Founder and CEO, Tonya Kidd-Beggs
ABOUT US
sense of smell is the most powerful one we have. Closely linked to memory and mood, what we smell has the ability to stir us, move us and immerse us in an instant. Established by founder Tonya Kidd-Beggs in Northern Ireland, STORIES Parfums was created to transport the mind and transform the emotions.
OUR STORY
STORIES Parfums is an olfactory ode to the memories that have shaped founder Tonya’s life. It was only after a transformative trip to the heart of perfume-making in Grasse, France, that she realised the power of fragrance to heal, release and transcend tragedy. Spurred on by this discovery, STORIES Parfums was born. Using the best raw materials and time- honoured traditional methods, Tonya created eachfragrance to capture a moment and unlock a memory significant to her. Each bottle is a narrative woven together by a carefully orchestrated balance of notes; as our name suggests, it is a story in aromatic form. STORIES Parfums is a gender inclusive brand.
OUR MISSION
Stories make up who we are, and we think that life is richer the more you have to tell. Our fragrances were created by one woman in homage to her stories, but they are just the beginning; as with all good stories, they need a middle and an end. We like to think of it as though we picked up the pen, now it’s up to you to write the rest.
What will your story be?
STORIES Nº.01
As I sat surrounded by the tiny brown bottles of the Perfumer’s Organ in a village in the French Riviera, I was confronted by some of my most painful memories.
Each scent I inhaled illuminated the shadows of a difficult past and marked the beginning of a healing journey.
STORIES Nº.01 tells the uplifting story of sorrow transformed into beauty, of the dark yielding to the light.
STORIES Nº.02
Days in my grandfather’s garden were spent among his plants. In the greenhouse, rose bushes stood among orange trees, on which blossom and fruit grew in tandem. Pots of patchouli lined the patio; the aroma from rubbing their green leaves on my wrists. The scent of the stream drew me barefoot into its water. I paddled under the watchful gaze of my father and grandfather, their faces obscured by tobacco pipe smoke.
STORIES Nº.02 is an invitation to walk among the flowers, shed your shoes at the river and recover that which has been lost.

SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVITY
At STORIES Parfums we believe passionately in beauty without boundaries. While our story may have started with deep roots in traditional methods and ancient craftsmanship, our ethos is that of a thoroughly modern brand. Intuitive, inclusive and always accessible, we will never define our fragrances by gender or name; we
will never tell your story for you.
At the heart of our brand is a deep respect for the planet we live on, and we want to make sure that the place we call home doesn’t simply survive but
thrives. This true sense of connectivity is why we’re committed to ensuring that we are as sustainable as possible.
We keep plastic in our packaging to a minimum. Our glass bottles come in a range of sizes: 1.5ml, 15ml, 30ml and 100ml. With the exception of
the 1.5ml, the bottles are refillable, encouraging customers to have a long-standing relationship with our products. The labels on our perfume bottles are a matt white calcium carbonate derived from marble mining waste (80%) together with recycled HDPE (20%). The material can be recycled in the conventional recycling stream.
The new refillable and recyclable packaging for the coveted Hand and Body Wash and Lotion is another step on our sustainability journey, We continue to work hard to take our
sustainability initiatives further, step by step. The new black Aluminium bottles of the Hand and Body Collection in 500ml are refillable and the 60ml travel
size Aluminium tubes are infinitely recyclable. Our newly launched Perfumed Candle trio are also refillable.
DEFINING THE NEW NICHE
We have positioned ourselves to be forerunners in defining the new niche. We are passionate about bringing luxury and sustainability together and will continue to find ways to do so.
CRUELTY FREE
STORIES Parfums is a cruelty-free brand. None of our products or raw ingredients are tested on animals (by us or a third party acting on our behalf) and we do not sell in any countries that require animal testing.
