The BASTILLE Brand
Launched in 2020, Bastille is on the move to compose a new tomorrow. Their fragrances strike a balance between being sustainable and desirable, between tradition and the future, between synthetic and natural, feminine and masculine, powerful and subtle, experienced and remembered...
These fragrances have the originality of being free. They are true to the quality of the raw materials chosen, their creativity and their transparency: 95% natural ingredients, 5% clean synthesis, no additives, vegan and made in France.
The BASTILLE Story
Bastille, a perfumer of freedom and a transparent, natural and French fragrance house, is run by Sophie Maisant and Pascal Hyafil, two veterans of the perfume industry who met over 20 years ago at Chanel.
Today, their shared desire is to change the face of perfumery by taking up the challenge of transparency, naturalness and spontaneity, and by embracing olfactory freedom.
The owners of BASTILLE
Sophie Maisant, a Franco-Londoner and veteran of the luxury goods and cosmetics industry, found in 2020 a Parisian fragrance brand that perfectly matched her principles and values.
As a mother of two and driven by a desire to be an agent of change, she wanted to contribute to a solution rather than to the problem. She did so by turning to a new perfumery - focused on sustainability, transparency and freedom.
That's how she embarked on her entrepreneurial adventure, acquiring Bastille in early 2022. She was soon joined by Pascal Hyafil, a friend and former colleague with whom she shared the same vision. Together, they are now writing the history of Bastille.
