Vegan perfumes: a necessary revolution

|Milagros Oria Prieto

In a world where ethics and social awareness are taking center stage, vegan Fragrances emerge as an alternative that is not only innovative but essential. The beauty industry has been marked for years by cruel practices that subject animals to painful testing, a process many ignore or simply choose not to see. It is time to open our eyes: what price are we willing to pay for a product that we often don't even need?

Nowadays, most people are unaware of the suffering animals face in laboratories. Every time we buy a Fragrance that has not been certified as cruelty-free, we are, in some way, supporting a system that prioritizes profits over life. Before purchasing any product, the first question should be: has it been tested on animals? It is a simple step that can make a big difference. In our company, which prides itself on being cruelty-free, every decision we make is guided by our deep concern for the environment and, above all, for the ecosystem.

At divain, in addition to supporting the environment through the Planet First, we also create 100% vegan Fragrances. To help you dive a little deeper into this world, we bring you a post with all the information you need about what is a vegan Fragrance and how you can identify it to avoid being deceived.

What is a vegan Fragrance

Vegan Fragrances are those that have been made with natural ingredients and raw materials that do not come from animals and derivatives. Thanks to society's awareness, there are more and more laws prohibiting the use of certain animal-derived ingredients in product manufacturing. Although it is true that some, like gray amber, are still used.

These Fragrances not only eliminate animal suffering from the equation, but also promote sustainable practices that benefit the planet. By choosing these products, we are not only caring for animals but also for the environment, promoting natural ingredients that are safer and healthier for everyone.

How to know if my Fragrance is vegan

To recognize whether it is a vegan Fragrance or not, you should carefully look at the ingredients that compose it. A vegan Fragrance is one that does not contain animal derivatives like honey and leather, or secretions such as gray amber or musk that are often used to increase the fixation of the aroma.

These are some of the ingredients of a NON vegan Fragrance:

  • Gray amber: the gray amber notes contained in some fragrances come from a secretion of whales and sperm whales that they expel into the sea.
  • Musk: with a quite intense aroma, musk is an ingredient obtained from the salivary glands of the musk deer.
  • Castoreum: it has an aroma that recalls leather and is a note obtained by extracting the perineal glands of the beaver.
  • Leather
  • Honey

Difference between a vegan Fragrance and cruelty-free Fragrance

You should know that a vegan Fragrance and a cruelty-free Fragrance do not mean the same. While a vegan Fragrance is one that does not use animal-derived ingredients, a cruelty-free Fragrance (free of animal cruelty) is one in which, during its manufacturing process, no animal has been exploited or made to suffer. For example, Fragrances tested on animals are not cruelty-free.

In this way, a vegan fragrance that is only made with plant-based ingredients, may not be cruelty-free if it is decided to test first on animals.

No traces of suffering: The revolution of ethical aromas

More and more brands are betting on this philosophy when manufacturing and designing their products. In divain more than 99% of the Fragrances from our catalog are made without any animal-derived components. Likewise, we are also Cruelty Free, since none of our Fragrances are tested on animals.
