"How long does it actually take for a fragrance to be produced?"
This was a question posed by a customer earlier this week, who wanted an incredibly quick turnaround on a fragrance.
Sadly, the answer is, ālonger than you might thinkā.
Now, we appreciate that this is probably not the response our customer would have wanted but there are some very good reasons behind this.
Let us explain.
1. We donāt keep your fragrance in stock
Each fragrance we create is bespoke; perfectly adapted to meet the needs of your product, price range and regulatory requirements. We keep a sample of every single fragrance we create for quality control purposes, but we do not store large quantities of fragrances. To keep large enough stock of every single fragrance we have ever sold would require an unfeasibly large warehouse.
2. Quality
The other impact of storing fragrance is that there would be a potentially shorter lifespan on the final fragrance we provide to you. Creating it from scratch means that you get the best quality fragrance available.
3. Change happens
Regulations change and so do your requirements. As a result, your fragrance may need to change as well. Your fragrances may need reworking, adapting etc. and as a result, yes⦠you guessed it can mean the process can take longer.
The benefit of this is that we can be 100% certain that you are receiving the right fragrance for the right purpose. Also, by creating your fragrance from scratch means we can give you the most competitive pricing, as the cost of raw materials can fluctuate.
4. Need it in a rush? We will do our best.
Our incredible customer support team do their absolute best to try and work with whatever timescales you are working to. Their advice and guidance can be incredibly helpful and we encourage customers to reach out if they have any questions. New creations and analytical matches do take longer to complete than selecting from our existing library, but our team will help advise on the best ways to get your fragrance to you in the shortest time possible.
As ever, if you have questions, our team are here and ready to support you with your fragrance journey.
