Beat Café

INSPIRATION

Beat Café catches Beat Generation’s revolutionary soul, evoking the scents of these iconic cafés and the intensity of Bob Dylan’s protest songs.

Unforgettable memories

United States, the ‘60s: a cultural movement, fated to change young people’s role in the society, is born. It is the Beat Generation, a creative whirl where art, writing and music become one voice: it is strong, rebellious and determined to change the course of history. This new vision, rising from breaking-off ideals, rejects all constraints and schemes imposed by society: Beat is the call to live a free life and to be fully aware of the moment. The café now is more than just a meeting place: it becomes the no-rules temple of a movement that abolishes every conformism as an imperative. New and clear visions on society, new sonorities and poetry expressions take shape in here, among leather couches, intoxicating drinks and inspiring fumes. A style which expresses itself through live performances and refined songwriting creations, vibrated by acoustic notes of guitar, strengthened by the intimist sound of harmonica. Bob Dylan is the voice of this creative, multifaceted whirl: his lyrics - inspired, intense, sophisticated - are lulled by a charming, poetic and deep sound; it is the unrestrainable voice of a revolution which is soaring through the wind.

From music notes to olfactory notes

Beat Café is the olfactory synthesis of an inspiring place. Spicy notes of black pepper and coriander are pure and biting like that generation’s protesting. An intense, intoxicating mix of Cognac, Tobacco, Cistus and Leather leads to a dimension of freedom and beatitude, where The Self blends with The Everything. In the dry down, Folk music’s harmonic progressions resonates in a woody-oriental accord where Cedarwood, Vetiver and Benzoin Balm play in unison, giving life to a sound that moves the hearts.
