Fragrances designed for tomorrow, which embody human and environmental values
Our teams work every day to develop our approach, our products, our services, our partnerships, to leave a lasting mark on our sector. Our commitments are based on 3 pillars.
Now more than ever, nature needs to be listened to and respected. Adopt Parfums works to preserve biodiversity, resources and the iconic raw materials of French haute parfumerie.
Born in 2021, the Colibri programs testify to our commitment to supporting sustainable ingredient supply chains, and supporting local know-how.
Our action contributes to the preservation of flower crops and iconic perfume raw materials. Our aim is to guarantee virtuous, sustainable agricultural practices that respect biodiversity. On a societal level, we are committed to and support the socio-economic development of our partner farmers.
As part of the Colibri programs, we're setting off to meet each and every one of them, in France and around the world. We ensure that each of our supply chains is part of a sustainable approach to preserving biodiversity and local know-how. These journeys are great moments of exchange and emotion that we are keen to recount in our creations.
Today, we are fully committed to the preservation of two exceptional sectors: the Iris Pallida and the Vanille Planifolia.
Committed to an eco-design approach, we create and produce our fragrances in France, opting for reduced, mostly recyclable packaging, and using carefully selected ingredients.
Our goal: Acting to bring you some of the most responsible quality fragrances on the market.
Since 2023, our alcohol has been made from French beet, reducing our water impact compared with our previous wheat-based alcohol. Our formulas contain no colorants or sunscreens. With our Fragrance Houses, we are making progress on the composition of fragrance concentrates by integrating natural ingredients from responsible crops and creating according to the principles of green chemistry
We are committed to ISO14001 certification, with the aim of controlling the impact of all our activity on the environment.
Our project? To relentlessly measure, monitor and improve our environmental footprint across every link in the Adopt Parfums value chain.
New perfume manufacturing workshop at Château-Renard in the Loiret.
In 2006, we launched an initiative to raise our customers' awareness of the importance of sorting, encouraging them to return empty perfume bottles and cosmetics packaging to the store. With a 20% discount offered to every customer returning an empty package to the store, more than 275,000 products were returned in 2022! As for our industrial waste, 58% is recycled today, compared with 49% in 2021, with the remainder recovered as energy.
With a view to improving traceability and our carbon footprint, we favor local suppliers. In 2023, 74% of our products sold are made in France. We apply a responsible purchasing charter with our suppliers to ensure that they share the same human and environmental values in managing their own business.

Towards greater sobriety and the reduction of greenhouse gas/pollutant emissions.
Since 2020, we've been supporting renewable energies, investing 30% of our electricity bill in the installation of hydraulic, wind or photovoltaic infrastructure. Since 2022, we've been practicing energy sobriety: extinguishing signs at night, using LEDs, limiting heating and air conditioning. Following the results of our carbon footprint in 2023, we are working hard on reducing air travel and on low-carbon transport alternatives to conventional trucks.
