The situation

Fabindia has long celebrated India's traditional knowledge, natural materials and artisanal heritage. Fragrance offered an opportunity to extend this philosophy into a sensory experience, bringing together the principles of Ayurveda and aromatherapy in an accessible product range.

The challenge was to create fragrance oils that went beyond conventional perfumery, with each blend designed around a distinct mood and its association with chakra healing.

The brief

Create a range of mood-impacting fragrance oils inspired by the healing of chakras.

The hard part

An authentic essential-oil experience at an accessible price point.

The challenge was to translate the principles of Ayurveda and aromatherapy into four distinctive fragrance blends. Each composition needed to feature carefully selected notes associated with chakra traditions while delivering an authentic essential-oil-inspired experience at a more accessible price.
