With more than 25 years of experience in the fragrance industry, we founded Essential Parfums with a rebellious spirit and the mission to restore the essence of haute perfumery. At Essential Parfums, we grew from a simple approach: giving perfumers carte blanche to create, with no constraints or limits. We partner with the best master and senior perfumers in the world, carefully sourcing the finest sustainable ingredients whenever possible, to be transformed into olfactory masterpieces. The result is a place to buy uniquely luxurious scents at an accessible price — all wrapped in eco-friendly packaging. We created this brand to share a true passion for the art of scent — therefore, our priority will always be the fragrance itself, rather than the trappings that surround it (like fancy bottles, advertising costs, and licensing fees that tend to muddle the essence of perfumery). As for the ingredients themselves, the costliness and complexity of working with naturals makes them a far rarer find in the fragrance world, but we know that they are well worth the effort to produce perfumes that do justice to each note within. Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, which is why we focus on a precious handful of natural ingredients over a cacophony of synthetics.
A signature scent should speak for itself.
Far too often, they remain silently in the background, working solely behind-the-scenes with big brands, celebrities, and designers. Our mission is to celebrate the true artists behind our fragrance creations; they are our stars. Essential Parfums is a tribute to the talent, passion, and creativity of our perfumers. From their ability to translate pure emotions into scent to their unsurpassed artistry, our perfumers understands what makes a scent truly special. As with any other artist, we have asked them to sign their work on each bottle.
