Hello, it’s nice to meet you! Our goal is in our name—to strip bare all the fluff and faff from perfume so you can try it on your own terms and make up your own mind, and to establish a bond with perfume designers who share your feelings, interests and experiences. Our story began in October 2017 when our founder Frankee found out her favourite perfume had been discontinued. After months of testing perfumes in every high street shop, she knew there had to be better way of finding her perfect scent. She spent the next year meeting perfumers, speaking to perfume buyers and designing a bespoke perfume service.  And Bare & Bond was born.
