The fragrance industry, a realm of olfactory delights, is more than just about creating enticing scents. It’s a reflection of society’s evolving tastes, emotions, and desires. Largely influenced by shifting trends, the industry is fueled by consumers’ need for sensorial pleasures and self-expression.
With millennials and Gen Z consumers wielding significant purchasing power, they’ve become the target demographic for many perfume brands. Let’s delve into some of the most prominent trends steering the industry and how they resonate with today’s discerning consumers.
クリーンな香り
Today’s conscientious consumers lean towards fragrances that not only soothe their senses but also support mental well-being and sustainability. Terms like “clean” and “natural” have gained traction, but there’s a myriad of misconceptions surrounding them. While “clean” signifies a fragrance devoid of potentially harmful ingredients, “natural” indicates ingredients derived from raw materials. However, the waters get murky here.
A rose scent, though natural, might have traveled continents, leaving a substantial carbon footprint. Moreover, while some essential oils smell heavenly, they can be allergens. The misconception that ‘clean equals natural’ needs debunking. In reality, synthetically produced ingredients, crafted meticulously in labs, can often be safer for both the environment and health compared to their natural counterparts.
アルコールフリーのフレグランス
Alcohol, especially denatured alcohol, has been under the scanner for being a potential irritant. Its pervasive presence in many perfumes has raised eyebrows, more so because of the lack of transparency in fragrance ingredient lists. Denatured alcohol, while effective in enhancing penetration of ingredients and providing a certain texture, can be drying and irritating, especially for sensitive skin types. On the other hand, fatty alcohols, like cetyl and stearyl alcohol, are beneficial, offering moisturization without the adverse effects.
香水をつける革新的な方法
The traditional spritz is evolving. Brands like Wind Song have reimagined the application process, offering dusting powders, for a more personalized experience. The allure doesn’t stop there. Products like Chanel’s best-selling Chance fragrance has been transformed into travel-friendly gel format, with the gel formula absorbing into the skin instantly upon application.
Solid formats are also gaining traction as they can be more concentrated than liquid perfume and it often lasts longer on the skin, so you don’t have to reapply as often. It is usually less expensive than buying multiple bottles of liquid perfume over time, and finally, solid perfume is easy to transport and doesn’t require carrying around a bottle or spill risk. While perfumes for the body have always been in vogue, hair mists are now stealing the limelight. Their affordability, combined with the added benefits for hair, has made them a favorite, especially among younger consumers. The surge in TikTok trends attests to their rising popularity.
フレグランスのトレンドに合わせた鋭敏な処方
As the fragrance industry evolves, there’s an increasing demand for innovative and on-trend products. Sensient has developed ready formulations that align perfectly with the latest fragrance trends. These formulations are not only a result of innovation but also the expert use of our proprietary ingredients.
パフュームド・クリア・スティック
Introducing a fresh take on fragrances, the Perfumed Clear Stick SCT2410 redefines convenience and innovation. This predominantly natural stick is designed for on-the-go individuals, offering a unique, alcohol and water-free format. The inclusion of NATPURE® FEEL M-ECO ensures a smooth application on the skin, while the vibrant hue of UNICERT® VIOLET K7014-J transforms the stick into a piece of ornamental beauty. To ensure the stick’s appeal remains timeless, COVABSORB® is integrated, providing stability over time, making it a true blend of aesthetics and functionality.
バイオミム・ボディミスト
The Biomim Body Mist SCT2339 is designed for those who desire a subtle yet lasting fragrance experience. Infused with the power of NATPURE® SOL CRYSTAL, this body mist solubilizes the oil fragrance seamlessly, ensuring clarity in the formula. For those seeking a touch of color, the UNICERT® range steps in, offering a plethora of shades. The standout feature, however, is the inclusion of SENSISORB BIOMIM, a bio-mimetic color protector, ensuring that the color remains vibrant, encapsulating the essence of the fragrance.
色の香り
The interplay between sight and smell can’t be ignored. The color of a perfume can evoke specific emotions and expectations even before the scent wafts into our nostrils. From the freshness of green to the intensity of deep pink, colors enhance the overall sensory experience of a fragrance.
フレグランスの未来を切り拓く
While the fragrance industry is being swayed by emerging trends and shifting consumer preferences, creating a fragrance that taps into these trends is no small feat. Brands require advanced solutions that not only align with these trends but also ensure product efficacy and stability.

ユニサート染料による着色
When it comes to fragrances, the visual appeal of a product is as crucial as its olfactory allure.
