Production services

What we manufacture, and the commercial frame each format carries.

Contract manufacturing fragrances

Where contract manufacturing ends and brand duty begins. Covers the split of responsibility between manufacturer, brand and importer, what documentation transfers with a batch, and why storage and in-market distribution are arranged by the brand rather than by us.

Private label perfume manufacturing

The full production chain under your own label: fragrance selection or development, bottle and closure sourcing, compatibility testing, filling, quality release and export preparation. Start here if you are comparing manufacturers rather than a specific product.

Perfume manufacturing

Eau de parfum and eau de toilette production in 30, 50 and 100 ml. Minimum order is 1,000 units per fragrance and per bottle model. Alcohol-based perfume travels as dangerous goods under UN 1266, which affects shipping mode and cost.

Cologne contract manufacturing

Traditional and contemporary cologne, in glass or plastic. The minimum differs by vessel: 1,000 units for glass, 2,000 for plastic. Alcohol content and pack size decide the transport classification.

Room fragrance

Room fragrance and room spray for retail and hospitality. Room fragrance starts at 1,000 units per scent; room spray at 500. Vessel choice drives both the unit cost and the packaging decision.

Scented candle manufacturing

Container candles at 500 units per fragrance and per vessel. Wax system, fragrance load and wick are selected together — changing one changes burn behaviour, so they are approved as a set.

All products

Every format in one list with its minimum order quantity, so you can see where a multi-product range lands before asking for a quotation. Minimums are per fragrance and per bottle model, and cannot be split across them.

Destination markets

Manufacturing location does not move market-access duty. These pages cover what the destination market requires.

Launch in the United States

MoCRA duties for a US launch: facility registration, product listing, responsible person and adverse event reporting. These recur — facility registrations renew every two years and listing information is updated annually.

Launch in the United Kingdom

Great Britain needs a UK Responsible Person, an SCPN notification and GB-specific labelling. An EU notification does not carry over; the two regimes are notified separately.

Launch in the European Union

An EU-established Responsible Person, a safety assessment, a product information file and a CPNP notification. Who holds the Responsible Person role decides who carries the legal duty, so it is agreed before artwork is printed.

Hotel fragrance supplier

Signature scent programmes for hotels and hospitality groups: amenity formats, room fragrance and reorder planning across properties. Consistency between reorders matters more here than in retail.

Cost and commercial planning

What a quotation has to cover before you can compare two manufacturers honestly.

Perfume brand startup costs

The cost lines a first production run actually carries: fragrance, bottle, closure, decoration, packaging, filling, compliance work and freight. Written so you can read a quotation line by line instead of comparing a single headline figure.

Cost and minimum order quantity

Why minimums exist and how they behave across a range. A minimum applies per fragrance and per bottle model: three bottle models are three separate minimums, not one shared quantity.

Reference

Terminology that comes up in specifications and quotations.

Perfume glossary

Fragrance and manufacturing terms defined for procurement, not for enthusiasts — the words that appear in a specification sheet, a quotation or a compliance document.

EDP, EDT and concentration

What separates eau de parfum from eau de toilette, how concentration is expressed commercially, and why the same fragrance quoted at two concentrations gives two different unit costs.

Dry down

The final stage of a fragrance on skin, and why it is assessed on a wear test over hours rather than on a first impression from a blotter.

Oud

Oud as a material and as a commercial category: natural versus reconstituted, how it affects cost, and why it is specified precisely rather than by name alone.

Not covered here

Manufacturing origin is not treated as a separate subject here. Where the product is filled affects lead time, freight and customs, so it is covered inside the three destination-market pages as a supply-chain matter rather than as a claim in its own right. Market-access duty is set by where a product is sold, not by where it is made.

If the page you need is not listed, send the question directly. A brief with destination market, product format and quantity is enough to route it.
