Perfume is basically a mixture of fragrant essential oils or compounds, generally in a liquid form. The important purpose of the perfume is to reduce unpleasant body odors and make consumer smell fresh throughout the day. The perfume market is driven by various consumer behaviors and demands. In India, perfume market is complex and has developed over millennia. Consumers of perfumes are presented with a vast array of offerings from multinationals, from prestigious brands to independent manufacturers. Some of these perfumes are produced according to traditional formulae laid out in the ancient Hindu Ayurvedic texts. Due to the historic abundance of natural aromatic resources present in the Indian geographic region, there is a glut of natural raw materials from which perfumes and scents are extracted. All these products are exported from India to the international perfume houses of the world, and are also being used by a broad segment of local unorganized manufacturers.

At present, the Indian perfume market is set to grow considerably and offer innumerable opportunities for new entrants to establish themselves in this market. The perfume market is operated by organized as well as unorganized players. Earlier, the market was overpowered by unorganized players, as India was a land of attars, Kannauj (Uttar Pradesh) being the capital city for attars. Indians were mesmerized by the fragrance of attars and it was a favorite amongst many. Attars are somewhat losing their essence to these products as new players are entering into the organized market with innovations like perfumes, deodorants, and colognes. Recently, a made in India perfume from Kannauj was launched in New York.
