FAQ

At present, OBVIOUS bottles are not refillable. They have been designed to be taken apart so that you can eventually refill them. However, we are not currently able to offer refills. This project is under way, and we will keep you informed of its progress.

Nevertheless, our bottles are recyclable! You can recycle your bottles while you wait for refills. As explained above, you can take them apart: put the cork caps in your recycling bin, the screw-off pumps in your general waste bin and, once the perfume is finished, the glass bottles in your glass recycling bin!

Thank you for paying attention to these small gestures, which reflect the core values of Obvious.

Although we aim to create compositions that are as natural as possible, we use some synthetic ingredients, particularly to replace ingredients traditionally derived from animals (such as the musk in our perfume of the same name). Our musk is therefore synthetic, not naturally derived.

However, we take care to select ingredients that are kind to the environment and your body: our perfume formulas contain no stabilisers or endocrine disruptors. Our formulas comply with IFRA standards.

Some of our perfumes may contain allergens. To find out more, please check the "INGREDIENTS" section on the page for your chosen product or the product packaging. 

We do not test on animals. We also use no animal-derived ingredients in any products in our HIGH STANDARDS and CAPSULES collections, or in almost all of our MUST-HAVES collection, with the exception of UNE PISTACHE. For example, the Helvetolide in Un Musc is made from recycled turpentine from the paper industry and recreates the scent of animal musk through synthesis!

At Obvious, we do everything we can to offer you ethical, responsibly made fragrances

To minimise our environmental impact, OBVIOUS uses locally sourced ingredients from French producers wherever possible. For quality reasons, however, some ingredients in our perfumes are produced outside France, including vanilla.

Nevertheless, we are committed to using eco-responsible components, even when we cannot source them directly from France. One example is the cork caps on our bottles: the material comes from offcuts left over from wine cork production in Portugal.  

To minimise energy-intensive shipping, we do not send individual free samples.

However, if you would like to discover our perfumes before buying a full-size bottle, you can buy a discovery kit containing samples of our perfumes.

An added bonus? Delivery is free, and you’ll receive a discount worth approximately the price of the discovery set to use on your next OBVIOUS purchase!
