In a world where ethics and social awareness are taking center stage, vegan perfumes are emerging as an alternative that is not only innovative but essential. The beauty industry has been marked for years by cruel practices that subject animals to painful tests, a process that many ignore or simply choose not to see. It's time to open our eyes: what price are we willing to pay for a product that, often, we don't even need?
Today, most people are unaware of the suffering that animals face in laboratories. Every time we buy a perfume that hasn't been certified cruelty-free, we are, in some way, supporting a system that prioritizes profit over life. Before purchasing any product, the first question should be: has it been tested on animals? It's a simple step that can make a big difference. At our company, which prides itself on being cruelty-free, every decision we make is guided by our deep concern for the environment and, above all, for the ecosystem.
At DIVAIN, in addition to being committed to the environment,we also commit to 100% vegan perfumes. To help you delve a little deeper into this world, we bring you a post with all the information you need about what a vegan perfume is and how you can identify it to avoid being fooled.
What is a vegan perfume
Vegan perfumes are those that have been manufactured with natural ingredients and raw materials that do not come from animals or derivatives. Thanks to society's awareness, more and more laws are prohibiting the use of certain ingredients of animal origin in the manufacture of products. Although it's true that some, like ambergris, are still used today, these perfumes not only eliminate animal suffering from the equation, but they also encourage sustainable practices that benefit the planet. By choosing these products, we're not only taking care of animals, but also of the environment, promoting natural ingredients that are safer and healthier for everyone. 
How do I know if my perfume is vegan
To recognize whether or not it is a vegan perfume, you should look closely at the ingredients it contains. A vegan perfume is one that does not contain animal derivatives such as honey and leather, or secretions such as ambergris or musk, which are often used to enhance the scent's hold.
These are some of the ingredients in a NON-vegan perfume:
- Ambergris: The ambergris notes found in some fragrances come from a secretion that whales and sperm whales expel into the sea.
- Musk: With a rather intense aroma, musk is an ingredient obtained from the salivary glands of musk deer.
- Castoreum: It has a leathery scent and is a note obtained by extracting the perineal glands of the beaver.
- Leather
- Honey
Difference between a vegan perfume and a cruelty-free perfume
You should know that a vegan perfume and a cruelty-free perfume do not mean the same thing. While a vegan perfume is one that does not use ingredients of animal origin, a cruelty-free perfume (cruelty-free) is one in which, during its manufacturing process,no animal has been exploited or made to suffer. For example, perfumes that are tested on animals are not cruelty-free.
In this way,a vegan fragrance that is only made with plant-based ingredients,may not be cruelty-free if you decide to test on animals first.
No traces of suffering: The revolution of ethical fragrances
More and more brands are betting on this philosophy when it comes to manufacturing and designing their products. At DIVAIN more than 99% of perfumes in our catalog are made without any components of animal origin.Likewise, we are also Cruelty Free since none of our fragrances are tested on animals.
