Asia Pacific

A diverse fragrance region with global reach.

The Asia-Paci­fic is one of the most diver­se and dyna­mic fra­gran­ce regions in the world — fra­gran­ce plays a gro­wing role in the lives of its peo­ple, cul­tu­res, and economies.

From san­dal­wood in Aus­tra­lia and veti­ver in Indo­ne­sia to jas­mi­ne in India and tea extracts in Chi­na, the region is home to some of the world’s most trea­su­red fra­gran­ce ingre­dients. It is also a rising hub for inno­va­tion, manu­fac­tu­ring, and con­su­mer demand — with vibrant mar­kets and emer­ging trends sha­ping the futu­re of fragrance.
