Have you ever opened a skincare product and felt overwhelmed by an intense, artificial scent?
Many mainstream skincare products use synthetic fragrances to create a strong, lasting smell. But here’s the thing — synthetic perfumes don’t belong on your skin.
At Merindah Botanicals, our approach is different. We believe skincare should smell softly of nature — never overpowering, never fake and definitely never chemical.
Why Fragrance Matters in Skincare
Fragrance isn’t just about how a product smells. It can impact your skin health and your overall experience.
✔️ Synthetic fragrances are a leading cause of skin irritation and sensitivity.
✔️ They can trigger headaches and reactions, especially for those sensitive to strong scents.
✔️ Artificial fragrances do nothing for your skin’s health — they’re simply added for aroma.
At Merindah Botanicals, we choose to leave synthetic fragrances out entirely.
Our Ingredient Philosophy: Scent That Comes Naturally
Our products smell the way they do because of the beautiful natural essential oils and botanical extracts we carefully select for their skin benefits first — and their subtle, calming aromas second.
You may notice a delicate, refreshing aroma when you use our products. That’s not added perfume — that’s nature.
🌿 Botanical extracts like Tasmanian Pepperberry, Quandong and Finger Lime Caviar bring natural freshness.
🌿 Essential oils are chosen in skin-friendly concentrations to offer gentle, soothing notes — never overpowering.
🌿 No harsh, artificial scents that mask the true nature of what you’re applying to your skin.
We always start with skin health first. If an ingredient doesn’t directly benefit your skin or plays no supportive role in our formulas, we leave it out.
Gentle on Skin, Gentle on Your Senses
We hear it all the time from our customers — they love that our skincare is refreshingly subtle.
Our natural fragrances:
✔️ Won’t linger all day or interfere with your perfume or natural scent.
✔️ Won’t cause headaches or skin reactions.
✔️ Will offer a brief moment of calm and connection when you apply your products.
Skincare should be a sensory pleasure — not an assault on your senses.
