OUR APPROACH

e have defined four criteria for choosing our concentrated essences: fragrance, efficacy, quality and best price.

Whether the essences are natural or synthetic, scent remains our primary criterion. That's why we call our company ODORA. What sets us apart is the authentic quality of our scents. Our lilac truly smells like lilac, and our linden faithfully captures the essence of linden.

Effectiveness is tested in all our applications. Even if a scent offers sublime olfactory notes, if it doesn't soak into fabrics during laundry, for example, it is excluded from our range. Some of our fragrances are therefore reserved for specific products.

Although natural concentrated essences are often more environmentally friendly, they are not always the optimum solution. Synthetic products can sometimes offer better allergen tolerance than some natural ingredients. The price of our scents depends on the quantity, quality and origin of the essential oils and other natural ingredients used in their manufacture. They can be all-natural, all-synthetic, or a combination of both.

We've made choices, prioritizing the high quality of ingredients in our products while maintaining reasonable prices.

OUR HISTORY

ODORA was founded in 2020, with its head office in Montreal.

Claudine's inspiration

Welcome to the exciting world of ODORA's concentrated embalming essences!

For over 30 years, I've been a passionate collector of scents. My olfactory hypersensitivity creates memories that move or disturb me, but scents never leave me indifferent.

The idea of creating concentrated essences was born one May morning while walking my dog through the lilacs in bloom. This moment of pleasure was unfortunately spoiled by the scent of commercial laundry detergents coming out of the dryers... and what if laundry detergents smelled like lilacs?

And so began my adventure! Accompanied by seasoned chemists, top formulators and perfumers with extraordinary noses who shared my ideals, I created my very first scent, that of lilac in bloom! Deciphering the wonderful chemistry of scents now allows me to share with you the emotions created by the trail of my favorite concentrated essences.

With ODORA, household chores take on a new meaning in your life! The experience of cleaning and washing will bring you softness and joy.

Inspire!
