Partnering with Brands and the Private Sector – Amplifying Social Impact

When fragrance becomes the starting point for building a better society

“Social impact only grows when we work together.”

In today’s business world, sustainability is no longer just about reducing waste or protecting the environment. It’s also about creating positive social change—something that every brand, big or small, can take part in.

At Scent and Sense , we believe that any business has the power to contribute to a better society. That’s why we’ve opened our doors to collaboration with brands and private sector organizations, with the goal of expanding our social impact in ways that are deeper, wider, and more meaningful.

We work hand-in-hand with various partner organizations to develop co-branded products that go beyond just looking good or serving a function. These products are made using raw materials sourced from local communities, and are crafted by vulnerable individuals who have been trained through our development programs.

Here are a few examples of how we collaborate

• Corporate gifts designed with a social story The handmade scented candles in your company’s New Year gift box may have been crafted by villagers in Northern Thailand who participated in our skills training.

• CSR gift sets with meaning These special gift sets come with a QR code that lets the recipient learn about the makers—real people in real communities whose lives are touched by every purchase.

Our work with the private sector isn’t just a business transaction. It’s a way to co-create shared value across three important dimensions

1. Value for communities Local producers gain income, growth opportunities, and a sense of pride in their craftsmanship.

2. Value for our partner brands Brands working with us can confidently tell their customers: “You’re buying something with soul—not just something that looks nice.”

3. Value for customers and recipients Gift recipients feel that what they’ve received is more than a product—it carries the scent of care, collaboration, and compassion.

   
   

Behind every product we co-create is a carefully built support system, developed in close collaboration with our partners:

• Selecting raw materials from the right community sources

• Designing the product to match the partner brand’s values and theme

• Training local workers to meet high quality standards

• Helping tell the product’s story in a way that is genuine and relatable to customers

Every corporate gift you send to your clients, Every co-branded product displayed on your store shelves, Has the power to change lives.

Because within every bottle of fragrance lies the story of many lives woven together in collaboration. And in every true partnership, there’s a chance to transform someone’s small world forever.
