The luxury fragrance market has been booming all over the world. The higher the price tag, the more coveted it is. Insert, Le Labo, Byredo, Tom Ford, Diptyque, and so much more. Despite its popularity, the perfume world is the least transparent as the formulation is protected as “trade secrets”. So unlike skincare products which are mandated to list all individual ingredients, with fragrance, you do not need to list the ingredients individually on the label. Instead, it may be listed simply as “Fragrance (Parfum)”. So even if it used 50 different fragrance ingredients or 1 fragrance ingredient, it will be listed as the same on the ingredient list, FRAGRANCE.
As the price tag rises, and so with the consciousness of consumers, there's an obvious question we can't help asking: is it worth it? How do we know what ingredients they’re using if it’s hiding behind the “Fragrance” bucket? Are these fragrances even sustainable? How are they even made? How should a conscious consumer shop for fragrances? In this episode of Rewind Explainer, we are aiming to find the answers.

Thank you Liah and the team for the time and energy you've put into this video so we can have a better understanding for the products we purchase. You efforts definitely make me a better consumer for my next purchase. And I'm so grateful that you share the brands that are more sustainable than most so I can learn more and be responsible to create the world/environment that would benefit us all. I'm grateful that we have people like you to produce contents like this and on that note, the more the merrier!
Glad it was helpful!💕💕💕
Very interesting video! Although, I think it would have been beneficial to address the health concerns that arise with synthetic fragrances in perfumes as this goes hand in hand with why people pick natural over synthetic.
Thank you for talking about this. Sustainability is so important.
yes indeed :)
이런 시리즈를 기획하고 영상을 완성하기까지 얼마나 많은 시간과 열정이 들어갔을지! 대중적이면서도 이 산업에 꼭 필요했던 영상이네요 리아님의 행보에 언제나 지지와 응원을 보냅니다 😘😘😘
I've never been this early. Love the video, amazing topic.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Fantastic video 👏🏻
loved this video! would definitely be interesting to see more transparency from brands and learn how they source and create their fragrances
for sure! It's amazing to see some fragrance brands that are trying to be as transparent as possible
Liah, what a great video! Thanks for doing all the research and sharing it!! Super valuable information
Glad it was helpful!😊
Such great content Liah! ❤
Thanks Matthias!!
This was really interesting to watch considering my dad has his own small perfume business!!! Thanks as always for the great insights Liah! Also, the animal derived ingredient's history was CRAZYYY😂💀
Ikr!! Oh wow it's amazing that your dad has his own perfume business!
Came for perfumery, stayed for the economics lesson.
aw ty!
@@LiahYoo It's a masterclass but audio quality was a bit off tho.
Thanks for the feedback!
Super interesting! Again, thanks for making all this more accessible. Also again, you talk about land usage and in you sustainable video you didn't mention eating animals, which is the biggest culprit for the degradation of our land. I learned a lot in your videos.🌱
thanks you! x
약 1년 전에 향수에 빠지기 시작해서 니치향수 조금씩 모으고 있는 사람인데 이번 영상을 통해서 좋은 인사이트를 얻어가요. 향수 영역에서는 가치소비에 집중해볼 생각을 못 했었네요. 소개해주신 브랜드들에 한번 도전해보려구요!😊
댓글 감사합니다! 맞아요. 향수는 저도 생각지 못한 분야였는데 이번 기회를 통해 저도 많이 배웠네요!
So helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
super informative video!! i've always wondered why no one really talks about sustainability when it comes to perfumes, and the animal-derived ingredients... wow.
Glad it was helpful!
thanks for the research. i wish more skincare/beauty founders were as mindful of the earth as you.
You are so welcome!
This is Gonna b so Interesting🔥🔥🔥👍n Happy Saturday😀….
thank you! You too
Chanel use to be my favorite...and i still love the scent. But not buying anymore. Thank you for this! ❤
i stopped buying perfume from the big brands a while ago. unfortunately in my country (and especially in my town) there isn't much of a selection outside of these, so i'm not able to actually smell the items before purchasing. buying scents i end up not liking is wasteful both for my bank account and for the environment, so i stopped that too. oh, how i wish all these niche brands could be sold here as well.
I wish people knew how toxic fragrances are. I myself react really bad to any artificial smell, with strong dizziness, headaches, nerve pain, heart racing etc.
My body reacts the same to pesticides…
Also it’s “amber gris” the g prponounced like in grease
I only buy Molton Brown perfume. I think they're an ethical and cruelty-free brand? They use synthetic Oud, as far as i know, and which I absolutely love! Anyone know otherwise? LOVE LOVE LOVE you Liah ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh I’ll have to look it up! :)
Did you mention endocrine disruptors? This is my main concern. How to understand what's safe for health and what is risky.
we didn't look into the human health part for this apart from allergen disclosure mandates.
@@LiahYoo would be good idea, as what humans apply to themselves also gets into the general environment, of course.
Wow this is so interesting, thanks Liah! And could you please speak slower next time, it is extremely fast haha x
Whoops will do!
I don't see the links for the suggested perfumes, but maybe I'm blind?
how do you have the time to research this, AND run a company that is also so research intensive? i swear you have 30 hours on ur single day
I wish!! I have amazing team members who help with research and scripting :)
I thought they removed it on reformulation.
Are perfumes safe?
Yes. Before perfumes are sold they have to be safe, legal and compliant.
Look up “Campaign for Safer Cosmetics” and toxic ingredients that are in fragrances. It’s scary!!
@@aleenr4425 thanks will do! I have a sensitive smell so there were very few times I've worn cologne or perfume on myself. And someone told me perfumes aren't really safe so I was curious 🧐
💙👏
🥰💕
Our addiction to fossil fuels is crazy.
Our reliance is, for sure
Great video but very fast. Just would be great if you could speak slower😊
I’m the opposite! I always feel like people speak too slow 😂 so I like to use the playback speed to speed things up but you can also slow it down. Hope that helps!
thanks for the feedback! I never thought i speak faster but I'll def keep that in mind :)
Oh lord🤦🏻♀️
🥲
Don’t make videos about things that you have zero knowledge. That creates misunderstandings and controversy. Firstly, there’s no animalic perfume ingr in Chanel No.5 and most of those ingr aren’t allowed to use in modern perfumery anymore. Rose and sandalwood notes shown in those fragrances are actually created by ‘accords’ and not the particular unsustainable essential oil you quoted. Perfume noses can tell the popular Santal 33 is sharp and actually synthetic - not made of real sandalwood. When it comes to rose note, it’s usually mixed with something else like linalool, geranium.
You must have missed the part where she said Chanel is no longer using animal ingredients. around the 4:30 mark
@@oceanlbistill Chanel ‘no.5’ never contained/contains animalic notes/accords. If any, it’d be the other ones from the house. This is what I meant, even though it’s not the point.
