EcoScent Compass® Next Generation
A breakthrough in fragrance sustainability and transparency
Meeting consumers needs and demands for conscious fragrances and now enabling a higher degree of precision in sustainable creation.
All sustainability challenges, from climate change, biodiversity, traceability, to social responsibility, require data to assess impact and set a baseline for improvement. With the next generation of EcoScent Compass®, the team of Firmenich perfumers can formulate responsibly by optimizing fragrance designs, at the very beginning of creation, with more than 80 data points for each ingredient and three key pillars: circular creation, climate, and nature, and impact on people and community.
The additional data points support a more precise and complete sustainability view of the fragrance. Firmenich perfumers find that the integration of EcoScent Compass® into their workstations, a feature unique to the company, is a significant enabler to design beautifully smelling, conscious fragrances.
Today, in its efforts to be #1 in Conscious Perfumery, Firmenich continues to raise the bar in creating conscious fragrances and empowering clients and consumers with clear, accessible and trustworthy information through EcoScent Compass® Next Generation.
EcoScent Compass® Next Generation advances clients’ ability to communicate sustainable progress with consumers by translating numbers into claims and proof of impact.

The availability and management of accurate, verifiable sustainability measures are essential to achieving corporate ESG metrics and shared global goals. Challenges are evolving and what needs to be addressed today are the major concerns on carbon emissions and biodiversity. With EcoScent Compass® Next Generation, Firmenich is enabled to take the lead.
