No longer confined to ostentatious displays or occasional indulgences, women’s luxury is evolving into an 'essential' component of daily life, deeply intertwined with personal well-being and self-expression. The feminine desire to not just engage into daily routines but also express their unique identities through each item & accessory they own or wear, is creating a space for something specific in the self-care luxury sphere that is both indulgent and responsible. This progress moves beyond superficial acquisition, and positions hair perfumes as a compelling new avenue for women to own their vibe and shape their feminine energy.
These roots do run deep…
The practice of scenting hair is not a modern invention but a tradition. From Ancient Egypt, where perfumery was an essential in religious ceremonies and personal grooming to modern day, the practice of scenting the hair can be found spanning diverse civilizations across millennia. But India holds a particularly rich and ancient heritage in hair care, a tradition that predates many other civilizations. Ancient Indian perfumers were masters at extracting fragrant essences from a variety of natural sources like flowers, herbs, and spices. These essences were then skilfully blended with oils, and popular scents including sandalwood, jasmine, and rose which were then sprayed onto a woman’s hair or her hair was doused in their burning smoke.
As an Indian Woman, Your Hair Defines Your Identity
In Indian society, hair transcends its aesthetic function and quite literally becomes tied to your identity as a woman. From decorating your hair with gajras, hair jewelleries or simply flowers, hair is a multi-dimensional aspect of any woman’s identity right from her girlhood. In many families, if you have long hair, you’re perceived as more ‘docile’ as compared to women with short hair that are perceived as ‘rebellious’. While for other women, maintaining long hair carries sacred importance, and serves as a profound step towards embracing themselves and their freedom. One aspect, but differently embraced.
And adding an olfactory dimension to hair care through hair perfumes elevates this sacred ritual of self-expression to an intimate level.
Where do we come in?
The Indian hair perfume market was already valued at a substantial $399 million in 2024 and globally renowned companies Gisou, Sol De Janeiro, Chanel & Ouai were already leading the popular demand. So why did a brand like ours, specialising in Indian Raw Herb Haircare feel the need to craft a hair perfume range of our own?
Well, it was our commitment to formulating Raw Herb & completely natural solutions that got us here.
From beauty to lifestyle influencers, the internet is abuzz with discovering new hair perfumes. For some it’s a mark of luxury, for others it’s an everyday essential to keep the damp odor of the weather from settling into the hair. But more than needing a brand-new, ‘Instagrammable’ hair perfume to indulge in, people needed a cleaner & safer alternative that lets them dabble in everyday luxury without compromising on their hair health.
And that’s where we came in. We have tried to tie the time-honoured ancient Indian practice of crafting Hair Perfumes with our own style of minimal processing to give you hair fragrances that not only breathe in a fresh life into your hair but also protect and nourish it with each spritz.
What we don’t do...
While popular perfumes often contain high concentrations of alcohol, which serves as an effective solvent and quick-drying agent for skin, it is extremely detrimental to hair health. High alcohol content in fragrances can dry out hair strands, leading to brittleness, frizz, and long-term damage.
So, we made something that lets each woman exude her most charismatic energy without compromising on her hair's integrity.
We made a Hair Perfume Range that’s:
- Alcohol-free (Obviously)
- Water-based for maximum gentleness
- So lightweight & absolutely non-sticky
- Infused with fresh Rosemary, pulpy Aloe Vera & pure Glycerin to hydrate your hair
- Scented with the most delicate and premium fragrances
And here they are…
