25 Niche Natural Perfume Houses You Should Know in 2024 - ORGANIC BEAUTY LOVER (2024)

Clean perfume brands like Henry Rose may be Sephora-famous, but did you know there is an entire world of niche perfume houses turning nature into olfactive art? These hidden gems are well kept secrets within the fragrance community, largely untouched by capitalism (thank goodness) so they can remain true to their roots and produce in small batches to the highest standards.

For these independent (indie) perfumers, fragrance is their art, and just like a jeweler wouldn’t use plastic beads for their creations, neither would a perfumer use cheap materials.Scent isn’t just scent in a world that demands complete creative freedom and the rarest, finest materials – it’s a sensation, a collision of the psychological and physical – and it always keeps you coming back for more. You’ll often find the unconventional and eccentric in their work, which can only be described as olfactory art, and that’s the beauty of it.

If you’re looking for a fragrance that isn’t worn by a million other people and that smells like nothing you’ve ever smelt before, keep reading.Disclaimer: I have not tried all these brands (yet!) but each one is reputable and/or award-winning.

La Fleur By Livvy

Founded in 2013, La Fleur By Livvy is a niche perfume house based in Colorado making natural fragrances inspired by places and memories. From Paris to Hawaii and India to Cuba, La Fleur By Livvy’s scents transport using botanical raw ingredients. They label each perfume as either natural to indicate all natural or “mixed media” to indicate if a small percentage of synthetics are used. The latter still has a composition of 80-90% natural ingredients. My favorite is their “Parisian Affair” fragrance, which is an animalic, sensuous scent of vanilla, lilac, champaka, and a dash of pine blended together with a generous shot of cognac. It’s completely addicting, with something dirty, raw, sensual and it’s totally wearable.

Neshama Perfume

I asked the founder directly for Neshama’s backstory:

The word ‘Neshama’ means soul, or breathing – the most natural human function and the first and last thing we do – we chose the name to both reflect our love of naturals in our perfumery and to represent the unique soul of each of our perfumes.

Neshama is an adventurous journey into the wonder natural materials – we love using classical perfumery materials like Jasmine, Oud and Tobacco and giving them new life – creating exciting new experiences for curious perfume lovers who seek out the extraordinary, transformative and sensual.
