials and beetroot alcohol. Refillable bottles and reduced packaging complete this understated aesthetic.
Essential Parfums fragrances are all sold out at Fragsplit right now.
