Industry Insights: The Role of Fragrance in Health and Hygiene



Summary

Industry Insights: The Role of Fragrance in Health and Hygiene explores the importance of introducing scents, and improving the sensorial side of consumption in the health and hygiene products. The report focuses on consumers' motivations, and fragrance preferences for various products categories and sectors.

The main motivation to try new fragrances in household care and laundry products, and cosmetics and toiletries is buyers' curiosity. Unscented product options might observe the highest demand in personal care goods such as deodorants/antiperspirants or skincare, since consumers can be concerned about potential allergies, skin sensitivities, and harsh ingredients, often associated with goods rich in fragrances. A significantly higher share of women than men were appealed to scents associated with relaxation in shower and bath goods, whereas male buyers were more attracted to the idea of feeling energized by the scent of a shower product.

Scope
  • Fragrances are key features in a wide variety of goods in health and beauty sectors. They can help mask the unpleasant smell of some ingredients, enhance the experience of using a product, and can often enhance the product’s perceived functionality and effectiveness.
  • The interest in fragrances can be observed both in categories with high levels of customer engagement, such as cosmetics & toiletries, as well as in those where buyers are relatively less engaged with the brands and their offers, such as household care & laundry products.
  • Calm, relaxed, and refreshed were the most desired moods consumers wanted to achieve when choosing fragrances for household care products. While the most popular option for household cleaning and laundry goods was feeling refreshed, the most demanded mood related to scents in air fresheners in almost all global regions was calm and relaxed.

  • Learn how scents and fragrances affect product positioning, how they influence consumer preferences and what are the differences among scent preferences between various consumer groups, regions, and genders.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
