New Online Scent-sation
Phlur Selling an online-only perfume brand is a gutsy move. But for PHLUR, the unorthodox business model works. The local brand (pronounced “fleur”) shook up the fragrance industry when it debuted its six scents online this year. Instead of feeling pressured by a salesperson to sniff and immediately buy a perfume, customers get visual and audio cues on the website for an initial sense of each scent, then they can order two 2 ml samples for $10 to try at home. If they decide to buy a bottle, that $10 goes toward the purchase price. The concept is simple yet effective, and the fragrances are divine. (We’re partial to the Hanami scent, but let your senses help you pick your perfume.) phlur.com
