Horace is the only Parisian boutique where you can find all the “Grooming essentials for guys”.

This is how Horace defines itself, a men's cosmetics brand founded by two trendy boys, Marc Briant-Terlet and Kim Mazzilli, tired of not finding any skincare products corresponding to generation Z: pro-inclusivity and diversity, natural and at reasonable prices.

After successfully trying their hand at online commerce and two pop-up stores later, including one in the Marais, the two founders of this “complete, simple, fun and effective range of men’s care” decided to open a “real” boutique in the heart of the Marais.

Known for seeking the opinion of its community in the development of its products, from the basics to the most sophisticated such as shaving gel (€9), mattifying cream, watermelon toothpaste (€6), including beard oil (€11) or eye contour serum (€16) etc. the tandem opens a store to finally meet their fans IRL (In Real Life: in real life).

In this new space dedicated to men who claim to like taking care of themselves, we find products benefiting from minimal packaging and above all formulas which come close to 100% ingredients of natural origin.

Another plus, the prices which are much more accessible than the classic green brands and which make you want to think you are a boy.

The best tattoo parlors in Marais

Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors. Although it has become democratized, now affecting all profiles and concerning one in five French people, including 16% women compared to 10% men, it still remains taboo due to its definitive and transgressive nature.
