Don’t you find that certain scents can bring you back to a time or place? They can also remind you of a loved one or a special moment shared. Scents have a powerful role in our lives and choosing a scent is not as easy or as random as you might think. A person’s individual scent tells a story of sorts and can leave a lasting impression.
At the recent launch of Scentsmith Perfumery at Greenbelt 5, I was immersed in so many wonderfully intoxicating scents. Scentsmith is a play on the words expert and scents.
Did you know there was a science behind choosing the right scent for you? Many things come into play such as your lifestyle and skin acidity. Things we don’t think of usually considering when buying perfume or cologne.
“Scents actually have the power to evoke emotions and moments based on our individual experiences. Just like how fresh linen sheets smells of home or how wood is more masculine, every scent has a meaning for us. And that is what we want to bring through Scentsmith – an experience that goes beyond their sense of smell,” said Kristine Torres, brand manager of Scentsmith Perfumery.
Their current product lines include:
- Fragrance – Eau de Perfume (Women/Men/Unisex), and Solid Perfume Salve (Women/Men/Unisex)
- Body– Body Lotion, Body Wash, Body Oil
- Hair – Shampoo, Conditioner
- Home – Aroma Mist, Aroma Diffuser, Aroma Candle, Loo Drops

I had to have at least one of these delicious scents and though it was so tough to choose I went for the fruity yet flowery scent of Raspberry Gardenia. The packaging alone makes it a perfect gift. After you’ve chosen your scent, a personalized label is created and is in cased in a wooden box.
I was excited to share this with my teens because they also love scents. Bastian liked it so much he’s been using it. It’s time for me to get him his very own scent!
Their transparent approach with its product line also lends to it’s sophisticated and elegant presentation of products. The simple yet straightforward packaging with its clear list of non-toxic ingredients, and amber-toned bottles makes it a coveted item for your dresser. Scentsmith personal and homecare products are formulated without parabens, SLES, phthalate, mineral oil, petroleum, paraffin, and DEA.
Soon to come scents are travel, skin care, and fragrances for the car. A must have are Loo Drops which will come in handy when you’re out and need to go number 2!
There are boxed sets that can be given as gifts and the perfume with it’s personalized label and cute wooden box are perfect as gifts and even stocking stuffers.
Scentsmith Perfumery is located at 2F, Greenbelt 5, Ayala Center, Legazpi Street, Makati City

I like the simplicity of the packaging. SImple but sophistciated! I hope to pass by Greenbelt and see this for myself 🙂
I will check out this store when I’m around Greenbelt area next time.
I love the packaging. I like the flowery scents instead of the fruity ones. It’s true that even in picking the right scent, it tells something about us and gives us a certain emotion.
