Fragrance is an important part of our experience of living. Our sense of smell is connected with emotion. A smell can create a mood or evoke significant memories of a person, time or place which means something to us.
Inhaling artificial fragrance from our personal care products or cleaning products could be masking our natural sense of smell and affect our natural experience of the world.
A single word “Fragrance” denotes a load of chemicals
The single word "fragrance" on a cosmetic ingredients list - be it skin care product, makeup, or perfume can mean a formula that comprises hundreds of chemicals many of which can get absorbed through your skin and get inside your body and cause health problems and allergies. Manufacturers are not legally bound to disclose the full ingredients of a fragrance because it is a secret brand formula. So the consumer will never know what is in their product.
To avoid synthetic fragrance choose an organic natural brand. Having a certification such as Soil Association, BDIH or Ecocert will ensure that it doesnt have synthetic fragrance. At suvarna, of course, we don’t sell any products with synthetic fragrance, only natural fragrance from plant extracts and essential oils.
I feel it's absolutely unnecessary to create synthetic scent given the wealth of lovely fragrance available from nature from pure essential plant oils. Essential oils are more expensive than chemical fragrance which is a motivation to the profit driven chemical cosmetic manufacturers.
Unscented can mean extra chemicals added
Some petrochemical cosmetic products which are marketed as unscented can mean that they use a lot of chemical fragrance to mask the natural (or unnatural) scent of the other chemicals. It may be advertised as a simple, gentle product but it is actually complicated to make something with no smell.
When natural organic cosmetics brands state unscented, on the other hand, this usually means it is without essential oils.
Perfume from essential oils creates a holistic effect
Since aromatherapy has become more mainstream many of us are aware that essential oils applied to the skin are absorbed in to the body and have powerful therapeutic properties. And we know how they can create a mood - relaxing, de-stressing. healing or stimulating effect. Natural cosmetics with essential oils therefore give us more than superficial beauty and healthy skin but have a holistic therapeutic effect on the whole body, mind and emotions.
At Suvarna we sell totally natural organic perfumes and eau de toilettes from Farfalla, Lavera and Florascent.
