About us

Our background

Olfactik is a UK based fragrance manufacturer and ingredients supplier. We are bringing over 30 years of our knowledge and experience to the retail ingredients sector for the first time.

"Establishing Olfactik is partly born from my experience operating as an independent perfumer. We have brought together skills and experise from the creative, manufacture and supply sides to respond to, and nurture, the needs of this small but growing independent sector." Russell Newell - July 2012.

Russell is a co- founder of Olfactik. He is also the founder of the niche fragrance brand SocialCreatures which he launched in 2007. 

Since the birth of the internet many industries, including our own, have undergone fundamental changes. Our industry has always been very secretive, and to a large extent still is. But nowadays much more information is in the public domain, via the internet. Formulas and even rare ingredients, are widely available online and a lot of information is now shared between a growing number of enthuisasts, creatives and independent niche perfumers through many blogs and forums. Olfactik is our response to this new landscape that is set to change our industry in so many ways.
