Victor Wong – about future plans and snow leopards

Natura is much more than just a perfume house. It is a symbol of Brazil, a philosophy of harmony with nature, and one of the most recognizable brands in the world, born in 1969 (some sources indicate 1981 as the year of the first perfume under this name). From the beginning, the company's mission was to create beauty that does not harm the planet. That is why Natura pioneered the use of biodegradable formulas, ethical packaging, and the refill concept, long before it became a trend.
Founded by Luiz Seabra, the company grew from a small laboratory in São Paulo into a global corporation, owning famous brands such as Aesop and The Body Shop. However, its heart remains in the Amazon. The unique DNA of the brand is a synthesis of advanced science and the incredible biodiversity of the Brazilian jungles. Their fragrances tell stories of mighty rivers, blooming orchids, sacred trees, and the solar energy of this land.
The phrase "bem estar bem," which can be translated as "well to be well," is the cornerstone of Natura's philosophy. It is a striving for well-being in all aspects: for oneself, for relationships with others, and for the surrounding world. The brand actively collaborates with local communities in the Amazon basin, ensuring fair trade and preserving traditional knowledge about plants.
Their commitment to ecology is confirmed by initiatives such as carbon neutrality, achieved in 2007, and programs to protect millions of hectares of forest. By buying a Natura fragrance, you become part of this large-scale movement. This is perfumery with a conscience, where the luxury of senses does not conflict with responsible consumption.
To create their masterpieces, Natura attracts the best "noses" on the planet. Such masters as Alberto Morillas, creator of immortal hits, Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud from the legendary house Louis Vuitton, and talented Sonia Constant have worked on the fragrances. Their experience combined with unique Brazilian raw materials gives birth to completely special compositions.
The brand's portfolio is a real journey through different moods. The Una collection is modern classics, elegant and sensual floral-woody fragrances, such as the cult Una and its intense version Una Intenso. The Luna line, created in collaboration with the house Nina Ricci, offers delicate, playful, and romantic bouquets, such as the popular Luna Floral. For men, the brutal and charismatic series Sr. N has been created with smoky, spicy, and woody chords, as in Sr. N Ambar.
Where to start exploring the world of Natura? Certainly with the hits. In addition to the already mentioned Una fragrances, the joyful and refreshing Exsultate is particularly loved – a true hymn to citrus and greenery. Those seeking tranquility and spiritual harmony should pay attention to the meditative Desperte with notes of patchouli and cedar.
For connoisseurs of natural, almost artisanal chords, the Una Artisan line has been created, where Una Artisan stands out with its warm and cozy sound. And the Humor collection, represented, for example, by the fragrance Humor 5, offers unusual, intellectual, and abstract perfumery sketches for bold natures.
Reviews from brand fans consistently note several key advantages. First, it is the recognizable and high-quality sound: Natura perfumes are rarely flat or synthetic, even in affordable segments. Second, excellent longevity and sillage, especially in the Eau de Parfum concentrates from the Una and Sr.N lines. These fragrances last on the skin all day, softly evolving.
Third, versatility. Many compositions, such as Una Senses or the delicate Flor da Manha, are suitable for daily wear and do not overwhelm those around. They provide comfort and confidence, becoming part of the image. Finally, customers highly value the consciousness of choice, knowing that behind the bottle lies a serious ecological and social mission.
