Step Three

Pick Your Concentration

The difference between a 3-hour perfume and a 12-hour one? A single number. Choose your concentration, and everything else follows.

Your Concentration. Your Category. 

The ratio you choose defines everything,performance, longevity, and where your brand sits in the market."

EDT - Everyday Essential
15-20% Oil concentration

Light. Quick. Made for daily wear. If you're chasing volume, this is where you start. lasts 6–8 hrs

EDP - Premium
20-25% Oil concentration

The sweet spot. Enough depth to feel premium, light enough to wear every day. Most brands launch right here. Lasts 8–12 hrs

EXTRAIT - Luxury
25-30% Oil concentration

Rich. Heavy. Built to last all day. For brands that don't want to compete on price, they want to own exclusivity. Lasts 10–14 hrs

Step Four

Blend & Macerate

Pour the oil in, seal it, and now comes the hard part ‘doing nothing’. Most founders rush this step because waiting feels unproductive. But that wait is the whole point. Skip it, and even the best oil ends up smelling flat.

1.

Add the Oil

Pour it in slowly, at your chosen ratio - EDT, EDP, or Extrait. Keep it in glass. Nothing else.

2.

Walk Away

Seal it, keep it dark and cool, and leave it untouched. No shaking, no opening. Give it 30 to 45 days to actually become one scent.

3.

Smell, Fix, Fill

Once it's done, smell it first. Fix anything that's off. Then bottle it for retail.

"That's the entire process, no secrets left."
Congratulations, you're ready to start.

Questions

Everything a first-time founder asks

You can start a perfume brand with as little as 1kg per fragrance. We recommend beginning with our Discovery Box (₹3,300, credited back on your first bulk order) test the scents, validate demand, and then scale your perfume business from there. No large upfront commitment needed.

Requirements vary by country. To start a perfume business legally, you need IFRA-compliant oils and proper documentation. We provide COA, MSDS, and allergen reports with every order, the core compliance your reseller or customs will ask for. Check your local regulations for retail licensing before you launch your perfume brand.

Longevity in your perfume business comes from four things: quality oil (no DPG, 30–50+ aroma chemicals), the right concentration for your grade, the right ethanol (SD 39C / SDA 40B), and proper maceration (our 30+30 rule). Get those right and your perfume brand's fragrance performs all day, we give you the exact method.

Absolutely. When you start a perfume brand with RAW Aromachem, you buy the oils and base the brand name, bottle, and label are entirely yours. That's how all 5,000+ perfume businesses we supply operate. Your private label perfume brand is 100% yours.

Scent accuracy and cost. Clone (99%+) is indistinguishable from the original, the best choice if your perfume brand competes directly with luxury. Identical (92–96%) is the sweet spot most perfume businesses choose. Inspired (80–85%) is the budget, high-volume option for new founders testing the market.

It's credited back - the ₹3,300 you spend on the box is adjusted against your first bulk order, so once you launch it effectively costs you nothing.

Yes - we ship to 200+ countries worldwide.
