Bougie et Senteur provides complete contract manufacturing services for home fragrance, cosmetic candle, and fine perfumery lines. From initial scent concept to finished palletized export, every stage is audited for compliance and quality.
As a specialized French manufacturer operating under European cosmetics standards (ISO 22716), we combine master craftsmanship with automated fill lines. Whether your brand requires bespoke olfactive composition around Grasse, specialized vegetable wax blending, or custom vessel decoration, our technical team turns complex creative briefs into retail-ready collections.
Designed to reduce time-to-market while protecting your brand identity, product safety, and commercial performance.
Our in-house perfumers and cosmetic chemists formulate exclusive olfactive signatures sourced from Grasse essences. We optimize scent throw (6%–12% fragrance load) for plant-based waxes, alcoholic perfumery, or skin-safe massage candle bases tailored to IFRA regulatory categories.
Access an extensive library of glass vessels, porcelain containers, metal tins, and diffuser bottles. We offer tailor-made customization options including internal/external lacquering (Pantone matching), screen printing, hot foil stamping, laser engraving, and eco-designed secondary packaging.
Utilizing proprietary 100% vegetable wax formulations (rapeseed, soy, coconut) and cotton/wooden wicks pre-tested for burn symmetry. Our temperature-controlled pouring process prevents surface sinkholes and frosting, delivering immaculate surface finishes across large batch runs.
Full regulatory backing for global distribution. We prepare Cosmetic Product Safety Reports (CPSR), manage CPNP portal registrations under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, issue CLP warning labels, SDS safety data sheets, and conduct EN 15494 candle safety burn tests.
Clear benchmarks for procurement managers, brand founders, and corporate buyer teams.

A disciplined stage-gate process designed to keep your project on schedule and budget.
We analyze your brand guidelines, target price point, container specs, and target commercial region to establish technical feasibility and unit economics.
Fragrance accords are blended and test candles are poured. We conduct burn rate tests, scent throw evaluations, and wick stability analysis before sign-off.
Final formulas undergo accelerated stability testing, container compatibility trials, CPSR safety approval, CPNP notification, and packaging proofing.
Batch manufacturing under strict GMP protocols, followed by final hand-assembly, protective secondary packaging, palletization, and global EXW/FOB/DAP shipping.
Yes. You can supply your own glass vessels, ceramic cups, or custom boxes. Our technical team performs preliminary thermal shock, wick adhesion, and compatibility testing on your samples prior to accepting component shipments.
Our workshop utilizes controlled heating and cooling tunnels alongside automated multi-stage pouring equipment. Raw materials are batch-tracked, and every wax batch is checked for viscosity, melting point, and color stability.
Every private label production run includes comprehensive documentation: Safety Data Sheets (SDS), IFRA Conformity Certificates, Allergen Declarations, CLP artwork text files, and full CPSR safety files for cosmetic-grade products.
New custom developments take 4 to 8 weeks for sampling, fragrance creation, and lab validation. Once artwork and formulas are approved, full-scale production takes 5 to 8 weeks. Re-orders are typically completed within 4 to 6 weeks.
