“ Fragrance connects us to our emotions, to our memories and to each other.” — Heidi Thompson
What is Scentsy Fragrance?
Scentsy fragrances are designed for every special and ordinary moment, because we understand that the true power of scent is its ability to bring people together. We want our fragrances to Warm the Heart, Enliven the Senses and Inspire the Soul! We use only the best ingredients, responsibly sourced and expertly processed, to create our signature fragrances — and Scentsy fans the world over are OBSESSED. Here’s why:
Our fragrances are complex.
Each Scentsy fragrance is composed of 30 to 60 unique ingredients to create beautifully layered scents that unfold over time.
Our fragrances are personal.
Our fragrance design team thoughtfully and lovingly creates new fragrances to help people connect with their emotions, their memories and each other. We analyze industry trends and our own sales data to ensure we’re offering what customers want most from season to season. We also offer an incredible variety to make sure everyone can find something to love.
Our fragrances are long-lasting.
Our Scentsy Bars are made with a custom, high-quality paraffin wax blend designed to give you long-lasting fragrance because of its ability to hold the most fragrance oil. It also has a low melting point, which means it doesn’t take much heat to release its fragrance, and it remains firm when not exposed to heat.
Our fragrances are safe.
We use a combination of natural and synthetic ingredients, because not every scent can be created naturally or sustainably. (Have you ever tried to harvest fresh air?) But we only use SAFE ingredients, so only good things come from experiencing our fragrances — like love, joy and connection. |
Composition of fragrance oils
Fragrances can be made up of natural or synthetic ingredients. Most contain both.
Ingredients used can be:
Essential oil:
The “essence” of plants obtained by distilling plant material. Plant materials include flowers, grass, stems, seeds, leaves, roots, bark, fruits, tree moss and tree resin.
Natural:
Materials obtained directly from plants.
Synthetic:
Manufactured materials. In most cases, the molecular structure of synthetic materials used in perfumery is identical to natural plant material.A perfumer’s palette has as many as 5,000 different ingredients from which to create fragrance formulas.
Why not all natural?
Because not every fragrance can or should be simulated with natural ingredients! Synthetic ingredients ensure the character of the fragrance remains consistent over time, and they help eliminate sustainability and environmental concerns. Two examples: Musk originally came from musk deer, which are endangered. And the quality of crops like rose, lavender or citrus can vary based on factors like precipitation and temperature.
Ingredients vs. impression
A fragrance that smells nutty might contain zero nuts — it’s the combination of ingredients that create that smell. Descriptions call out the fragrance’s impression, not necessarily its ingredients. It’s all about what you smell.
