Brûmée was founded by pharmacologist Dr. Anne-Claire Walch. Anne-Claire grew up in the charming town of Grasse, whose fragrant streets have been considered the historic home of traditional perfumery since the 16th century. Here, surrounded by the natural aromas of Provence, Anne-Claire's fascination with scents and perfumes was born.
Her research in pharmacology led her to explore the relationship between skin and fragrances and their effects on our health, particularly the effects of traditional scents. Today's perfumes largely use synthetic fragrances and contain up to 80% alcohol, which can be extremely harmful when applied to the skin. Anne-Claire was shocked that, in a world where clean beauty and natural cosmetics are rightly so valued, people continue to apply alcohol and other toxins to their skin. And so she set out to change this...
Brûmée was developed to improve the way perfume is formulated, manufactured, and worn. Anne-Claire collaborated with experts in laboratories across France to develop a revolutionary formula based on ultrapure water instead of alcohol. The formula also uses natural fragrances from Grasse and regenerating organic oils instead of harsh and artificial chemicals to create our signature scents.
