Questions brands ask us

What is private label perfume?

A perfume made by a manufacturer and sold under your brand name. You own the brand and packaging; we develop the fragrance and produce it. It is how most fashion and retail brands launch fragrance.

Do we own the fragrance formula?

You get exclusive rights to use the fragrance for your brand. The formula itself stays with the perfumer, which is industry standard, and is held on file for repeat production.

Can we start with a smaller quantity to test the market?

Yes — using catalogue bottles, minimums start around 1,000 units per fragrance. Custom glass raises the minimum because of mould costs.

How many rounds of changes are included?

Three rounds of fragrance modifications are included in development. Further rounds are possible and priced per round.

Are your products IFRA compliant?

Every formula is checked against the current IFRA standards and labelled to Indian regulations. Export labelling can be prepared for your target markets.

How long does reorder production take?

Once a line is live, repeat orders typically ship in 3–4 weeks, subject to glass availability.

Do you make fragrance for brands outside India?

Yes. Our products are sold in 14 countries; we can produce to export specifications and coordinate shipping.
