We care — about people’s health and wellbeing, and the environment we all share. That’s why we avoid the mysterious “fragrance” ingredient. Let’s dig into 5 reasons why.
1. Fragrance = hidden cocktail
One word—“fragrance” or "parfum"—can legally hide dozens or even hundreds of petrochemical compounds.
At Biome: Every product we stock lists its full scent ingredients (which are only essential oils), or contains no scent at all.
2. Small doses add up
From shampoo to laundry powder, candles to bin liners, fragrance is everywhere. Together they create cumulative exposure.
At Biome: Our products never add to that daily load—so your home can be a place to breathe easier.
3. Health impacts are real
Synthetic fragrance is linked to headaches, allergies, asthma flare-ups, hormone disruption, and more.
At Biome: We choose only pure essential oils or unscented products to avoid unnecessary risks.
4. It pollutes our air & water
Fragrance chemicals contribute to indoor air pollution and enter waterways when washed away.
At Biome: No synthetic fragrance means fewer petrochemicals in your home, air, and environment.
5. Fragrance-free spaces are kinder
They’re more inclusive for people with sensitivities and healthier for everyone.
At Biome: We encourage our team not to wear scented products at work. And of course, we don't bombard our customers with heady synthetic smells in our stores.
The difference is amazing—every day, visitors ask, “What’s that beautiful smell?” They’re noticing what’s missing: that sharp, sickly-sweet edge common in many indoor spaces.
