What is Brand Identity?
A brand can be described as an intangible asset that represents the goods or services of a business. Brands are used to differentiate one product from another and help consumers identify what they want. A strong, well-known brand is typically associated with high-quality products and services.
Brand identity is often associated with marketing and advertising campaigns that can make them more recognizable in public perception than their competitors’ brands and are the emotional bonds that people form with products, services, and companies. They are built through associations, experience, and expectations. At Scent Company, we believe that creating multisensory experiences creates memories that build strong relationships between your company and its customers.
Why Should Brands use Scent to Establish an Identity?
The power of scent has been documented in a variety of ways. In the article “How Scents Affect You“, Dr. Alan Hirsch talks about how smell can affect your mood, memories and even appetite. It is something that we are all exposed to on a daily basis, yet many of us don’t realize just how powerful it really is.
It’s important for luxury businesses to understand the impact scents can have on their customers’ experience – which makes using them as an identifier more than worth it! As the world of luxury business evolves, so does the importance of establishing an identity. The use of scent is a powerful way to set yourself apart from your competition and establish that all-important sense of place.
How do you create a tailor-made fragrance for your brand?
Determine your brand’s personality and your ideal customer. It’s important to understand the personality of your brand and who you’re selling to. Once you know this information, it will be easier for you to start to identify your olfactory logo.
Choose a scent family for your signature that reflects your brand and your ideal customer’s personality; fresh, floral, oriental etc. To this, select the notes you want to include in your fragrance usually starting with a base note. After choosing the perfect base note, complementing “middle notes” are added such as florals, woodsy, or fruity scents.
Discuss with your perfumer the list of ingredients that will be used and their concentrations. There are a few things that you should keep in mind when it comes to ingredients. The perfumer should be willing to discuss with you the list of ingredients that will be used and their concentration. He or she may also suggest using different kinds of scents to obtain unique fragrances.
Test out different formulations until you find one that suits your needs. There are a lot of options when it comes to scent. A variety of factors determine what type you should use, like the location and time of year. In order for your customers to have the best experience possible, you need to know which types work best in your situation so they feel at home and enjoy being there as much as possible.
Who Can Help with This Process?
Find a perfumer such as ScentCompany.info that specializes in creating custom fragrances.

Create an outline with all the details about what you want in your custom perfume. What are some keywords that describe your brand (strong, courageous, productive, pampered, relaxing, etc.) or what you want your brand and business to convey to your customers. Work closely with your perfumer to ensure that you are pleased with the final product.
