For an EDP or extrait manufacturing project, agree the scent target, carrier, concentration direction and approved application sample before production. The EDP versus extrait concentration guide explains the comparison; request perfume samples to evaluate the intended formula and pack.
Carrier and concentration direction
We manufacture alcohol-based perfume at our Guangzhou factory, starting from our fragrance resources, your reference or a bespoke brand brief. We develop the scent in its intended carrier and concentration direction, then connect the approved liquid with the bottle, spray and finished-pack specification.
Concentration directions of 20%, 25% and 30% can be discussed for perfume projects. Ask what the percentage measures and record it with the formula version. A larger percentage alone does not establish stronger projection or a fixed number of wear hours: scent composition, carrier and use conditions also shape the result. The concentration guide explains how to make a useful comparison.
Specify the filling and packaging
Decide whether the required handover is ready-to-fill liquid, a filled product or a broader private label package. The bottle and pump form one working system, so agree their interfaces together rather than buying on appearance alone.
| Specification | Put in the brief |
|---|---|
| Fill | Target net volume or mass, unit and intended bottle capacity |
| Bottle | Material, shape, dimensions and neck specification if already selected |
| Dispensing | Pump, closure, cap and seal, with the intended spray experience |
| Brand finish | Decoration, label language, artwork version and outer box |
| Responsibilities | Who sources each component, fills, assembles and approves it |
A 50 ml bottle is not a 50 g liquid requirement. Density, usable fill and filling loss must be considered before converting a liquid quantity into finished units. Use the packaging specification checklist to collect the details.
Approve the fragrance in its final format
Request a sample identified by scent, version, carrier and concentration where known. Compare it with your reference under consistent evaluation conditions and record what to retain, what to change and which change matters most. For example, “keep the dry woody finish, soften the sweet opening” gives a clearer revision direction than “make it more premium.”
Fragrance approval and packaging approval answer different questions. The selected bottle, pump and closure also need an agreed compatibility and checking scope. Link the accepted liquid sample and the accepted physical pack to the production specification; a fragrance-family name alone is not an approval standard.
During scale-up, we keep the approved sample and formula version linked to raw-material references, processing and the filling specification. Our quality review considers scent character, appearance and clarity alongside fill, spray function and closure. Changes to alcohol, fragrance level or components are reviewed before they become a new production reference.
Plan the quantity and handover
Fravanta’s usual perfume minimum is 30 kg of liquid per scent. It is a liquid-mass starting point, not a fixed bottle count or a combined allowance for several fragrances. Bottle, pump, decoration and box minimums are confirmed separately. See how the perfume minimum works before comparing offers.
State the destination, intended quantity and supply scope early so that the product information, packaging and shipping preparation can be aligned. Delivery terms and timing are agreed for the actual project.
Start an alcohol-based perfume brief
Request a quotation or sample discussion with your target market, scent route, concentration direction if known, fill size, estimated number of scents and packaging preference. If you have only a brand concept, use the fragrance brief to turn it into practical development inputs.
EDP, extrait and niche perfume briefs
For an EDP or extrait de parfum direction, record what the concentration measures and evaluate the actual sample. Fravanta can discuss 20%, 25% and 30% directions; the naming alone does not establish performance, a fixed wear time or a universal concentration rule. Oud, rose, amber and men’s cologne are useful scent briefs rather than separate carrier categories. A pheromone marketing concept needs its own claim evidence; no attraction effect is promised. Choose a scent direction.
