Artisan and Alcohol Free Perfumes. Crafted in Nigeria for Us
Our Story
The Soul of Nigerian Perfumery, Hand-Poured in Every Bottle.
The Origin.
(The Problem)
For too long, the "scent of Africa" has been formulated in laboratories thousands of miles away, branded elsewhere, and shipped back to us. We felt a void. A story as rich, diverse, and vibrant as ours shouldn't be told by strangers, it should be told by those who breathe the Nigerian air. We saw a market filled with mass-produced imports and realized that the true essence of artisan perfumery, the raw, unfiltered soul of the craft was missing from our shores.
The Evolution
(The Solution)
Ubgscents was born from a sacrifice of time and a devotion to mastery. We didn’t want to just "label" bottles; we wanted to create them. We chose the harder path: learning the delicate chemistry of scent, building our own formulas from scratch, and sourcing the finest raw materials. From the first drop in the blending beaker to the months of patient maturation and final bottling, every step happens here in Nigeria. This is more than a process; it is a journey. We are reclaiming our narrative, one note at a time, telling our stories in a way only we can.
The Commitment
(The Promise)
Your trust is our most precious ingredient. Every bottle of Ubgscents is hand-poured with love and a relentless obsession with quality. We operate with 100% transparency, using only IFRA-approved fragrance raw materials and strictly following global safety compliances. When you wear our alcohol-free perfumes, you aren't just wearing a perfume; you are wearing a piece of art that is safe for your skin, honest in its origin, and crafted to last.
From Soul to Scent: A Journey of Over Six Months and a Hundred Trials.
At Ubgscents, we do not "mix" perfumes. We compose them. In a world of fast fashion and instant gratification, we embrace the "Slow Scent" movement. To us, a fragrance is a liquid biography, a story that takes time, obsession, and sacrifice to tell.
I. The Unveiling: Translating Life into Narrative
Every creation begins not with a bottle, but with a memory or a feeling rooted in our Nigerian identity. We spend weeks studying these stories, peeling back layers to find the "core." Before we touch a single raw material, we define the emotion: Is it the quiet strength of a sunrise?, The serenity of a hidden grove?
II. The Architecture: From Feelings to Notes
Once the emotion is clear, we translate it into an olfactory language. We search for the specific notes that mirror those feelings. This is where the struggle begins. To find the perfect harmony, we endure hundreds of failed trials. We discard what is "good" to find what is "extraordinary." This stage requires a level of patience that few are willing to give, often spanning over six months of meticulous adjustments.
III. The Accord: Building the Heart
Notes are just ingredients; an Accord is a soul. We weave these individual notes into a singular, proprietary accord that embodies the story. This is the "thumbprint" of a Ubgscents fragrance—a scent profile that cannot be replicated because it was born from our specific journey and local inspiration.
IV. The Maturation: The Final Breath
After formulation, we don't rush to the shelf. Our perfumes undergo a patient maturation process, allowing the molecules to bond and the character of the oil to deepen. Only when the scent has reached its full, resonant maturity is it hand-poured into your bottle.
"The sacrifice of a thousand failed trials is worth it for the one moment your skin speaks a truth that words cannot.”-- Ubgscents
