Noemie Maury has shared perfume insider secrets
“High street chains can create perfumes cheaply by buying them from big fragrance manufacturers which grow their own ingredients in-house,” says Noemie.
“Because they use oils from flowers they grow themselves instead of importing ingredients, they save on costs and can create fragrances for high street brands at a discount price.”
Although this keeps costs down, it means the range of ingredients used in cheaper perfumes can be limited.
Noemie explains the main smell in budget perfumes may also come from just one or two strong but relatively cheap ingredients, like vanilla.
It means they can lack the depth and complexity of more expensive brands which use a wide variety of more expensive ingredients.
As the smell, names and bottle shapes of branded perfumes are protected under copyright law, cheaper brands can’t produce exact replicas.
But they can create budget versions which smell similar – these are described as being “inspired by” a popular branded fragrance.
