Stephanie de Bruijn

The House of Stephanie de Bruijn is a French perfume house created in Paris in 2008 by Stephanie de Bruijn, a perfumer who learned her craft in Grasse, the historic center of French perfumery, over two decades in the trade. She opened her Paris atelier to offer bespoke perfume, then built a collection of essences de parfum drawn from some of the rarest raw materials sourced around the world. The house identity rests on traditional French perfumery and a commitment to high-quality ingredients, the kind of approach that treats composition as a slow, exacting art.

The line is plush and elegant, with a soft gourmand edge. Juicy peach and bright Italian lemon and bergamot open the compositions, settling into creamy sandalwood with spice, gentle sweetness, woods, and florals filling out the body. The character is refined rather than loud, built for closeness and quality. Cashmere is a natural introduction for its soft, enveloping warmth, while Montaigne and Saint Honore and Le Sully, named with a Parisian sensibility, explore the house from different angles. French tradition rendered in rare materials.
