The duo Victoire de Taillac and Ramdane Touhami can lay claim to this concept celebrating the history of Buly, one of the oldest establishments in beauty care. Buly is first and foremost a decor, a gem inspired by the “officines” of yesteryear with a large walnut counter and varnished terra-cotta. Then there are treatments formulated in a French laboratory, benefitting from advances achieved in contemporary cosmetics yet loyal to ancient recipes. Finally, subtle water-based perfumes proposed in 8 fragrances, taking us elsewhere in time. Buly, 6 rue Bonaparte, Paris 6 (01 43 29 02 50).
