Founded in Istanbul in 2016 by brothers Bilen and Varol Besen, Régalien creates niche fragrances inspired by Turkey’s heritage and the city’s cultural blend. Its collections span Ottoman heritage and hammam rituals, followed by the launch of Hidden Origins, centred around iconic locations in Anatolia.

Régalien creates Parfum Extracts shaped by oud, amber, musk, Turkish rose, coffee and hammam traditions. The house works with perfumers and fragrance composition houses, including MG Gülçiçek and Firmenich. Its bottles evoke imperial treasures through a refined and precious aesthetic.
