Stargate

• Evening
• Everyday
• Work

Stargate brings out a feeling of clarity and projection, with a contrast between freshness and warmth. This is a modern composition with plenty of contour, one that never stays linear.

It opens on a bright, radiant freshness, almost metallic, that grabs your attention straight away. Then the fragrance becomes more floral and textured, with a softness that balances the luminous opening.

Over time, the whole warms up, with woods and musks settling the fragrance and giving it a more embracing presence. The freshness stays in the background, softer and better blended.

This is a luminous, modern fragrance that plays on energy, contrast and an almost 'electric' feel.

Bey is a French niche perfume house founded in 2024 by Raf Bey, who is also behind Librery Parfums and is creative director of Phenom. The name is no accident: in the Ottoman Empire, bey was a title held by dignitaries, a noble and quiet authority built on dignity rather than display. That is exactly the spirit of the house. For its Renaissance collection, Raf Bey entrusted the compositions to two perfumers, Chris Maurice and Nathalie Feisthauer, with a clear brief: create perfumes that tell a story without needing to shout. Six unisex creations, with no assigned gender, each inhabiting a different atmosphere. Abyssoria explores mineral, saline depths. Cachemire Blanc wraps you in soft, textile warmth. Excursion summons spice markets and oriental pastries through a remarkably precise orange blossom and almond accord. What unites these fragrances is the same restraint in expression and the same ambition in materials. The bottle follows the same logic: sober and pared back, designed so that nothing distracts from the fragrance itself. A brand-new house, led by someone who already knows his craft very well.
