South Korea Fragrances and Perfume Market to Grow at a CAGR of 6.30% During 2026-2035, Aided by a Rise in Consumer Expenditure towards Personal Grooming

Fragrances and perfumes have evolved beyond their purely cosmetic purpose. They have emerged as a pivotal tool for individuals to express personal style and character. This increasing demand for unique and personalised scents has significantly driven the South Korea fragrances and perfume market growth in recent years.

In South Korea, the fragrance landscape has witnessed a significant shift in recent years. Niche brands like Byredo, Le Labo, Diptyque, and Jo Malone have carved out a substantial position within the market. This surge in popularity can be attributed to a growing consumer desire for a more personalised and intimate fragrance experience.  Consequently, established players in the market are facing increased competition from these creative and aspirational niche houses.

Niche fragrances are crafted using a selection of natural or rare ingredients. These elements often require meticulous extraction processes to obtain their purest essence. Consequently, the resulting perfumes tend to command a significantly higher price point compared to mass-produced brands.

A heightened focus on personal grooming and presentation has led to a notable rise in fragrance and perfume utilisation. This consumer demand is fuelled by an increased interest in incorporating perfumes and colognes into daily routines.  Secondly, the growing emphasis on cultivating a fashionable lifestyle and building a strong personal brand further underscores the importance of fragrance and perfume.

Burberry Group (OTCMKTS: BURBY), boasts a luxurious fragrance collection for both men and women. These coveted scents are housed in bottles adorned with the brand's iconic tartan pattern, adding a touch of British heritage. The men's fragrances feature aromatic notes, perfect for the distinguished gentleman.  For women, Burberry offers a range of elegant perfumes that blend floral, fruity, and woody notes, catering to a variety of preferences.

Besides, The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. (NYSE: EL) manufactures, markets, and sells high-quality skincare, makeup, fragrance, and hair care products.  The company fosters a portfolio of globally recognised luxury and prestige brands, including Estée Lauder, Clinique, Origins, M·A·C, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, La Mer, Aveda, Jo Malone London, TOM FORD, Too Faced, Dr.Jart+, and The Ordinary. These coveted products reach consumers in approximately 150 countries and territories.
