MANE is a long-standing multinational fragrance house. The company got its start in 1871 and continues to operate today as a family-owned business with headquarters in France. MANE creates original fragrances for hair care, skin care, color cosmetics, and numerous other beauty, personal care, and consumers goods products.
Miranda Gordon, vice president of marketing in the fine fragrance division at MANE, speaks to the importance of fragrance (in an off-camera exchange with Cosmetics Design), saying, “Today, your brand should smell like your brand—regardless of price point or where you’re sold,” and she adds that, “Ultimately, whether your brand is playing in the fine fragrance space, in skincare, haircare, color, or any other beauty category, your identity can be communicated through all the senses. Invite your customer to connect with you through scent.”
Beyond the aroma, MANE offers brands access to their network of industry partners and an array of support services. And this is where Gordon comes in: “My role,” she says, “is to provide clients with anything they need to be successful, whether that is data to justify new positioning, or language to talk about your fragrance, or support in selling through a sustainability story, or gorgeous images to…express fragrance in a digital context.”
