Natural, Organic, & Cruelty Free: What do They Mean & What’s the Difference?

Wondering what the difference is between natural, organic, and cruelty free perfume in Australia? As discerning curators of sophisticated, small batch perfumes, Sensoriam has you covered. Let’s go through the definitions of natural, organic, and cruelty free, so you can make the right choice with your next perfume purchase.

Natural Perfume

Natural perfume is made with scents derived from trees and plants. Floral and musky scents are some of the most popular examples of natural fragrance notes used by men and women in Australia. 

Although natural scents may not be as long-lasting or easy to recreate as their synthetic counterparts, they are much better for the skin and your overall health and wellbeing. That’s why sustainability and environmental protection policies have been implemented to ensure natural perfume can be created with as little impact on the environment as possible. 

Organic Perfume

Organic perfumes are not just inspired by nature, they are fully sourced by 100% natural ingredients. Natural plaint oils, alcohol, and distilled water are the main ingredients in organic fragrances, which are extracted without chemicals and tend to be plant-based. Natural fragrances need at least 80% certified organic ingredients to be labeled organic. 

Organic perfumes are made in much smaller batches than their mainstream counterparts, resulting in meticulous processes and higher prices. Although the ingredients for organic perfume cost more than that for regular perfume, the finished product highlights individuality and complexity that outshines chemical ingredients.

Cruelty Free 

Finally, there’s cruelty free perfume to consider. Just like with vegan makeup and hair products, cruelty free fragrances are not tested on animals. This is true for both the brand itself and their suppliers or third-party partners, as well as all ingredients and the finished product in the bottle. 

There’s no need to subject precious animals to painful testing in the name of good fragrance, which is why the cruelty free label continues to gain steam across Australia and the rest of the world.
