The new site places IFF at the forefront of India’s dynamic market landscape. This expansion more than doubles the company’s local footprint to 3,650 square meters, creating unmatched proximity to customers and accelerating speed-to-market. The modern, technology-enabled facility will house more than 100 employees and feature advanced labs, category-spanning evaluation booths, and a state-of-the-art sensory evaluation space. These capabilities will allow IFF to co-create winning fragrance solutions with customers locally, blending global expertise with deep consumer insight to deliver superior experiences. Beyond innovation, the site will be crafted to inspire, offering unique spaces that foster creativity and provide an environment of comfort and excellence.

“India’s fragrance market is evolving at an extraordinary pace — driven by rising aspirations, a love for premium experiences and a desire for scents that reflect individuality and emotion,” said Ramon Brentan, vice president and regional general manager of IFF Scent for Greater Asia. “Our new Mumbai creative center is more than a facility; it’s a space where creativity meets science to craft fragrances that inspire confidence, spark joy and build lasting memories.”

For two decades, IFF has brought pioneering creativity, leading science and consumer expertise to fragrance design in India. IFF’s investment in Mumbai reflects the company’s continued focus on advancing innovation locally while expanding its geographic footprint.
