The fragrance refill station offers a total of 8 well-known fragrances, including YSL, Prada, Lanc Me, Armani and Mugler. Consumers can refill selected fragrances of more than 30ml in-store. Compared to buying a new bottle of perfume, refills can save consumers up to 35%**. The perfume refill station attracts many people who advocate sustainable consumption.
The Perfume Shop said that since the launch of the refill station, sales of refills have increased by 23%, compared to a 9% increase in sales of non-refillable fragrances.
L'Oréal's move marks a shift towards a more sustainable fragrance retail, while also meeting the growing demand for refillable fragrances. Some major beauty groups and brands are betting on the long-term potential of fragrance refills, currently focusing on best-selling products. For example, Dior launched the best-selling Sauvage eau de toilette in 2015, followed by a 300ml refill in 2020. The refill is packaged in a reusable aluminum bottle. This reduces light exposure and helps preserve the fragrance for longer, the brand says. Judging by the **, a 100ml bottle costs $145 and a 300ml refill costs $330.

Customers can use the ** water bottle provided by the store by paying a $1 deposit, and they need to return it to the store's smart trash bin to get the deposit back after use.
