Our Story

All about Purpos Planet becoming a Brand. In 1999, Odisha was battered by a Super Cyclonic Storm, Causing unprecedented damage to life and property. Among those uprooted by the devastating effects of this natural disaster were

our first-generation founders who had lost their talcum powder manufacturing business.

The adversity was such that it made them strive harder than usual to overcome this devastation. With immense courage and perseverance, they started reinventing their business by bottling up perfumes in a rented space- a humbling office-cum-warehouse at Old Delhi’s Sadar Bazaar.

Although nuances of strategic marketing were still uncharted territory for the founders, they managed to identify, select and blend perfumes with their natural instinct. In an attempt to introduce new fragrance experiences, They created exquisite fragrances in unique bottle designs at prices affordable to a wider section of society. We started with a spark in our eyes and an indomitable spirit to succeed. Over the past two decades, we have transformed the face of the company and in 2020, Being the parent company of RIYA, Purpos Planet journey has led it to become India’s leading perfume brand by volume & value.
