The Journey to BAB Perfume: A Scent of Memories, Love, and Discovery
Our story begins with a simple yet profound truth: the power of scent to evoke memories and emotions. For us , this realisation came to life during our trips to Tunis in July 2023, a visit that not only changed my perspective but also became the cornerstone of BAB Perfume.
As soon as I arrived in Tunis, I was captivated. The city had a heartbeat that resonated with me instantly. Its vibrant streets, lined with fragrant jasmine trees and bustling with warm, welcoming people, felt like a home I had somehow known forever. Tunis wasn’t just a destination—it was a rekindling of something deeply personal, a place where my soul felt rooted.
For my husband Souheil it was a year before summer 2022 while visiting a dear friend’s home, he was struck by the heady, intoxicating scent of jasmine. It wasn’t just a smell; it was an experience. As the fragrance filled the front yard, it unlocked a floodgate of cherished memories—of childhood summers, love, and family moments filled with laughter. It was then that he realized how much scents hold the power to transport us through time, bridging the gap between past and present.
This experience lingered in his mind long after he returned home. We began reflecting on how fragrances could become vessels of emotion, how they could tell stories and connect people to their happiest moments. We wanted to create something authentic, pure, and deeply personal—a brand that celebrated the beauty of natural scents and their ability to stir the soul.
And so, BAB Perfume was born.
At BAB Perfume, every creation is a tribute to authenticity and simplicity. We craft fragrances using natural, chemical-free ingredients, inspired by the timeless charm of Tunisian attars and the universal language of scent. Our journey started with jasmine, but it has grown to embrace a diverse array of fragrances, each with its own story and purpose.
The name "BAB" itself reflects the journey—a gateway to nostalgia, connection, and celebration of life's beauty. It’s a doorway to the past while grounding you in the present, reminding us that our roots and memories shape who we are.
Starting this business has been about more than just creating fragrances. It has been about building bridges—between cultures, between moments in time, and between our customers and their most cherished memories.
As we grow, we remain committed to keeping BAB Perfume as authentic as the day it began, driven by love, passion, and the belief that the simplest things often hold the most profound beauty.
So here’s to jasmine and to the countless memories yet to be bottled. This is just the beginning, and we are so grateful to have you join us on this journey.
With love,
Alde & Sou
