FRSH Scents Acquires Luxury Car Fragrance Brand Carfume

Two of the UK's most disruptive automotive air freshener brands unite under one roof.

We're excited to announce that FRSH Scents has acquired Carfume, the UK luxury car fragrance brand, in a multi-million pound deal. Two of the fastest-growing names in car air fresheners are now under one roof.

A natural fit

FRSH Scents has built its reputation on bold product innovation, strong retail execution and a fast-growing impulse and novelty vent clip range. Carfume brings a premium, designer-inspired positioning that complements our offering perfectly. Together, the two brands cover the full market spectrum from mass appeal to luxury lifestyle.

This isn't a bolt-on acquisition. It's a genuine strategic fit.

What this means for FRSH Scents

Through the wider Simply Brands group, we can now leverage an even stronger retail network and international distribution infrastructure spanning the UK, USA, Europe and Asia. This accelerates new product development and opens up new opportunities to scale both brands across global markets.

Ollie Page of FRSH Scents said: "Carfume and FRSH Scents sit together exceptionally well. Two of the most disruptive, high-growth brands in the air freshener category, with complementary strengths and a shared ambition to challenge the status quo."

Carfume continues to grow

Carfume will continue to operate from the UK with its existing team in place as the brand enters its next phase of growth under FRSH Scents.

Sean Mallon, Owner of Carfume, added: "Joining forces with FRSH Scents feels like a perfect fit. They share our energy and are disrupting the category in their own right. Two leading air freshener brands, both growing fast, now pulling in the same direction."

The road ahead

This acquisition strengthens our position as one of the fastest-growing forces in automotive consumer goods globally. It also signals our ambition to keep challenging the status quo at home and internationally.
