Practical information

Founded in 1803 by Jean-Vincent Bully, Officine Universelle Buly perpetuates and reinvents a distinctively French approach to beauty.

The Maison won prestigious awards at the Expositions Universelles of 1867 and 1878, recognizing the famous Parisian perfumer for its legendary formulations with cutting-edge technology: in 2014, the Officine created the world’s first water-based perfumes. Its stores are temples of exquisite architecture, stocking 900 beauty products, where a sense of service and personalization (such as embossing, folding, calligraphy and engraving) all contribute to a wondrous bespoke experience.
