Founded in 2023 by Alice Gensse and Pierre-Junior Menana—two former law students who met while preparing for the bar exam—Notes de Bas de Paje is a Parisian niche fragrance house built around the concept of olfactory storytelling. The brand’s name, a play on the French word for "footnotes," reflects its philosophy: just as footnotes add depth and context to a text, its perfumes serve as sensory annotations to lived experiences and personal memories.
